1 Billion Dollars.
Powerball last night was up to 1 Billion Dollars. It's difficult to image someone one day just walking up to another person and handing them a check that much. Especially from a lottery win. Now granted, i realize it's not the full one billion. Taxes... the Lotteries commission... the Place that sells it... it's probably more like half a billion dollars. Maybe even less. Still... Handing out a check for that much money is crazy. What would I do if that happened to me? Probably have a heart attack or stroke... I don't think I would throw it away. I think that I'd have more money than I knew what to do with. I probably wouldn't run out and buy a 20 million dollar yacht. It's not practical. I don't even have my boating license. I'd probably start my own charity.. Not sure what for though. I've had a few charity ideas over the years... between scholarships and organization. Hell... one day i wanted to organize a ton of people to clean up a few heavily used streets in providence. I used to go around telling people that's what I wanted to do. Not one person joined me so I didn't end up doing it. But... if I had a cool 20 million dollars lying around from the billion dollar jackpot I just won... I'd do it in a heartbeat. Then... I don't know.
What would you do?
