"Joe's Money"

Winning the lottery seems virtually impossible and for you to be the lucky one to get that winning ticket is a one and a trillion chance but If you were to either win or fall into some money what would you do with it? I potentially have a good chance of wining a court case that will be bringing my a decent settlement ( If I can be so lucky to win). I know I always theorize if I ever got extra money I would pay off all my bills and come out ahead but now that I have a good chance I just want to get things I could never afford to get before. Of course paying for a car that I desperately need is one of them.. But what would you guys do?

I would honestly open the best orphanage/children's home in the world with tons of amazing toys in it and LOVING people to take care of the children. =) I would help so many people that i know need food, clothes or a place to live. I would change their lives for the better. I would buy a home for my family so we would never have to worry about being homeless ever again. I would buy a bigger van so we could have my kids friends with us whenever we go somewhere. =) I would also pay back the church who helped us SO much when we were homeless.

@Castlerock34 I try to be like Jesus Christ, of course I fail all the time but I'm not perfect. We have been helped when we needed it the most so I do like to give back and help others. God has Blessed us very much, I like to thank Him with my actions-not just my words.

You seem like such a caring and selfless person who has been through an awful lot. That all sounds good, if only more people would give back to the community like that then maybe wouldnt have as much hardships, maybe?

Depending on the amount of money, I wouldn't run out and just blow it. I'd seek the advice of a lawyer and financial advisor. Good investments can make it grow. A good accountant can help with taxes! Good luck to you!

It wouldnt be a large sum of money I mean not enough to get a financial advisor or lawyer but its more money my account has ever seen. The first thing I need is a car and whatever I have left I would like to say I would put the rest away for a rainy day

I hope all goes well with the settlement for you! I would get a car too if you need one first with the money!

If car is really a necessity then go for it girl. I hope there will be enough to pay some of liabilities and something to save for rainy days.

That's a good question we all have dreams I will get this and that but once the money is in hand its really hard to decide what you really want to do with I always said I will buy me a house and pay off some debt. But the things that I want in that house is a different story.
