If you were given one million dollars how would you spend it and why?

Question

again this is for a pageant so it has to sound good, but not fake. FOr example saying "i would give it all to charity" is sooooo fake!

Answer 1

really where i live there is nothing for the kids to do , i would build a place where they could dance on the weekends, hang after school play pool or what have you .... get the kids off the streets.. mold our future into productive people not drug addicts and thieves... and with the rest i would take one family that needed it the most in my town and build them a decent home

Answer 2

I would save 40,000 dollars so that I could go to Havard colledge so that I can become a lawyer, and I would use 30,000 to build a local ymca so that The kids in our area have something to do while school is out as an alternative to drugs, and I would use 10,000 to buy clothes for the less fortunant, and I would use 20,000 to build a anamal shelter.



That is just laying out some suggestions, but I figured the colledge thing would be a turn on for the gudges and make sure if you are talking about poor or homeless shelter say something like the less fortunate,


♥Good Luck♥

Answer 3

Well, if it is for a pageant, supposedly it is from YOUR heart, or else it is equally fake.

Whatever. I would tithe it first to bless it so 10% goes to a worthy charity like Feed the Children. Then I would get myself out of debt, buy a small house and set up funds for all my utilities to be paid for a while, get my teeth fixed, get permanent hair removal in all those weird little places. Oh, yeah, and I would take a cruise...and pay for front row center and meet and greet with a couple musicians.

Then I would set up some investments so it can grow.

Answer 4

I would buy biological weapons and hide them in Iraq so Bush dont look so stupid anymore.

I would invest in small family owned businesses so that the average man can have a chance against big corporations.

I would buy 500 fancy hookers and start pimping in amsterdam.

But what I would most likely do is build a community center for musical development of children. I think that children that are in poor neighborhoods would be less likely to join gangs or sell drugs if they had something positive in their communities. It would be like a library except you can't take any equiptment unless you buy it. I think it would fall in the non profit category but it would need funding eventually and nobody would invest in a musical center in the ghetto. Except me... with my million dollars.

Answer 5

I would invest all of it because the interest on a decent investment could yield an annual income of over $50,000 and still leaves a million in the bank, while spending it all yields a bunch of stuff and no money left (except real estate while hoping the market doesn't crash)

Answer 6

I would spend it in the following way:
Give each of my five children a set amount to help them get started in life.
Pay off our own home.
Take 250,000 dollars and pass out $1000.00 daily to total strangers that I see do good deeds for others and keep it anonymous.
Take $100,000 dollars and help out with the homeless situation in our area.

Answer 7

what would i do with a million dollars? first buy a nice small house, buy a nice car, give some to some of my family , pay off my debts and put the rest into an IRA for my retirement

Answer 8

Easy, I would invest about 75% of it in stocks, bonds and money market accounts and watch it grow! The rest I would buy a starter home to live in and a small car until my money doubled and I could afford something better.

Answer 9

I would build a house, start a business that would practically run itself, and buy myself a car if I have any left give some to my family to pay off all their debts. and help them out with maybe a new car or somewhere to live better.

Answer 10

I would put it in the bank for an education and can have some monet to start my future, and def. give some of it to charity and to help others :)

thats exactly what id do!!
