Good news

Daily writing prompt
If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to?

A million dollars really doesn’t go very far.

Then again, if someone called you up one day and said here’s a little one-time bonus of $100,000, you’d be over the moon right?!

So I would, very carefully, choose ten people and give them each a hundred grand.

It’s not something you quit your job over but what a nice surprise it would be, both to receive and deliver.

    you’re absolutely right CJ. you need to qualify your million dollars (i.e. the risk of trying to get it versus the reward) by asking if it’s pre tax or after taxes because you’ll be shocked by how much both the federal and provincial/state governments take from sudden windfalls. the number can literally reset how you’d feel about getting it if you chose to receive the cash.

      1. It is an incredible story – they had a tradition of meeting with friends for coffee and buying weekly tickets. One week they got lucky!

  6. We wouldn’t mind receiving a million dollars.
    Many years ago, Kb needed a business loan. Actually € 100,00 would have been enough. But his advisor told him that it’s easier to get a loan of one million than for 100,00. And he was right.
    An important question is how to tax it.
