Hey there MyLotters, If you have a $20 Million. Given, Found, Won it, Whatsoever. What will you do with it? What will be the first thing that you gonna do? If i do have that amount of money, I will set up a business first then share something with my relatives. A lil bit of shower for my friends. Will get 10-20% of the money then give the rest to my parents ^_~

I've been a good person all my life - trying to help people and everything like that. So if I won that much money I think the first thing I'd do is actually allow myself to spoil myself. I'd buy a penthouse apartment in the city that I desperately want to own. That'd eat up $3.5 million, but I know that as far as material posessions go - it's one of the big things which would really improve my life. After that I'd buy my mum a house, pay off my brother's mortgage, give my other brother and his wife enough money to buy a place. I'd pay off my friends debts and give them each a set sum to do what they wanted with - to invest or whatever. I'd pay off my girlfriend's college debt, then I'd be with her in an instant and buy a big diamond ring and propose, knowing that I would never have to worry about our financial future again. I'd donate some money to different charities which I felt were worthy (probably a lot of charities which work with animals and conservation). I'd also actually look around for individual people who I thought I could help. People who could really use something positive and good in their lives. I'd retire and work voluntarily in a bunch of different fields. I've always been interested in paleontology, so perhaps I could give a donation to a museum on the proviso that I can come along on some research digs. Then I'd invest the rest of the money and comfortably live off the interest for the rest our lives.

If I got that much money, well cannot do much with it now as my husband cannot get around. I will let it lie for a little while so that I can live on a little of the interest because I do not want to go on a mad spending spree and then I will fix up the house so he can move around easier. He had a stroke and uses a walker, and we need it fixed up anyway. I will also donate money to our church, and then use it to get some new things like computer, printer, piano, as I am into electronic stuff. I do not know much about businesses, but I am interested in music and singing and we do not have a music store in our area, so would like to start one up. I do want to go to the East Coast, and visit my brother-in=law in Prince Edward Island, and I do want to go to New York City so want to take a cruise there. I am the parent and I have only about forty years left in me, so may take a cruise every second year along with my husband when I am not busy with the singing place.

I would pay off my house and my car payment, and then give some to my brothers and my parents. Start a new Business as much as I can and then help homeless people in my Country. There are a lot of things I can do with these money and I hope one day I will win lottery.

I would buy a house for everyone in my family. Then I'd buy a house and a car. I'd have like 10 million just to sit on. I'd probably spend the rest of my money on weed. =]

If I have 20 million USD, I will first set aside the 50 percent of this amount to give to various missions work that are reaching out for the poor and unreached tribes. That is about 10 million USD. For the remaining 10 million dollars I will put to savings half of it about 5 USD. Then for the remaining 5 millionUSD I will invest it to various business ventures.

I would invest it. Business mostly, but few other things like stocks. Those aren't as reliable as a business, but still its good to spread it around. Just spending it isn't very smart. $20 mill will go faster than you think it will.
