If you had all the money in the world what would you do with it? Help people or Help yourself?

Question

would you spluge on yourself or help others

Answer 1

a little of both

Answer 2

well, if I had all the money in the world than the world, being use to running on money, would go into a state of shock.

I would spread the money evenly among the worlf so that everyone can have the same standards of living (home, clean water and air, food, education (free education-primary-post secondary), family). Although I do understand that we cant all be equals regarding financial situaions (due to the class sytems and the way commerce works) I believe everyone deserves the right to these standard needs of life.

Although everyone would have good standards for living wars and disputes would still occur. Humans are constantly trying to get ahead of the next person (whether this is a conscious or unconcious action). But it would at least slow the process of war, hopefully.

As for myself I would splurge some money on cds of bands of the 60s-80s.

OR...seeing how our world is so screwed up....maybe I would just destroy all the money.....
-sounds crazy...but after my first thought i realized there is no way to fix all the worlds major problems....might as well start knew

Answer 3

I would do both although I would take care of my needs and some of my wants first, then help others. I need to get out of debt, my mother's house, pay off my student loans and so much more. Plus I want a Mercedes Benz SLR, my own clothing line and I want to build more shelters for the homeless.

Answer 4

I don't want to lie, and say i would donate it all to the poor... I would spend money for myself and my family
I think I would buy like a small island for my WHOLE family, and build a disney world there... then after i'm done paying for college.... i would want to donate at least half of my starting amount... to different coorporations... or just go personally and hand out food and clothes, and toys in large quantities to poor families all over the world...not just africa..

Answer 5

I wouldn't want all of the money in the world. How would anyone else live? If I did have it though, I would make sure that the rest of the world was taken care of first because that would be my personal responsibility.

Answer 6

Honestly I would help people because thats the type of person I am . I am not greedy I am a christian and after all nothing belongs to us anyway it all belongs to God. He just gives it to us for us to manage over.

All the money in the world couldn't make me as happy as my husband and 4 kids do.

Answer 7

I would like to be comfortable. But... I have always had a dream & I mean like real night time asleep dreams that I was very rich & flew around in a big plane & visited people in need & helped them So I have no doubt that is what I would do.

Answer 8

A little on me. I want new house, new car. And good educations, homes for the grandkids.
Beyond that, spend on a cure for AIDS and on feeding and housing the homeless.

Answer 9

Well, first I would enjoy myself on Yahoo!Answers and then ponder the situation for a couple of years. I would not want to rush into any decisions.

Answer 10

I'd have a modest house, in the country, and set up a foundation that truly helped other veterans as opposed to the so-called charitable organizations that pay lip-service to vets, who say thanks for getting your legs blown off, now piss off. That goes for all of you who have "We support our troops" stickers on their cars. Piss off.

Answer 11

With all the money in the world I would do both.
