Before spending money in earnest, I’ll give one third of a lottery payout to my parents. Also, I will donate Korea children's foundation which I volunteered two years back. And I’m going to save money for the wedding.

If I won the lottery, I would really like to do several things.

For one thing, I'd travel around the world without worrying about how much money I have. I’m still a student so I have to ask my parents for financial help or work part-time for long-distance trips. So, the range of country and region choice narrows. I’ve respected Han Bi-ya from old times, who is a prominent traveler and international rescue activist. I have really admired her enthusiasm. However, we have a different thinking about style of travelling. She travelled, spending minimum money. And, she always enjoyed to visit backcountries. But I prefer to travel in any developed country which have the developed environment and the prospect. If I won the lottery, I would invest one third of money for my trip, and I want to broaden my view of the world by travelling a lot when young.

Secondly, I would establish private alternative school named after my name. We need to reform the oppressive education system that focuses only on college entrance exams. Alternative school gave people negative images in the past that the school problem child attended. But really is not. Since elementary school or kindergarten, the children have lived while competing with each other. Through free education, the children have to do self-directed learning and have liberal views.

Thirdly, I’d buy real estate for my old age. I’ve heard that investing in realty is the best way to make a profit. And I’ll buy an estate in the country because I would run a blueberry farm after retirement.

lastly, I would throw money on the street or in rooftop, just like in the movie ‘Man On A Ledge’. I want to enjoy the happiness along with passers-by. :D

Besides, there are so many things I want to do. I want to learn sports like golf, horse-riding, paragliding and scuba diving. Also, I would like to learn violin and photography techniques. And I’ll see musical as much as I want.

One hundred million won Quiz show is broadcast live every Friday night. Sometimes I send a text message to participate in the program in my free time. I have expectation that I could be heroine of 100 million won. If I took a cash prize, I could buy something you guys! Actually, I have never bought a lottery ticket. If I dreamed a good dream, I would buy it.

I'm so impressed with the last one...It is a kind of funny!! It is likely to be in only a movie, but If I had a lot of money, I also would try that. It would be fun. Or it seems It will be a little dangerous too! What if thieves follow me and attact...? hmm.....we should think about it more..hehe

What would you do if you won the lottery?

If possible, I would like to win U.S.A lottery, Mega Millions. I think Korean lottery is a little predictable because there are always some people who win the prize. But the probability is extremely low. It is about 0.000001% which is like the thunder strikes one spot seven times.

If I won the Mega Millions whose prize money is about 540000000 dollars for the last week, I would spend only 10 percent of the money for myself and my family. I would buy a very fancy car, Mercedes Benz which everyone envies. I would get married with someone that I really love. We would live peacefully very far from the city. I would buy a detached house each of my family. I guess those are the main costly things that we should deal with.

With the rest, I would spend all of it for the community and the poor. Personally I want to build a public library on my home town. When I was there, there was no place for students to preview and review materials. I want to offer a public library for anyone who needs a study room.
I could establish a scholarship foundation. I could sponsor anyone who needs a financial support.

I’ve tried lottery several times but I failed to win. Of seven numbers, I only got one or two. It is very challenging. But I never give up. I still invest some of my allowance in lottery. Wish me good luck , Prof. Joe. I will get you 10 meter yacht.

Hey I just figured that the lottery prize for the 1st place is just 1.6 billion won. But unfortunately the government will take about 40% of the prize for The unearned income. The money that I will get is about 1 billion won. I think it is kind of smaller than the Mega Million.

