I think everyone would like to own a lot of money especially when it comes with no payment. We may admire the characters who can receive countless money with little cost in fairy stories and sometimes wish ourselves to be one of them. That’s why so many people are sticking on buying lotteries. I haven’t bought any lottery before, but I still dream about winning them to enjoy the interest and happiness of daydream.
For me, how I spend the money depends on how much money I win. If I won 10 dollars, I would buy some candies and share them with my friends. However, if there were 50,000 dollars, how to spend them would really need to think.
I would probably divide the money into many parts. I would spend 1,000 dollars in buying things for my parents, and another 1,000 for friends and relatives. 3,000 dollars would be used on music instruments, books and courses to improve myself. Then, the rest 45,000 would be spent in donating to the poor, putting into the bank and investing equally.
Actually, the difficulty of spending the money which comes from winning a lottery grows when the number of the bonus grows.50,000 dollars is not a large amount of money for many people, so it’s easy for us to make a plan on it. However, what if it’s 500,000 dollars? Well, in this case, if I were that lucky one who can win so much money, the most possible way for me is donating most of them and keeping 35,000 to spend as what I’ve written above. Tough it seems a little stupid; I still think it’s the best way. Too much money makes people confused, so I’d like to choose the way which can avoid confusion, and still let me to get the happiness of winning something unexpectedly in the meantime.
That’s all about what I would do if I won lotteries, thanks for spending time reading my blog
After reading your blog, I find your ideas of dealing with the lottery prize quite interesting. In my opinion, I also think that if we win a large sum of money, it is rather important to know how to deal with it properly. The idea that you brought up was a nice one. I agree with you that we should use a part of the money we win to serve the poor. As for the rest, I think I will give it to my parents. They have cared for me for so many years, and they have spent lots of money and time on me. Therefore, I think I should give the money to them to realize their dreams. For example, my mother always wants to go abroad for a visit, with this money I am sure that I can make her dream come true!
ReplyDeleteThank you for such a good comment. Actually, I think parents are the most important people for us in this world. Even if there is no lottery, I will try my best to make them live better and realize their dreams.
DeleteAs soon as I finish reading the fourth paragraph, I find that you are such a wise girl that you know how to avoid the confusion following a large sum of money! I think what you are going to do after winning a lottery is quite appropriate especially the donations and investments. When we have the ability to do and we do do something for the poor or the weak, we feel happy. That is the real meaning of donation and where our happiness comes from. Investment is necessary because no matter how much money you have, it is surely used up someday if you do not earn any. Therefore, the best way is to let money find and bring its mates to you-that is to say, to invest.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I always think helping others is a thing that can really give me a sense of accomplishment. I also think what lotteries can do is only make the help better,not make it possible.
DeleteI find more satisfaction in earning my money than receiving a windfall from winning a lottery. To me lottery is a form of gambling. One can get addicted and can lose a lot of money too. People keep on buying lottery tickets in the hope of winning one day.
ReplyDeleteI would rather take part in a lucky draw than buy a lottery ticket. Lucky draws are different in the sense that one wins something in a competition by chance. It works on a different principle. Lucky draw winners have won apartments, cars, even cash.
But this is just my opinion. Some may disgree.
HaHa~~What a kind-hearted girl our little monitor is!!!@小班长~ I really appreciate the way you divide the money you win from lottery. From it, i can see a pure soul which cares more about others rather than itself. To be frank, i really couldn't act like you if i win a lot of money. I will keep most of it as the start-up capital of my own business. To sum up, i really like your work!!\(^O^)/~~
ReplyDeleteI dream of winning lotteries when I want to buy something I cannot aford.If I won a lottery, I would spend more and donate less. However, I don't think I have that chance because I will never want to buy a lottery. As Ms Maureen Tan said, it is a kind of gambling. I would rather work and get my payment which I deserve .
