I'd pay my own, families and close mate’s mortgages / debts off, then give the rest away in equal amounts to Cancer Research, NSPCC and NCDL.

I'd buy STW, sack the moderators, offers free lift passes to all over a weekend somewhere in the alps to celebrate, invite everyone from here, then a mass free uplift at a UK trail centre, hire in skills coaches, spray everyone who turned up in lycra with silage, (but have free baggies and a shower on hand), free beer at a happy hour at the end of the day, hire Jeremy Clarkson to give us a chat about dress sense after we've all had a drink or two..

they do need to stamp out corruption,stop fighting and start to take birth control seriously
'They'? Is this something all Africans do? Moroccans and Liberians alike? Where did you experience this happening?
It's awful that they have corruption and fighting too many births and we only have the fighting and corruption. If only we could breed more...

'They'? Is this something all Africans do?
No not all Africans, just those which are poor, hungry, and in need of basic healthcare provisions - they don't deserve any help, because of all the corruption and fighting that goes on. They're obviously "not helping themselves".
Once they have proved that they can help themselves by no longer being poor, hungry, and in need of basic healthcare provisions, then, we should help them.
Makes sense surely ?

That's a lot of money, and you could help out a lot of people with that sort of cash.
Yep. Think how many times you hear of a kid needing £10k for an operation. Pay for that. You could help get homeless people off the streets, fund community projects that help hundreds of people. I would love to have that sort of money to give away. But not everyone would.....
When the couple won £156 million or whatever it was on Euro Millions I had this conversation with someone. I said I'd sort my family out, buy a nice house and invest some to keep me secure, then give the rest away. I could employ someone to help, set up a fund and just go for it, read all the begging letters, check the stories out, make sad people happy.
But the person I talked to looked at me funny "I might give a bit away, but I'd buy a yacht and blow it all" was the response.
Sadly I'll never get the chance, but if a few grand could save a life or get someone off drugs, once you've got that sort of cash it's peanuts, and I couldn't morally keep it all and be happy in my own skin.
But that's just me.Posted 5 months ago # -
i'd rather give £25,000 to 40 different people, than say £500,000 to 2

I'd buy a couple of million condoms and send them out randomlly to people of child bearing age of all walks of life. With a little note just saying - "think for a minute about the future". A couple of thousand less unplanned kids has to be the best thing for the world.

I was in Norn Ireland this year visiting the good ladys family, I heard her dad say to his girlfriend in reply to her question 'would you still love me if you won the lottery?' yes, but I'd miss you

remember though, when you're giving stuff away
"give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day
teach a man to fish and he'll bore the living shite out of others for the rest of his life"
so I shall give away fish suppers
with scraps