If I won the lottery, first of all, I would get some things that I need and wrote in my wish-list. Fancy car and house are not highly needed the present. Now, buying things that I need is the most important and realistic.
After I buy all things that are on my wish-list, lots of money will be definitely left. As I told in class, I will conceal the fact that I won the lottery. The money is necessary in capitalistic society but it can cause the disaster when it is excessive. It is not my all but important to achieve my goal. Therefore, I have to spend it so wisely. Money is not only helpful, but fearful.
I don't know how much I get exactly. However, I think it is good that buy a building for my parents. The rent from building will be enough as the costs of living for them. Of course, it will be performed under hand. If my family knows that I won the lottery, they would lose their control.
After all, I would spend the money for my future. Probably, everyone considers buying a fancy car and house. However, I won't do that. Because I don't need it now. I think that nothing is more wasteful than buying needless things. I would spend my money paying the tuition fee for law-school or studying in other country. Payment for law-school is very expensive so I couldn't consider admitting law-school. However, if the money gives me a chance to study law without worrying about expense, I would really study hard with thankful mind. Also, I would spend the money going abroad to study English. After I come back, I will apply for law-school and I would be a lawyer. Ultimately, I want to be a president of Korea. In my normal life, winning the lottery can give me some opportunities more than before. However, I think it is need to be more productive. It would be never end in an buying something. It has to be invested for my future. It is from my confidence and trust to my abilities. If I could meet the chance that makes me better, I would try hard. It truly means that lottery is jackpot in my life.

Ya, I totally agree lottrey can be two sides of the same coin. I mean, winning the lottery can be both good and bad for your life. But I'm pretty sure the money goes to a good cause if you won the lotto.
Like you, I want to go abroad to study English someday. Actually, I went to the States as an exchange student last year, but it was too short to study enough, I think. I want to study in a foreign country until my heart is content:)
By the way, why don't you donate some money to needy? Ur lottery payout can be used as scholarships to needy kids or students!

I mean, all people in donation association is not honest. If you watch the news, you can agree with my opinion. When I find some proper way to help them, I will do. First, I will help you.kkkkk

Actually I already have specific plan to not confuse when I really won the lottery. If I won the lottery I would give the half of the money to my mother., and I'd put the half of the remaining to the bank. Then I'd donate the half of the amount to UNICEF or Greenpeice.

Even though I used lots of money to others, I'd have enough money to use myself. First, I'll buy a ticket to go to Singapore to see my sister. My sister always wanted to go shopping but whe couldn't. So I'll buy a laptop, clothes, shoes, bags for her. I'm very sweet.
Then when I came to Korea, I would buy my owm house to live alone. My dream house could be small but has a reallt nice view. I'll decorate my house with blue and white furniture and raise a cat named Lucy.
Third, I'll buy a very nice car. I would not care of the price but it sould be a hybrid car. So I could use my car for my convenient but also for the environment.
Last, I'll go shopping and buy a lot of stuffs I always wanted to get.
I would go to the department store and buy some clothes, shoes and bags. Then I'll go to the bakery and buy all of the breads and cakes just for me.

Thanks! :D

If I won the lottery, first of all, I will drop out of school and have a party that I will invite every single my friends. there will be a mountain of delicacies and spring water that a stream is beer. everything you will eat and have is free.(Joe~ will you come? if you want, I will courteously serve you with a VIP room.) after it, I will go to my hometown to see my parents. I don`t mind giving some of the money to parents. even though I know they are not gonna take it. and then, I will travel around world. the first place is New-York. I wish I stayed in NY longer. I was in there for 5 months. I want to reminisce about good old memories. it all seems like a dream now. I will go wherever my legs carry one. it might take for 3 years when i turns to thirty, I will start my own business to get more money. I know that the rich get richer easily. (on the other hand, the poor get poorer. it is so sad.) and my business prospers. It will seems like wherever you go in the korea, there is always my shop nearby. how nice it is ^-^. well... I can`t stop me to buy Lotto now. I will go out after hand in.

< If I won the lottery.. >

Now, It's a hot issue that the lottery prize is about 500million dollars in America. It's such a huge amount that we can live whole life doing whatever we want without working. We all dream of being rich and I've also thought about 'what would I do If I won the lottery?'. There are some things I want to do If I won.

