What would you do if you'd win the lottery?

Answer 1

i would give the half of it to poor people and other half for a trip around the world

Answer 2

I've actually researched what lottery winners did with their winnings (for a newspaper article I wrote).

Here's what I found:

From the 10 winners I interviewed/researched -
only 2 were happy.

Two committed suicide less than 5 years from winning.
Three winners declared bankruptcy within 7 years of winning because they were paid an annuity each year for 20 years and over extended themselves by purchasing expensive cars and houses during the first 3 years of their payments.
Five of the 10 divorced within 5 years.
Two were hopelessly strung out on drugs.

And the 2 winners that lived happily ever after?
they both used their money to set up charitable foundations that helped others.

What I learned is this...
you won't be happy, no matter how much money you have, unless you do things for others and give of yourself.
Selfish people are never happy, even if they win the 360 million dollar lottery.

Second, Buy my mother a Home and Land to have the home on with the Taxes paid for the first five years atleast.

Third, Open my Massage Therapy clinic and have it set up and running the way I know it would be the most successful.
