You all great plan, but you have not win it yet. And remember your spouse will run you over if you do not discuss in advance. This lesson I've learned from the 1994 lottery movie It Can Happen to You played by Nicolas Cage.

You might as well just hoard any winnings you get and become a greedy miser. They all *waste* a portion of donations on administration costs.

Better yet, get your walking shoes on, go out and find the people you see fit to get your money, that might be the best way. You can cut out the

middle man....if you do it all by yourself. Now there's a life mission....hand deliver aid, you'll know exactly where it's going.

A person who gives with reservation or prejudice might as well just keep i... [ More ]

I must have won the nigerian lottery at least 10 times.

I personally would donate to kid charities, i finds they are worthy of getting my money

thanks to child labor laws, must can not most earn themselves a decent living or for that matter help what family they were born into rich or poor

either it be giving to food and clothing for kids. I'm all for giving to such charities .long as they don't waste it on high administration costs

giving to adults, however, I am completely against, because simply people should be responsible for... [ More ]

I would like to start a fund to educate people from Kentucky to the point that civilized society can understand them when they try to speak.

We can find a cure for Mush Mouth if we all work together.

Although NOT my cup of tea, and not quite sure if you are being sarcastic...Isn't it great that you have the freedom to express your particular bent. Don't get used to it though, original intent was your rights end at your own nose and any religion that uses fear or intimidation aka socially acceptable views to recruit new members is on my don't believe the hype list. Of course it's your opera and we are all just bit players in your own drama. I am sincerly not trying to attack, peace good luck... [ More ]

I would discreetly move around the cash give small amounts so that it doesn't seem noticeable enough to be detected as a lottery win to ultra orthodox synagogues truthful doing good Israel charities and Precious Bearing Seed in Ohio, a fabolous bible printing place. Buy blind dogs ($35000 to train each), give to blind organizations in US overseas. Give to truthful charities doing good in India. If its allowed, give local police station gadgets new cars. Fix up the dying decayed buildings in the... [ More ]

Yep, I'm replying to my own post. Why did this topic dissappear? If you don't know what motivates and moves you with NO real choices how are you going apply your beliefs once you do win? You don't become a differant person you just have differant options to screw yourself. And to possibly realize your dreams, if you don't get caught up in it. Your money or your life is a great book...please read.

10% right off the bat goes to animal rescue, specifically to Pittbulls and PB mixes. Take a breeds natural instinct to please and turn it to cruelty and horror for a buck. Both the media and arsehole gangsters . And if I hear one more idiot spout the sensational nonsense thier idiot-tubes tell them is news....(postal!). Seriously folks, Petey from little rascals, Prez Roosevelt owned and loved one and original family dog used on war posters to promote protection from communism, maybe not the big... [ More ]

35% of it. It's a reduction of taxable income.

If my history lessons memory serves me well, The Polish Army hauled over 100 of the septic tanks to the border for an attack, but the tanks were useless because none of the soldiers knew how to operate them.

Delta Draw — Sat, 28 Aug 2010 17:13:36 GMT

I would give it all to Poland for a Museum and theme park. One of the highlights of the museum would be the excavated and restored Septic tanks they were going to use in the Polish underground to launch a counter attack on Germany. The theme park would have grey water slides and poop-shoot ranges along with curtsey food courts all serving the same thing and offering hepatitis shots. There would be a Big Top (canopy made with Quick Picks) with regular shows always ending with shooting a man out o... [ More ]

drhymes74,

The Salvation Army wouldn't accept it. A jackpot winner tried giving them a huge donation before, I think it was $1,000,000, and they refused it when they realized it came from a lottery win.

In the book Infinite Riches, What to do Before and After Hitting the Lottery, the author gave an example of a straight cash donation to a charity as opposed to a trust to a charity. In the long run the trust paid a lot more.

I would donate monies to the Gonpolian Jemtacker society, the Procko Stambulyn Trust, and the Sarah Prothemian Advocacy group.

But charity starts at home, so my immediate family would come first.

THIS IS NOT ABOUT DISCUSSING THE VIRTUES OF ANNUITIES VS CASH OPTION....OK??? KISS!

SO let's not be a simpleton, get our heads out of our behinds or the nearest hole in the ground and answer the original question. If not, you are not adding anything related to the core of this topic.

Since I would want to perpetuate my giving, I would invest the money in an account that would generate interest to give to the following in the following manner on an annual ongoing basis:

5% of the earnings per year to the poorest parish in my Diocese. They are in the inner city and provide free food to the poor in the city. The parish is in a real bad section, very meager operations. The people that come in seem very grateful.

15% to the hospitals maternity/labor and delivery departments... [ More ]

Suppose you were advised to take the cash option, paid the taxes and for the sake of simplicity, you designate about $10,000,000 to charity.

I would consider that the advice of some simpleton that didn't know his behind from a hole in the ground.

What charity or charities

Tonights Mega jackpot cash value is $94,200,000...

Suppose you were advised to take the cash option, paid the taxes and for the sake of simplicity, you designate about $10,000,000 to charity.

What would you do? What charitable organizations would you give to.

I'll post my answer separately.
