      There are a lot of things I could do with a million dollars. I'd invest half of it on properties and starting a business and the other half on charities and foundations.

      I don't mean to be the suckup here, but from what I've seen in my life, helping others out always gets you something in return whether mental or physical, especially when you're not looking for anything in return at all.

      I am not like such person who gone mad looking to hundered million dollars as it is not big money like there are so many people in the world who dont have to eat, nor they have home and education ( i am talking about world level) so if i use this money for poor people education, food & home at world level then it is very less.

        I'd be happy that my work finally paid off and that I get a chance to help tons of people. Besides taking trips and stuff.

          But more to help people since we're in a precarious situation in the world.

        I'd quit my job, start a film company and do a travel show. I'd also write and travel all over the world. It would be a life changing experience I would welcome!

        I'd go shopping, invest in local businesses, and start a charitable organization helping to prepare unprivileged youth for a happy and successful adult life. In just that order. I'd also buy a cabin in the woods and do some traveling.

        First I would pay all bills to be able to say I owe not debt.  Then I would ask my mother if she needed anything.  Then I would take a vacation with her and enjoy for a week.
        I would then sit at home one night with a cocktail in hand and write down who should I help first.  Of course I would invest some money too.  A little bit of everything.

      To be as honest as I can....

      I cannot honestly answer your question(s), because I am not in the position. So, everything else would be a guess and my reaction could be totally different than what I say here. wink big_smile

      I'm with Britney on this one. A hundred million will not go far. smile
      I don't need any money, but I guess if I had 100 million I could put it into building wells and making little farms to supply food for villages.

      I would like that! smile

        Here is a list of the world's poorest countries to the richest. 100 million dollars in the world's poorest countries could make a huge difference if you could get it to the people that actually needed it.

      It seems here all persons are noble persons! But would the people actually having this much of money think in the same manner? I doubt it otherwise this world would have been much more pleasant! smile smile

        cupid, there really are people with money who do noble things, unfortunately there aren't enough of them.

          I think you are right! The people who are fortunate to be rich, unfortunately become short-sited! sad

      Pay off my parents house, car, and buy them another one (as they need a small vehicle).

      Buy myself some land and a nice house out of the state of Georgia.  Pay to have someone landscape nice outdoor tortoise enclosures.

      Donate to some animal shelters.

      Invest.

      Save, and put some away for my student loan (if it's not ready to be paid back, but if it's ready to be paid, go ahead and pay it off).

      But, that'll never happen. Plus, in reality I could do all that with just 1-2 million.

      I can say alot of things here before I get the money, but if it happened, what I say here may be completely reversed out.  Money tends to make people change, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worst.  So, it is extremely difficult to pen down what I would do, until and unless the money is in hand. LOL!

        You are absolutely right! We can only tell the possible reaction which would come if the present state of mind persists! smile
