If you won $500 million dollars in lottery how much would you share to your family or friends?

That's hard to say. If I may paraphrase Warren Buffet when asked about what he's going to leave his kids, "I will give them enough so they can do anything with thier life. But not so much that they would do nothing with thier life". It's less important what I'd give them then them knowing that they can always count on me. In the short term I would give them at least a million. Because a million IS life changing. And if they're smart they can improve the trajectory of thier life with it. What I have left would be better served blessing people much more in need then my family. And I KNOW my family would agree with that. I've actually thought about this before. I would probably take a lot of it and start a FOUNDATION.

Thats nice knowing that giving something people can change their lives. After all you cannot bring it all when you die. Why not share it to people who are unfortunate like children and sick people at least you can still help and make people happy.

[ChiTown33]

It's not me. It's God's will. God blesses us so we can bless others. But, I don't have 500 million so I guess has other plans for me.😂
Sometimes I think what a burden so much money would be. Even with 500million you couldn't eliminate all the suffering of this world. And while speak practical and would want to help. I know I probably wouldn't be good at determining who needed it the best. Maybe God knows that.

[Asker]

So you believe God give people wealth?
Thats right. Maybe if Im rich Id help my unfortunate family members or friends who are in need but then again Im scared of getting robbe abused or killed so I don't know if I have that amount of money.

[ChiTown33]

No I didn't say that. Money is the root of all evil. I'm saying if God gave me it he gave it to me to do his will is all. You're absolutely right. Money can be a burden.

[Asker]

Id say selfishness or greed is root of evil. Sometimes people change when they have low or too much money. I don't know its between it.

[ChiTown33]

Agreed. But that's why they call it the "root" of evil. Because if you don't keep grounded it will change you.
I remember an interview with Colin Farrell right after he became a Hollywood name he talked about how he just made a million dollars but that his grandpa was given "x" amount of months to live at about the same time. And he lamented that "with all that money I can't give him anymore time, so a better man I know it does not make me".
Money is just a tool. A useful tool. One that's hard to live without in this world. But it doesn't make you a better man (or woman).

[Asker]

Agree money can't buy happiness but then again it can help pay my bills lol.

[Wiredone]

I'd give my kids, mother in law and sister money. The friends that were always there for me will get some too

[Asker]

Lol you're so sweet to even give your mother in law money

[Wiredone]

She's always helped us out when she can and we always paid her back. I'd like to return the favor but she wouldn't have to pay us back

[Asker]

you're lucky you found a sweet mother in law and she's lucky her daughter married a nice man.

[Wiredone]

Thank you for your kind words. I really appreciate it. I am very lucky for marrying a good woman with a nice mom. I am also lucky that I had 2 great parents

[Asker]

you're welcome. I hope someday I can experience that too finding a good man and nice in-laws.

[Wiredone]

Give it time. The right guy is out there for you. You seem like a great woman. Don't settle for second best

[Wiredone]

Thanks for the mho

[NathanDavis]

as much as they need... and then a bit more on top of that

[Kaneki05]

I would buy a big house for me and my friends to live in. And pay for all food, bills etc.
Rather than give them money.

[Miristheiss]

My kids would get some, they'd just trusts and inheritances. Maybe my bother and sister-in-law would gets some. Outside of that, no one else.

[Simslover92]

1 million each. I don't have a lot of family and friends so this would be doable.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

None. I'd invest it. Then I can buy whatever my family needs.

[normalice]

Probably most of it. I don't have a lot of financial needs anymore, myself.

[JacobJordan]

None. I have already helped them more than enough

[exitseven]

I would give my kids some money. The few friends I have will get a cut as well

[DextroShade]

I would buy my parents and brothers one house each.

[Asker]

Thats nice of you. n

[Agent_Elflord]

Probably $100M-$200M to pay off everyone's homes, loans, and bills or for them to buy their dream houses too.

[Anonymous]

I'll grow their businesses probably would take a few million and leave more to accure good income to offer them bail outs or anything they require

[Staximus]

They won't have to work anymore

[Asker]

Thats nice of you.

[Yannae]

Enough to support one of my friend's dreams.

[Jay-_-]

[BarryLiverstone]
