If I won the lottery, what would I do? First and foremost I would make sure we put enough aside for Munch. University, house and all that type of stuff. Enough to make things easier but not to the point where he didn't have to work any if that makes sense.
I would give a portion to my family so that they were all comfortable. We would have enough to pay off our mortgage or move house if we so wished. I would keep enough so that we could live comfortably but otherwise I would give the remainder to charity.
Personally, I am quite happy to be comfortable when it comes to money. I don't like having to struggle but don't like having too much either as both bring with them their own set of problems. As long as I have a roof over my head, able to provide food on the table and cover bills then in my mind everything else comes as a bonus. In the end, no amount of money can ever buy the things that make me happy so I am perfectly content being in a comfortable financial state.

ReplyDeleteThat is so so true :) The best things in life are free!
That is one of my favourite phrases - "The best things in life are free". They truly are, it's just a matter of whether we realise that or not sometimes.
DeleteWe are all so lucky to have the best things in life! :) xx
ReplyDeleteWe have a lot more than many in this world so really have not much right to complain with our lot :)
DeleteI agree with what Nat said above and have something similar on my entry today. I'm not a materialistic person and money doesn't make me happy! Fab post xx
ReplyDeleteThank you x
DeleteI agree too - too much money can come with it's own issues
ReplyDeleteYou read far too many stories of money changing people or those around them. Scary stuff!
