That's a tough question. It probably wouldn't have occurred to me to give to them. It's a public school.

$0

I would give some to my old Boy Scout Troop to help upgrade equipment and help less fortunate scouts with uniforms and stuff.

I would give them whatever they need, they saved me and took me in during a hard time in life. I've never forgotten.

Yes. $25mil a year earning 4% gives me $1mil to live off of a year. That's plenty.

$0. I would not give any of the principle away. I might consider giving a million of the market returns though.

My high school already has more money than they know what to do with. There are much more worthy causes.

I'd give a million. My high school did a lot for me and they cared for me like a son.

It'd be like Catholic except smaller. Think further south. Like St Michael's but outside of diocese. Brah.

To help worth improvements and to give back to the community and school you went to



I wouldn't give them a dime to dole out on their own because they are idiots. I have done charity work for them in the past and am not happy with the way they handled a lot of things surrounding that.

I would be happy to help fund some projects around my hometown but they won't be getting a check to pay with, I will pay it all directly and control the money flow so I can make sure it is going where it needs to go instead of to administration costs.
