I know exactly what I would do if I won a lot of money!

I have always told myself that if I came into money, I wouldn't buy expensive clothes, $1,000 watches, expensive cars or that type of thing. If I ever won the lottery or got some kind of money, I would have an earth sheltered house build into a hill on property with a nice view. I would have it designed and built to utilize energy saving technology and then install alternative energy sources like wind and solar and then promote the house to encourage others to want to build similar "green" homes. It has always been a dream of mine to buy a popular restaurant franchise and have all profits go to help single parents who dream to go to college or a trade school to better themselves. I would start a foundation to run the business and the scholarship program. I would name the foundation after my sister who died in 1980. At the time of her death, she was maintaining a extremely high grade point average at a prestigious law school while raising her infant son.

I wish I can win a load of money, too.. want to pay off all my loans n mortgage.. buy land, or any kind of real estate for my kids, help pay my brothers' loans n mortgage too.. Investing a good business, like a restaurant franchise, would be a great idea, too..

Such a beautiful heart! If I could have that much money? Just like you, I would help people. I will have a huge huge compound wherein all street kids will be sheltered and cared. Them to be free and live their lives. I will have a community for single moms, abused wives, raped women and of course abandoned aged parents. Just so they wouldn't be hungry again, they will be safe, they wont be scared anymore and don't have the sleep in the streets. They could have a decent clothes and a table where everyone can eat. Abundant food and a happy life. :D
