If You Were Given One Billion Dollars

 If you were given one billion dollars  , what would you do with it?

 

I think ,1 billion dollars, wow, that‘s so huge. That’s why I have been worried all along since last Tuesday. I have no conception of what 1 billion dollars is. But my sixth sense tells me if I couldn’t deal with the unexpected fortune well, it will bring me more unhappiness than happiness. So after much consideration, I decide to spend 1 in a thousand of the money for myself and 999 in a thousand for persons I love and for persons who need it more.

 

Of course, I would do some charities first, for example, set up a foundation of scholarship to provide financial aids for those poor but excellent students, or build infrastructures like hospitals or schools in remote areas. But what I want to do most is organizing a tour for the children who have never stepped out of mountains, who have never known how colorful the world really is. I believe this tour will become a milestone in their lives.

 

Then, I would use the money to help the persons I love to realize their dreams. All of them have a common dream, travelling around the world. So do I. So, we could enjoy a touring party only for friends and relatives. That’s super great as long as it was true. My friend Xiaoyan is a big fan for filmmaking, but she cannot afford a more professional film camera.  And Wendy, another friend of mine, is good at playing piano. But it is difficult for her family to offer her a better piano as well as a better tutor. I help them because I just want them to be happier.

 

Well, it is my 1 in thousand now. I want to build many indoor badminton courts in our university, so that badminton fans like me wouldn’t be worried about bad weather anymore. And I guess I will be so happy if I own a private kitchen with an oven. Then, I could bake strawberry cakes or cook anything I want!

 

I love my present life, even though so many things must be struggled for by myself. After all, If is just if and money is just a way, rather than the destination.
