OT - if someone gave you a million dollars

I'd give about $200,000 to my church, Christ Lutheran Baltimore, specifically earmarked for the women/children's shelter we run. It's an important ministry and at any given moment I am only one paycheck away from ending up there myself.

I'd give $200,000 to the Lutheran Malaria Initiative to fight malaria in Africa. Malaria claims the life of an African child every 45 seconds but it is both preventable and treatable. Poverty continues to fuel these deaths and I could not, in good conscience, have any great amount of money and not DO something about that.

$200,000 would go to Planned Parenthood. I have used their services. That's all I care to say about that.

With the remaining $400,000 I'd set up a foundation that awards grants to people who cannot afford plastics after WLS. Of course, it'd seek to get major donations to keep the thing going, but I believe we shouid all be able to complete this journey. I can't afford plastics and here I sit with all this skin. I'd love to someday see the real impact of my progress.

 I would give each of my children $150,000. ($100,000 invested for them and the other $50,000 in cash).

I would give my mother $200,000 (she needs a new house BADLY or MAJOR MAJOR renovations to her current house.. if it can still be fixed).

When my kids were small, we lived in a REALLY nice low income apartment complex.  I would use the other $200,000 to anonymously pay the rent of everyone living in that complex for at least a month and then buy Holiday presents and decorations (trees/menorah/whatever) for everyone that lived there.
