If I had a million dollars...

obviously, just like many other average people i have thought about, at some point, what i would do if i had a million dollars, and what did i come up with? well, the typical answer for a farm kid would be to celebrate because my family wouldnt have to farm anymore. along with giving a hefty amount of the money to my parents and brothers i would put some of the money in savings for when i choose to go to school so that i would not have to get a student loan. One of the main things i would spend my money on would be travelling, there are various places around the world that i have always wanted to travel to such as Africa, Thailand and Switzerland to experience the way of life and culture there. I would probably go and visit my family in England for a while too. There are various charitys and organizations i would give money to also such as world vision, the canadian diabetic association and free the children. after using the money to do all these things i want to do i will save the rest for the future to help me buy a car and house when i need to. i would try and make the money stretch as far as possible so that i could benefit from it for the rest of my life. one thing i would really like to think though is that suddenly getting such a huge amount of money would not change me as a person, because i can see how that could happen very easily to people.

  1. Having a million dollars....wow....I would love to go on a shopping spree!!

    Some people do change when they come into a lot of cash....when they don't exercise caution. :)

    One day, just one day, I would like to come into a bit of cash that is unexpected.