First of all, I would try hard not to tell anybody except for my family. I would give half the money to them. To my parent, I would give more than to my siblings. Parents have been spending a lot of money bringing me up. I would be so glad to have a chance to repay them to live in comfort. For my sister and brother, I would ask them how they would spend the money efficiently and meaningfully. Without definite plans, It may cause them to ruin their life. I want them to be happy with the money, not to be a curse for them. Also I would tell them not to ask for more money after that. If they do continuously, family relationship may suffer.

Second, I would deposit some of my money into my account so that I could save it, not wasting it. I would invest some money buying some buildings which have nice surroundings, an apartment in Seoul in Korea, and prospective stocks. These are some ways I could make more money.
Third, I'd like to donate some money to help people in need. Each year famine kills millions of people in poor countries. They also don't have water to wash and drink. Just small amounts of money can save a lot of poor people in the world. So I would be willing to help the poor, and I believe that I would be really pleased with and proud of myself.

Forth, I would live in America, and build a wonderful 2-storied house which has an attic. I would make It to have a swimming pool so that I can swim all day in summer, a singing room to enjoy during the weekend, and I ,myself, would decorate and design all the interior with my mom. (She likes to design) Also I've been thinking of having 2 cats and 2 dogs, so there should be a big yard they can run around in. This house would be wonderful to raise my children, and live a happy and comfortable life with my husband too.

Lastly, I'd like to spend the money left traveling all over the world. There are so many awesome places we should go before we die. I would go to Australia first to enjoy the beauty of nature especially Great Barrier Reef where we can see wonderful coral reef, and then go to Egypt to see pyramid the tomb of king of ancient Egypt, and Europe to see Eiffel Towel, Louvre museum. There are a lot of places to say, though. Anyway, I would travel wherever I want to go, and enjoy rest of my life.

Most of the winners in a lottery says that the huge amount of money has ruined their life. Their life has become devastated, and most of them has even divorced. I don't want my life to be like that. I think they didn't do anything for other people and didn't make detailed plan, and that's why their life is regretful. In conclusion, If I won the lottery and have 500million dollars, I would do some things not only for myself but for other people. Then I'm sure I would spend the money meaningfully and I may not regret.

If I won the lottery, I'll have just 1% because I don't want to get lots of money. It makes me terrible. Actually, I really want to go to south america I've never been. Traveling south america is one of my TO DO list. And then, I'll buy my house and a car. The rest mega million, I should think about it cafully! I can do anything with it.

First, I'll make my own school scholarship foundation. Unfortunately, nowadays many university students are lack of their registration fees. this situation presses the students' life more tightly. They are being a person of bad credit, before getting a job. I think 99% of that money is not enough. But, at the least, I'll give more options the students, as some of them can do something for themselves, instead of working restraunt, coffee shops and so on.

Second, I am interested in plays and underground musics. Korea has lots of talented artists, but the salary is bad except for a few famous artists. I don't know exactly what I should do though, I want help them, If I get mega millions. When I had trouble, the artists' musics and plays helped me a lot. Their job is really helpfull to people. I personally, They are the most needed person in the world. But plays are downsized and underground musicians has two jobs for their life. People want to see good plays and listen sexy musics.
So, it is natural that I use big money for them.

I've never bought any lotterys, but If I get that mega millions for any reasons, I'll pay for your 10m-sailing boat :-)

Winning a lottery......what a happy daydreaming of luck. To be frankly, I am really happy and enjoying my "COMMON" life and haven't thought about such a thing. Well then, by the chance, let's think about how to spend a budget brightly and happily.

Well, first, let's think about the fact that I got a lottery win. Is this be veiled in my account or opened in public? I think concealing is a better choice, because of the negative impact caused by plenty of money. I don't wanna lose my relationships between my relatives, friends and people who I know. So I'll hide the money if I got it and use it efficiently. I believe my decision is not a false one.

