What good deeds would you perform if you were to win the lottery?

Say you are suddenly $500 million wealthier. You piss away $75 million within a few months on a new home/property, paying off family members' homes/debts, and giving a little to family and close friends in need. You invest enough to last 10 lifetimes of lavish spending but what do you do with all your monthly income from your investments? You're likely going to have millions of dollars of monthly income from investments alone.


Personally, I'm going on a grocery store tour across America and looking for single parents or any parent that appears to be struggling and offering to pay for any food item they want/need plus giving a gift card worth $10,000. I'd do this daily for a week each month.

You could give to charity all you want but are you sure your donation is going to be used as intended? Not likely. Helping people with their groceries is truly helping, in my opinion. It helps put food on the table for families who are struggling.

What would you do?

Open a homeless shelter that specializes in mental health

That surely already exists and probably doesn't really work well but it'd make me feel good that I'm at least trying to help the society

Why would you give people on food stamps more money? They’d already be richer than you

Sounds like my good deeds were already taken care of.

A lot, but most of it anonymously and quietly.


Everything from donating to cancer research to paying tuition and setting up college funds for friends and family’s children.

Shriners. St. Jude. Local church that’s not into pissing $ off but feeds actual poor. Masonic education foundation that helps needy go to college or trade school.

all of my immediate family and friends would be debt free.

a few animal rescues would be well looked out for as well. a good chunk would be used to purchase food for local food banks - not the donation of the money, but the purchase of the goods - I would want to ensure that my donations went to wards the intended purpose - no chance of the money being syphoned off

I would remove myself from the general population. Live on a Colorado ranch, surrounded by 100's of acres of no stupid people.

Definitely some scholarship programs and free ACT/SAT prep workshops. Some kind of housing for families of sick children so they don’t have to stay in hotels
