Yes, the classic question that nobody gets tired of.
I know what I would do. I would buy an island and go live there with people that worship me!

a million dollars! first i will count how many zeros are after 1,then i will divide the one million dollars into several parts,some i will give to the charity organization,there are so many people need help,i couldnt own all the money;some i will keep in bank,then i could get more money from the bank,one day if i have nothing left,i can still have that money;some i will buy a house for my parents,i hope they live a better life,and do whatever they want to do;at last,i will take the rest to do some business,i am not good at that,so i will buy a bookshop,if nobody buys my book,i read it myself lol.

Oh my God, $1.0 million! I have always day-dreamed and fantasized about that much money, such as winning an unplayed lottery, somebody leaving that much for me in a will, etc. Honestly, I have always considered actualising my philanthropic ideas - projects for the poor and the needy, scholarships, healthcare facilities, free and cheap housing, etc. However, I would not give a cent to any religious body, as the money might not get to the poor. We have very funny religious leaders around all over.

So you're going to spend your money to improve people's lives? That's so refreshingly unique!
Most people think personal gain first.
Although, your remark about religious bodies. Are you referring to the religious bodies in your country alone or the rest of the world as well? Though I kind of understand it. We have a few "funny" people in major religious roles in my country as well.
