Get ready to take your snapshot. It happens several times a year, but this one is a full moon.
If I Won 100 Million Dollars Meme
Welcome back to Sunday Stealing which originated on WTIT: The Blog authored by Bud Weiser. Here we will steal all types of memes from every corner of the blogosphere. Our promise to you is that we will work hard to find the most interesting and intelligent memes. You may have heard of the expression, “honor amongst thieves”. In that age-old tradition, we also have our rules. First, we always credit the blog that we stole it from and we will “fess up” to the blog owner where we stole the meme. We also provide a link to the victim's post. (It's our way of saying "Thanks!") We do sometimes edit the original meme, usually to make it more relevant to our global players, to challenge our players, sometimes to select that meme's best questions, or simply to make it less repetitive from either this new meme or recently asked questions from a prior featured meme.
Let's go!!!
This week's questions come from BackTalkk Quotes. They didn't say where they got it, but it was probably stolen as well.
IF I WON 100 MILLION DOLLARS....
OOOOO play money!!!! Let's play! Let's see, that's about 1/1500 of the cost of a B1 Bomber.
Iron Cross Speech by Dwight D. Eisenhower
Ok, now for some fantasy fun!
What kind of car would you buy?
I'd buy several. Some Tiny Scion iQs in several colors
and some tiny Fiat 500e cars, colors I liked
these for me and any of my "kids" who want one. Nieces, friends, etc.
Where in the country would you move to?
I'd buy a space in a trailer park in Santa Cruz.
What kind of house would you buy?
The kids can pick what they want. For myself, I would buy a studio space somewhere up there. To that studio, on five acres of land, I would attach a sanctuary for dogs and cats, rescued from shelters, with a well paid and trained staff and attendants for every 12 animals to insure that they all got loving play and attention.
Would you give your family any money?
Yes, if they needed it, I would.
What charity would you donate to?
Why just one? Let's start with this one:
And after that there would be Oxfam, Soldier's Charities, Women For Women, US Humane Society, the Ti Na Nog Horse Sanctuary, San Diego Audubon, Audubon USA, Green Peace, and Parkinson's research, Native American charities. And these are not in any particular order.
Would you give your friends any money?
Absolutely, if they wanted it. I like making things for friends and when I'm not petting dogs and cats I can be making things in a bright new studio for friends.
Where would you go on vacation?
I'd visit friends in Alaska, British Columbia, Vancouver, Washington, Oregon, Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota, and Texas. Maybe more!
What luxury item would you buy first?
The cars. I know, I'm boring, I can't imagine a luxury anything. Oh wait, I'd get a better camera. Yes, that. And I want to plant a lot of flowers everywhere!! I'd give money to the Urban Guerrilla Gardeners and go with them on their planting adventures. I like night recon, a lot! Dress up!
Would it change your life?
It would. A lot. That's a lot of money to be responsible for, eh?
Would you save any of it?
Most of it would be going into a trust fund to support whatever I started for animals or little kids, like schools on the rez with Native American teachers, if they wanted either. Serious stuff. It needs to be protected and last longer than I do. Social change is what I'm after.
Would it change your current relationship?
I hope it wouldn't. My hubby is the one I want to be with until I drop off the twig.
Would you quit your job?
I'm a crafter so I'll never quit working, happily. I love craft.
Would you ever work again?
For someone else, no, but since I'm a crafter I could make REALLY nice things and give them away.
What one task would you never do again?
I'd never have to clean my tile floors again, never have to work around craft storage again, or dust for that matter.
What dream of yours would you be able to do?
Giving away lots of money to worthy causes. Being able to step in and to do a matching of donations for the Environmental movement and others.
Would you change the way you dress?
No. I'm sooooo beyond that part of life that it's unthinkable for me.
Would you change anything about your body?
No, now if I were 50 I might get a face peal.
Would you miss anything about not being rich?
I would miss being relatively anonymous and so boring no one wants to meet me.
Who would be the first person you tell?
DH and then I would thank who ever gave me such a fabulous chance! Then, I would thank The Diety for the chance to do this HUGE thing.
Would it bring you happiness?
I'm already pretty content and settled in my mind so, no, I really don't think so. Are you giving it away soon?
hehehe.. thanks for the fun and the chance to play multi-millionaire!

I thought the same thing about losing my anonymity.
ReplyDeleteI love your animal sanctuary idea! Really, I like all your answers--we think along some of the same lines.
ReplyDeleteI love the dog/cat sanctuary idea!
ReplyDeleteI really liked your list of charities.
ReplyDeleteWow! I've fantasized about willing a million dollars, but never 100 million! I guess if you're gonna dream; dream big!