Then I have to purchase a room in Busan for myself to shorten the distance between my home and university. I love daily short travel of going to school and going back home, however buying a one-room can prevent the decrease of my attendance score by low blood pressure─In fact, I can't get up early in the morning and sometimes I'm late for the morning classes T_T─and have a new lifestyle by living with nobody in distant city from my home. Whether it's good or not, I wanna live by myself in Busan.

I'd like to visit Seoul when I'm free, secondly. There were much free time in the past, but I can't spend it easily because of less money. Well, that's ok. However, I wanna see my friends in Seoul. That's why I wanna visit Seoul when I won the lottery.

I may visit my relatives in Australia. My aunt lives there and wants to see me. However, I couldn't go abroad because I didn't have money to buy an airplane ticket to there. Maybe I can have a nice trip to Australia after visiting their house in Sydney.

Well, If keeping a secret isn't easy, I may tell the truth to my parents, little bro, my old friends, and Joe teacher. Maybe it's much better than having a heavy amount of money veiled in me, I believe their hearts are honest and they'll trust me.

That's all I thought about winning a lottery and getting an amount of national budget money. Maybe there are more ways to spend it better, However I can't imagine it because I haven't had a daydream about such a lot of money. I'll think and have more broad ways to use it more useful and happier. LOVE&PEACE rules the world :D

There is very little probability of winning the lottery. But if I won, I'll never tell anyone the news by priority except my parents. I think if other people know it, they'll behave pretentiously in front of me. There is no need to advertise it. And then, I'll open accounts in various banks for donation, journey, living abd so on. The "donation" account. There are so many the poor in the world. If I travel all over the world, I want to help them. Clothes, food, house.... I'll support them as best as I could. The "journey" account. USA, UK, Canada, India... I'd like to go everywhere and experience many things. The "living" account. This is for my parents and me. I want to buy a nice house that living with my parents, furniture and have a couple of dogs. Furthermore, I'd like to have a barbecue with my parents, friends and relatives in the yard. That woukd be wonderful!

If I won the lottery, I’d like to do several things.

First of all, I’ll make a thanksgiving offering to the God. I think that giving thanks to all is a shortcut to happiness. Also, we should express the mind of thanks. The bible says that “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” For this reason, I’d like to make an offering to the God and worship him.

Second, I want to give spending money to my parents. I love so much them. They made a sacrifice of themselves to nurture me and my sister. They always think us before anything else. And then, they nurture us with love, mercy, discipline and patient. Although it is nothing like as good as the money, I’d like to give it to them. So, I hope they’ll be happy and comport in their last years.

Third, I’ll save the money. Frankly speaking, I can't say that I’m very concerned about economy. As usual, I seldom save the money. It is one of my worries. Therefore, I’d like to save money surely.

Finally, I’ll travel around the world without worrying the cost. And, I’d like to establish the school for children without money, parents in the world. This is my dream. An education is hope and dream for children. It must be given to all children.

Anyway, winning the lottery is a fantastic story. !! ㅠ

If I won a lottery, I would tell my parents the facct honestly, and ask them to manage my some parts of whole money, Because, they have lived much longer than me. That means they know how to use and manage money more than me. So, It's kind of wise way to not lose my money.

Most of people become greedy after they won the lottery. I really don't want to be a man of that kinds. Of course, I don't want to lose my mind just because of money.

I also would like to donate 10 percents of my whole money to donation organization that help low-level families.

Money isn't the most important thing at all. For being happy, I don't think money is my priorities.Money isn't the best thing to be happy. It's just one part of being happy, not whole things. I want to be a manager of money, not a slave of money.

To summarize, I would put 50 percents of my money to my parents for financial technology, save another 40 percents in my own account, and donate 10 percents of my whole money.

Plus, I would like to keep a secret except my family. Because, I don't want to lose my friends and relatives as well as my personal relations.

What would you do if you won the lotto? It must be really a fascinating thing everyone dream about, and of course I'm not the exception. First, I would be surprised and then worry about spending the money wisely. I'm not trying to be stereotypical, but I would seriously consider helping the poor people if I won the lottery. I mean, I just want to buy some small presents for my family including myself. After that, I would like to donate the rest for the needy. Actually I haven't won the lottery, but I think the rich are not necessarily happy.


