Hi !!
Well, I am imaginging that I won 1,000,000 ; i am gonna be so excited ...
Anyways, if I won that particularly amount of money , I will give 300,000 to a community of helping poor people ,and then I'll buy an expensive car for 100,000 probably PORCHE. Furthermore, I'll give my dad 200,000. Eventually, I'll open a little company with the rest of 1,000,000.

How difficult it is to earn $1,000,000.
HOW MUCH DO I HAVE TO MAKE MONEY IN MY LIFE?
If I had a chance to win the number of money, I will carefully look for a financial professional to deal the money. It should easily bring me another fabullous money.Then,if I were rich enough, I would start doing my dream.

I have never imagined I win a million dollar. If someday I win a million dollar, I will come to American to study MBA. It is my dream. I will travel the whole world. I want to learn about the culture of all countries. Will my dream come true?

i have never imagined that i won 1 million dolar. but as a supposition i will be always the same like me today, i still keep cycling to school, graduate from my university, and i will hard try to earn enough one million dolar by my ability. so i am worthy to spending one million above i won by lottery or something else like that. this helps me not be spoiled by money i have not to fight for.

my mind is maybe strange to you, ist it?
it is all i am taucht at school.

If I won $1,000,000...JUST GIVE IT BACK

Post by ashgore »

If I won a million dollars, I will give it back. Since, I would be confused on what to do with it.
1. Buy a car - have one
2. Buy a house - no stable life yet.
3. Spend it on school - don't think so.
4. travel the world - not for me.
5. Quit school - yes, with a million dollars in my bank.
6. Quit work after a bad day - most likely, with a million dollars in my bank.
7. Give to charity - some of it, but not all, i am not bill gates.
8. Help a friend - now that is the most ripping question. Of course, I would. If you help some, leave the others. Now you are only left with some and others is gone.

No question about it.

JUST GIVE IT BACK

SO I would have great plans to do...

When winning a million dollars in cash, I will stay the same not change my plans.However , I will benefit from this million by exploiting the money it things that i can't attain in the short run.
Look, when this moment came ,every thing would be altered.This is money that drags us to the verge of the hell by blinding us and keeping us away from fulfilling our duties for our God.

Well, if I won a million US dollars, which rarely appeared in my dream is a brilliant event. I will use those enormous figures with deeply thinking. First of all, I divide it into some pieces and set priority to distribute it self. Secondly, a hundred for charity activities like: give money for poor people's foundation, cancer patient. Thirdly, a hundred will give for my relatives. Fourthly, five hundreds for my family especially for my brother because of his business. fifthly, I spend myself a hundred for improve my knowledge on master degree in USA or England. The last numbers, I save it in bank or use for investment

If I win a million dollars, I will travel around a world. Do the thing that I like
Buying a house, a car, and help some people who get into trouble.
As long as I spent the money about 50%, I will send it to the bank to receive the rate

: :shock: :idea:
If I win a million American dollars, I will rebuild my house, because it is very old and has been for thirty years. Some money will are spent on investments, the rest of the money will are deposited in bank. Then I will go to study abroad. After finishing studying abroad, come back and find a work that there is no pressure. I would like to take a leisurely life.

Everyone always dreams that he/her can get a huge prix. Then everyone will plan how to use it. In fact, few people can make this dream come true.

In brief, I will use the money meaningfully and never waste the money on any bad or meaningless thing.

If I win won a million dollars
1. What’s the amazing thing; I was the only lucky guy. I win a million dollars in a game. I can’t believe it. `
2. If I win won a million dollars, I will travel around a world. Do the thing that I like, I will buy a house, a car, and help some people who get into trouble.
As long as I spent the money about 50%, I will send it to the bank to get interest
3. In brief, I think that it will never happen to me, because I had bad luck in my life until now.
I even didn’t get any prize in any game.
I really hope that my dream can come true.

I would invest, and use the monthly revenue to be able to donate my TIME and (in the process, growing) KNOWLEDGE all over the world, with no worries about living or traveling costs (I don't demand much), enjoying the trip, the experience and all the human feedback.
I would never give away my money itself - the benefits to the world and to me would last less and have less impact, let alone it wouldn't be as guaranteed. ;o)


Wealthy Cheers!

it is not a freshes topic but has its meaning. for many people who are still live a nomoral live, 1 million means a lot. for me, it is also a great number.
To use it in the right way is my first thought when i see the topic. Everyone has his own ideas and many are meanful and great. When it comes to me, I will also divide it into selveral parts.
some of them will saved in the bank of course. some will give to my parents and my relatives who help me a lot durning my growing up.some will be spent for my further study . Going abroad for studying is my dream,so I will choose one of the famous colleges in the world and learn what I interest.

Last but least, I should spent some of the money to invest something so that my treasure will not lessen but become larger.

I will probably save 70% of this number, putting them in bank for potential future investments. And the remaining 30% for personal use like video games,books,clothes,studies or also helping poor people.
