Hi my friends on mylot. Do you like money? Do you have dreamed of being a millionare? Ah,money is of great importance for everybody in daily life! However,do you think what if you won 1 million in lottery? It is a funny question. Someone says that if he or she won 1 million money,he or she will buy anything needed. Someone says that they will buy brand name cars,gold,or jewellry,and so on. Or they say that they will donate some to the poor or poor areas or to the charity. Or they say that they will travel around the world. Hhhaa there are lots of different views. What do you think? Please let's share,ok? tks!

I would not do anything crazy, pay off my bills, help my immediate family with their bills and then invest the money safely. I would also quit my job and work doing something I love.

if i won the lottery, i would spend the money wisely. At first I would save for myself and family. Then I would give donations to charity particularly to kids and elderly. I would also give donations to Churches. I would share the money to my relatives, neighbors and friends. I will travel around the world.

1 million US dollars or 1 million Philippine peso? There's a big difference in the value of money if to compare the two currencies, being the conversion of 1 US dollar = 46.41 Philippine Peso.
Now, to answer the question. With 1 million pesos, I could write-off my debt at the bank for our real estate loan. The left-overs, I will save for my daughter's education next year, for the treatment of my wife's ailment, for her pregnancy and giving birth for my next child (my wife is not pregnant yet and we can't make another child because we don't have the money for it yet). Some of the left-overs can also be used to start making our dream house. But in order to finish it, we need more money hence we might ask for another loan from the bank again.
Now, winning 1 million US dollars is another ball game. I could do more with that. And that will include giving some to charities.

If ever I win 1 million, I will first cater to the needs of my family and buy stuff for myself then sped quality time with my family on a vacation. I will put up a good business or invest on something. Share some to the charity and save a fraction to the bank.

If i win 1 million in a lottery, if it is in dollars or euro then i will use it to uplift my family from the mud of poorness. I will use every single coin for something that is useful and not to be extravagant. I will also feed the poor people, i will make party for them and feed them with lots lots of food.