Firstly, I'd like to buy a good camera, especially DSLR. I've really loved to take pictures since my teen years, and actually taking pictures is my hobby. I get excited when I take pictures, and I don't want to miss my precious moment even a minute.
When I was young, I didn't have my own camera, so I borrowed one from my grandfather. When I was 20, I bought my first own digital camera by myself. And it has valuable meaning to me because I bought it with my hard-earned money.
But it is not good enough now for it has already become quite old, and in these days there are lots of nice digital cameras equipped with advanced technologies. So, I want to buy a new camera, hopefully a good DSLR, but of course with good price tag on it.


Secondly, I'd like to travel Latin America. Not long a go, I had read a book 'Che Guevara's Latin America travels'. And I have impressed by his challenging. Che Guevara use a bicycle on which he installed a small motor. And in total, he traveled Argentina, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, venezuela, Panama, and Miami. Because I had been an exciting read, I dreamed travel to Latin America alone. If condition is allowed, I would like to travel Latin America by motorcycle like Che Guevara.


And finally, I just want to donate rest of money for the founding of the school. As I mentioned early, I've always wanted to be a teacher from childhood. And a short time a go, I watched a documentary which showed the reality of the education state on developing country. After watched the program, I just keep thinking of the left behind children. The children were looking at me with twinkling eyes, and it were shining brightly. I believe children should study and play in brighter surroundings. Hence, I would built a safe and happy schools for children to study. I will also make a constant effort to maintain the school facilities with lottery payout. And if I had the chance, I would like to name the school after my parent's name.

If I won the lottery...just imagination, it is a awsome!
Most people sometimes imagine about it and have a expectation wining a lottery.
I've never bought a lottery but when i heard about this big issue that the lottery prize is mega million, i have a interesting in a lottery!
So i think about things what i want to do,if i won this lottery.

First of all, i'd drop out of school!! recently, i feel that why i go to school and what i want to get from school? Therefore if i have a lot of money, i'd don't worry this problem. After dropping out of school, i'd make a plan about something that i've wanted to do.
Second, i'd spend money for my family. I'd buy buildings for getting a cost to rent so my parents don't worry about money, and buy a beautiful houses, cars. also, i'd give support to my brother to achieve his dream. my asset manafement make more money.
And i'd dominate a lot of money. it is an essential thing. Now, there are many people suffer from poverty. i'd heop them giving food,clean water and builing some schools that poor students can get the education in the poor country.
Lastly, I'd travel all around the world. it is one of my dreams. In the world, there are so many wonderful place where i can get new experiences, see the beautiful scenery.
i'd go to many parties , meet many people around the world and volunteer in the poor country. i'd spend money for my wonderful trip without worrying about money.
oh, and i'd give present to you a wonderful boat!!!
anyway,it is so cool!

If I won the lottery, I would like to take a trip. First I choose a country that I want to live in and then I will leave with my credit cards. My travel is simple. I do not need to take suitcase, camera, sunglasses, something like that. I just take my credit cards. If I need some clothes and thing, I can buy some stuffs. Because I have a lot of money. But my itinerary might be not too long. I do not want to be alienated from my parents and friends.

Secondly If I won the lottery, I would like to establish a scholarship foundation. Recently most students face the problem of funding themselves while they are studying. So I would support someone who wants to study harder. And there is another reason. Humans are social animals that require close relationships with other people. Cannot play alone every day. I think that it will be valuable to take a rest after working so hard.

Actually I think that people who bought lottery tickets were pathetic. I think it is nothing to get a lot of money without cost. That is why there were no people who were happy after winning the lottery though.

What would you do if you won the lottery?

