Some people claim that winning a lottery can be be more harmful to an individual then beneficial, cause them to become greedy, selfish, and conceded. So now I ask, what would you honestly do if you had $380 million to spend?

What Would You Do With $380 Million?
This past week the second largest lottery in the United States was held. The prize was a whopping $380 million. Just imagine if one day you woke up and were suddenly titled as a multi-millionaire. This feeling came true for two Pacific Northwest citizens. The chances for winning a lottery of this size is extremely low, pretty much facing 0%. One person out of 176,000,000 people has the opportunity to win it. This lottery brought out crowds of people who waited patiently in lines lasting hours and hours. Watch this video to get a visual of these lines.

I love getting scratch off tickets as gifts. The thrill you get as you eagerly scratch a penny over the grey boxes. But, I can't even imagine winning such a large amount of money. As great as it sounds, I think life as a normal person would be nicer than that of one who has people recognize him as "the guy who won the lottery."
ReplyDeleteWow, $380 million! I do think that it would change some peoples lives for the better and maybe some for the worst. They would not have to work anymore if they did not want to, but then you would miss out on all the normal things about your life. I honestly do not know what I would do with that amount of money. I'm sure it would be a lot of fun though.
