I would live my life pretty much the way I do now.. maybe get a few things to better my life and I guess i would want to give away the rest to the poor. I have very few needs in life.

thats good :) but i think our thinking will be completely different when we have the money like when you have only 1000 you will think to but the shoe that costs let say 100 but when you have this amount you will be thinking of the shoe that might cost 2000 and you wont care and the car wont be the normal one you are thinking about it now , cos will you be able to afford it , then things will change ,, even the house might change there fore the money will be spent monthly on sustaining this things ,,, unless you are prepared for whats coming :)

@Salamnda I have never wanted very expensive things even when we did very well. I guess money doesn't have that kind of effect on me.

@sofssu thats good, i was talking from a point that we humans , naturally effected by what we can afford , it might not wanting it , but being able to , makes things different sometimes

not able to spend all the money is never going to be a problem. The truth is the money is never enough. 900 billion sounds like a big number to an individual but it is not to the world. I can buy a lot of stuff i want. I can invest a lot of startups and donate the rest.

that will be more than we can spend for sure, but you are right its not a big number for the world, but its also not a small number when its put in the right places ,,, and lets not forget that the amount of money you have will change the way you look at things and the value of it ,,,

First I'd buy all three of my children a house. Then I'd send more to my Christian brothers and sisters who are trying to live under Sharia Law in Pakistan. We should only want more so we can give more.

Most of the money would go to my favorite causes like our hospital here. I would also help a lot of poor people to get them in schools and would love to provide water systems where they are needed. Of course, first I would take care of us here.

thats great ... and sure this amount will be enough to build a hospital and more and more , and might provide water to many million people in Africa , i liked the water idea :)

I would start by saying that I would not want the burden of having that much money. Yes I would say that it will go to good causes and a good life but I am not sure how it would change me if I actually had it. Maybe I will turn into a mogul looking for more, searching for happiness and the things that money can't buy.

the things that money cant buy you already have them all ... you will need just to embrace and look for it with your heart , and you will find it , money for sure will change who own it, but some will change to be better and other to be bad, and might be very bad, managing the money to invest it in humans , will be the best thing to do . i guess