If I won the lottery, I would do what I usually want to do. The thing I have to behave is to make a plan how I spend a lot of money without informing others of the fact. Maybe, If I gain much money, I could be confused and have a excessive spending. After buying house, car and using living expense, I'll save most of my money to control me and take out insurances.
The first thing I want to do is to enjoy cultural lifes that are to watch movies, musical, concerts, etc. Although I hope to do that, the tickets' price is expensive. I'm student! There are various concerts of many artists on every months. I would go there and spend most of my time just viewing and enjoying. It will be fantastic. The another thing I would like to is to go on a trip with family. My parents like to take a trip abroad for relaxing. However, going abroad requires much money. If I have enough money, I could make them happy. The most place I hope to go to is Sweden. My family and I sometimes imagine what we would do if we go there. We are going to visit famous places and do some sightseeing. It's also my hope to buy clothes, accessaries and cosmetics. There are beautiful clothes and nice cosmetics in the world. I think that It is valuable to make me prettier and more beautiful. So, If I were a rich, I would be focused on myself.
The plan for managing money is to buy houses and put it up for rent. And, I will invest various places. I would try to save money more and more, spending money reasonably because I don't know what will be happened to me in the future.

I used to buy lotteries on the weekends. Whenever I bought that, I always hope to win the lottery. But, I haven't won the lotteries yet. If I won a lottery, I would become a lucky girl, even though I would be worried about what I have to do first.

If I won the lottery, I would do several things. I would like to spend 50 percent of the money for myself and my family, and the rest for someone who needs help.

First of all, I could go to Vancouver in Canada to meet my friend. We met in the university and now she is one of my best friends. But she is in Canada for studying language. I promised that I'll go there to meet her. So I would keep the promise.

Second, I would travel abroad with my family wherever. In fact, my mother has never been to oversea. And my family hasn't frequently traveled together. So I would like to spend some quality time with my family on a journey.

Finally, If I won the lottery, I would donate for someone who need the Free Lunch. Lately I saw a news that there are many students who are incapable of paying the food service expense. The news made my mind hurts. I want to help the students sincerely.

Frankly speaking, I've bought a lottery ticket occasionally. But I've never won the lottery. I wish I won the lottery at some future day.
It is my earnest desire!

Actually, I do not think I won the lottery .I think It’s a pipe dream. Threfore, i do not buy lottery.
But if i won the lottery, I am going to do many things.

First of all, I would use for my family. So i would buy fine house with a big garden for my mom. Because my mom always wants to live in a house with a big garden. It makes my mom happy! And i woud buy building for parents retirement .

Second, I would make more money by investing it in good stocks. If i would spend all money for myself, I'll be punished. This money was not just given to me live alone well, So i would donate some of my money to charity. I'll be happy that my donation will help feed poor people. Then, i would take a temporary leave from university for my travel. I am going to travel all over the world. Especially, I'll stay in turky for a long time. when i did research for assignment to make my travel itinerary I became more interested in Turky. It will be a good experience.

Third, I would use to what I’ve wanted to do. I would buy department store, then i am going to go shopping till I dropped. And I would like to learn something, for example foreign language and musical instrument and to learn recipe to make coffee . It's not easy to learn somthing. But it will help me in the future. To learn foreign language will help me when I visit foreign country. And to learn recipe to make coffee will help me wnen i open my own cafe.

Lastly,I would open my own cafe. I always want to run my own cafe after retirement . I will decorate inside of cafe myself. It will make a comfortable and cozy cafe for my customers.

