April 8-14

You have been struggling financially your whole life. You just won a million dollar lottery. Do you give any to charity? I say yes but not the kind of charity you are thinking about, I would give some to my parents that are abvouisley living in poverty, because we all know that children owe their parents some kind of graditude. But most of the money would be mine because I was the person that it was given to, yes given to, I don't consider the lottery something that you earned. I would probably also allow my parents to stay at my mansion or if they were old enough help them get into a retirement home. Plus the way I look at it is that if you have no friends or family that some of the money is going to or would have gone to, then you are just giving to charity for they attention. If that was the case than why would you even do it, giving money for publicity defeats the purpose of charity. When you look at it also if the thought never crossed your mind previous to winning the lottery, then you usually won't give it to charity. These days people are more selfish and without a reason they will not give to anyone, without a purpose that has them in the big picture they will not put forth the time or the money.
