If I had a million dollars

So if I had a million dollars I would do lots of things. Since we are going to the college and most of us can't afford it therefore we need a loan. So First and foremost, I’d pay everything off. Credit cards, student loans (by the way…as I was typing that, I accidentally typed “credit CARBS and STUPID loans”…obviously my mind is on really important things), my car, and any other payments that are flushing my money down the toilet.

Second, I’d hand on over a nice chunk of cash to my parents to do whatever their little hearts desired with it. I’m pretty sure it’s the least I could do. Plus, they could never guilt trip me for not coming home enough ever again, because then I’d reply, “oh, remember that time I gave you 2 million dollars?” I’d find them a vacation house down the shore…or in the Poconos…wherever they want to relax, because hopefully it would make up for the fact that my Mom doesn’t feel like we took enough family vacations. (For the record, we did.) I’d buy a house in a family-friendly neighborhood, in a good school district in North Carolina. And if it just happened to be in Emily Maynard’s neighborhood…well, wouldn’t that be a coincidence? And if it also happened to be a giant compilation of the “Barbie Dream House” board I created on Pinterest? Well, hot damn! I’d send Ace to private-schools and have his college tuition paid for…unless of course, he takes it upon himself to get scholarships for said private-schools, in which case, he will indeed be my favorite child forever. I’ll buy him his first car, probably not the one he wants, but something safe and something I’d want to drive, should he do something to lose his driving privileges. Okay, fine. I would FINALLY contribute to the Elon Ignite Challenge. I’m not THAT irresponsible that I’d go spending it all, don’t you worry, I’d tuck a big chunk of it away. And of course I’d spend some of it on frivolous things…some new clothes, a few vacations, things like that. And I’m SURE some of you are sitting there, shaking your heads that I haven’t mentioned charity yet. Keep shaking it. Because if $476 million dollars fell into your lap (pre-taxes, obviously), I would be curious to see what percentage of people actually donated it. Just keepin’ it real, folks, just keepin’ it real. So while the chances of me actually winning are one in entirely too many…those three tickets in my purse stand for one thing.