If there is still some money left over, I would buy a yacht for joe teacher haha~

If I won the lottey, I would give some money to my parents first and save some of it in my bank. Then, I would travel a lot of countries as I as can. I'd like to travel all around the world if I can. Fist of all, I want to travel lots of countries that I wanted to go from long time. Such as Switzerland, Italy, New Zeland and etc. Like this, I'd travel most of countries in Europe and Oceania first. I'd like to make foreign friends. I'd like to visit their house and learn their cultures by enjoying with them. Also, I would donate Save the children and I'd participate in making hats or bags for the children that can donate replace the money because it is may be a help that is more practical. I also want to introduce like these donation program to my korean or global friends and participate in the work together. Also, if I have a chance, I would do volunteer works with Reach Korea. Actually, such as UNICEF generally do their work for social needs or the entire area's needs. So, a woman who worked Save the children in the past made the Reach Korea for helping the poor children more practically each of individuals. Maybe many of the people don't know that company yet. You can find the company's blog on the website. I want to introduce it to others. The Reach Korea is the company that is similar to Save the children just made in last year. I've had a meeting with her and her company's other members in our university club. I've knew that company first through that time. I was very impressed to her story. So, I would participate in the Reach Korea's volunteer work with the members. While I travel, I'd like to visit poor countries that such as countries in Africa or Nepal with my friends that I've met on the travel if I can. I'd like to give help to poor children more practically as I as can. In addition, if I have a chance, I want to plant many trees while I traveling.:)

If I won the lottery, I would buy a big house so that my family and all of my friends could stay whenever they want ! One of my favorite thing is having a party with my friends. I can hold a party and provide all of food and places. I wish my friends enjoyed a party ! And I would travel also. I really like to travel. I would buy my car and travel all cities in Korea. It will makes me excited ! I can eat and buy whatever I want. If my friends or my family wants to go with me, they are accompanied me.

But I think If I really won the lottery, I wouldn't tell anyone and save all money in my account. And buy some clothes as much as I can and make a big dress room that I ever dreamed !

What would you do if you won the lottery?


If I won the lottery, I could feel energy surging from inside when I think about that. It's a great amount of money that we really boggle the mind. This lottery prize money is the best that it's entirely different from Lotto in Korea's lottery. Frankly speaking, I can't imagine how much. So, I suppose that money I have enough money to last me the rest of my life. First, I will buy expensive building and car all over the world. I like supercar for example Lamborghini, Ferrari and so on. If I have prizw money, I could buy these things. Second, I hand out suitably this money for my family. If I hand out a lot of money, my family would be unhappy. Finally, I make a big donation.Anyway, I can't waste all the money even though I do anything. I have wanted donation when I watch the TV. There are so many people who needed more help in the world. Even if It's not people, there are many thing like that. If the world become a good place to live in all the people by my help, I would be really hit the spot. I think I can live worthily the rest of my life.
I really happy do this mission. Thank you.

A roof will be covered with tile. A pillar will be made of wood.

What would you do if you won the lottery?


I have seen quite many people who won the lottery on TV and Internet. They all seem not really happy as much as others expect. Some got their family broken, others ruin themselves by drinking, gambling or doing drugs. Most people may think that they can use the money very wisely, if they won the lottery. However, We don’t know what is going to exactly happen, and It will be very difficult not to lose mind control. Consequently, It is very great to make a plan in preparation for winning the lottery.
First, I would like to donate more than half of the money for the poor in the world. I heard that if African children had shoes, death rate of African would decrease about 20%. Even a pair of shoes can save the children's life. Therefore I expect that I can help so many people who are suffering unfairly in the world. Thankfully, I was born in Korea so that i don't have to worry about starving or disease. However, there are many people who are suffering just because they were born in poor country or poor environment. If i won the lottery, if i got that lucky, I want to share my luck with the poor people who deserve it.
Second, I would like to give my parents the half of the left money. Money does not always make people happy for sure, but I think my parents will be super happy with the money. I will be also very glad if they can live in comfortable circumstances for the rest of their life.
Finally, Those two things done, I will pack my bag simply an leave here for wherever my feet take me. I want to see everything, feel everything, enjoy everything in the world. Then, I would like to eat curry with only my right hand in India, play with dolphins in Cancun, take a walk at night in Paris. If it's possible I'm going to bring along my boyfriend, and I can pay everything for him. Because I'm much more happier with him than being alone. I'm not going to come back until i use all the money!!
