Only hypocrites would promise that I would do this or I would do that, but if they ever got the money they would love to grab it only for themselves. Isn't it a candid answer to this silly question? :lol:
Some people are born generous so please don't make your assumption like that. If they won't share it with the world, they will share it with family. How could one not share something with their family? Moreover, if you have a job and an education, winning money is not a big of a deal. It just adds more luck to your life. You won't die if you share something to others.

$1...... next figure seems to be too obvious

Post by Adhir Garg »

Hi guys,

Definitely who won't wish such amount of money.. Since I am in India so first of all 40% would be going in Tax (Thanks to the government, would like to spend money on themselves :? ). Then I would have amount of 600,000$. My relatives (which I had not known since my birth) would pour in and give me their "rubbish" opinions about spending the money.. This is another thing, that I won't even lend my ears to them.

Coming to the point, I would like to give 500,000$ for the benefit of people (especially schools/colleges in India) which are necessary.. I would like to give 50% of the left money to my parents, 30% to my brothers, 10% to my wife/girlfriend (definitely I would have some gals around me) and rest 10% would be kept with me.. for purchasing my gold and other lavish things (whatever comes, I would buy) :lol:

Well these are my plans !! How are they ??

Enjoy !!

I never think that i will have 1,000,000 $. However if someday i get such amount of that money, firstly i will share for my relatives. Then i will use some money for donation or raising fund. And the left money will be used for my business. So i can find many times as much as that money. :lol:

One million dollars? That much? Okay I'll share you!

Let me dream ... travel around the world and bring back a house of souvenirs ... give to charities ... share to family of course ... support youth-led projects ... build a school ... build a library ...

Oh it's time to wake up :wink:

If I won $1,000,000 that's a wonderful dream I haven't dreamed before.
I wish it'll become the truth.
If I have money I'll go abroad to continue my study in United State or United Kingdom, after that , I'll travel around the world with my family, Of course I'll send $500,000 into the banks, and a half for my own business, my family and everything I want, because You know $500,000 in Vietnam, It's really a big money. And It's enough for my plans.
God, I wish , but It never comes true.What a pity!

If I won 1,000,000,000,,,,,,,
Once, I’ll go away to other country where people live that I don’t know with my family and I will wait for a long time until everybody forgets about I won the money.
After I go back to my country, I will build a building that is the biggest in my country.
I will also go to travel all around the world.

Post by aladdin »

I don’t want to say such an ordinarily pure state, so if I won 1 million dollars I would look for chance to earn more money.
Most people never satisfied with just 1 million dollars. Most people have won buy a lot of lotteries again and again and again. If person use money for themselves it is sad story because they never satisfied with them small wages. What is money? Money also be kind of weapon to earn more money. Therefore I would establish my company.
You would donate half your money for the poor? It must rarely come true. Most people don’t use their money for the people who we don’t owe responsibility. It was already proven long, long time ago. It is tragedy but true. Just few percentage people might use their money for the poor if they have zillion.

If I won $1,000,000, first of all I am very excited about getting the money. I will spend my time to think about spending the money deeply and counsel with my parents. After thinking deeply, I will make some plan to doing.
First I will divide the money into quarters, one of the quarter would invest to buy some estate. I think it will expand the money and then I will make saving account. After that I will earn the money easily.
Second I would pay the money for my parents. My parents bring me up until now, so I want to recompense for my parents. I love my parents very much, so to pay my parents is not regrettable and it is my duty.
Third I will go on a trip. After I came to Canada, I felt it is so great to experience another country’s custom. If I have chance to travel, I want to visit the whole world.
Last thing is to make some refund. I always think about helping the poor because I also receive the aid from someone who is not clear.

If i won Us$1.000.000 , I will probably donate a quarter of it to charitable organisation. In this world , there are a lot of unfairness, some people were born to live in some wealthy countries, they may not satisfy their lives,but at least i am sure that they have basic neccessities such as food and water. However, in some poor countries, it is sad to see that people even do not have clean water. Therefore, if i won $1000000 , I would like to spend some parts on helping those who live in poverty

I don't like this subject, cause it is a kind of daydream.
In chinese, it is called Yiyin, which means dreaming in the days to make yourself satisfied and be high.
After all, I like to be a doer.

:roll: Oh, c'mon! Everyone allows to have a little dream here and there. Look at the topic it starts with an IF. Anyway, a dream won't kill you if you know the reality or how to make your dream comes true. As like you said, life is tough so don't put more pressure on it :wink: .

OOOH! :roll: If I won such a planty of money, I would certainly go travelling around the world, and help a lot of poor people, and start my own business, and give several hundreds of thousand to hospitals, and of course buy a castle in Scotland ( or somewhere else) and OMG! I would buy a lot of things that I've ever dream about, and.. and...
and I would be sorry that I will never have any wishes and I haven't anything to aim for... (except another million of dollars) :) and so on...

Seriously speaking, I think the matter is not how much money you have but in your ability to be happy. Belive me, sometimes some dollars is enogh to make this world kinder and people around you closer. :wink:

Post by hello »

If I win one million dollars, first I'll donate some of it to the poor countries. this huge amount of money will indeed be a gift from God , so as a praise I should donate some of it. I will also save some of it for my future after buying a nice farmhouse for my family and a car for myself.

These are my projects if I get one million dollars.
It is unbelievable ... but no one knows what the God wants for you.... :wink:

Hi people! I think that if you want 1000,000$ that it is necessary to study well! That do you think about it?
My good friend, his name is Sasha said to me, that 1,000,000$ is unreal. He think that many people only dream of money, but do not try to earn them.

P.S It is Stas :)

If you want 1000000$ you must:
1)For the first you must have hiGH education
2)You must smile at your partners colleagues.
3)You must show the boss that you can work with documents and you can peform any work!

And if stars smile at you, 1,000,000$ Will be on yours to the account ;)

Hey, guys.
Have you ever thought that money in the bank doesn't automatically mean that it will increase?
Because of decreasing of the money's value...

I would order a famous jeweller to make two of the most beautiful platinum rings I have ever seen, and I would ask for her love.
If she responses, I would buy a nice house for me and her.
Perhaps I will go to China for a year to learn as many shao-lin movings and san da as I can.
I will let guys renovate my grandma's house, making it one of the most comfortable one in whole kunming.
I will buy a mountain with nice, high trees and I will build my grandpa's grave there, because his ashes haven't been put into the earth yet.

Then I would let my girlfriend, if she responses, control all the rest of this money.
