If you became very wealthy after living a life, like most of us, from paycheque to paycheque, in what ways would you help your family and friends financially? Thank you, Fairweather Walker for the prompt!

The problem is, I would never want my kids to think that happiness comes from having money. So there would be a fine balance between enjoying ridiculous amounts of money and having a good work ethic and living by values.

Lots can go wrong when lots of money is involved. I don’t know, it would be a tricky tightrope to walk. A little trust fund would be nice but I’d want them to do something productive with their lives. If not work, then dedicate every single day to a charity or volunteering at something to making other people’s lives better.

For my parents and my sisters, that’s a different story. They’ve worked hard and understand the value of a dollar. They’ve been smart with the money they earned. Any debts they still carried of course I would pay off. Plus I’d like to buy them anything to make life easier.

Mostly, I’d like to give money and things to people who have nothing or barely anything.
