I would be a lot more generous with causes I believe in and would take care of my extended family. I would travel a lot, invest some, start a business, and live a very comfortable life.

I think that I would be very leery about meeting new people and not very trusting of people around me that I did not know very well. So I suppose being filthy rich isn't all good.


I was about to say something very similar to this. I wouldn't wanna be so rich to the point where friends and family feel that they're beneath me. That would be a horrible feeling to think that everyone assumes you're better than them because of extra money. I'd expect associates to be a little different around me though.....slightly friendlier. lol The filthy rich in some ways must be really lonely. Some feel that they should only associate with people on their financial level because of trust issues they have. Even with money I think I'd feel so out of place talking about Summer getaways in the Hamptons, quarter million dollar cars, the live-in maid ( I would NEVER have one regardless,btw lol), and $500 champagne and wine. I don't have a desire for those uber expensive things though. Could be because I never had them lol I would try my best not to lose touch with who I was as a person to begin with.

It would broaden my philanthropical side nod I'm almost always broke because of my generosity lol I won't hesitate to help family or even strangers even if it means I need to go with less.

I would probably feel more secure about my family's future, and insecure about my family's safety..I've heard of lottery winners being contacted by the police saying their kids had been followed in a possible kidnapping plot...
I'd hear from alot of relatives I never knew i had...

I feel i give what I can to charitable causes i believe in..i'd be able to do more that way..

I wouldn't forget the friends I have now

The secret of happiness is not in seeking more, but in developing the capacity 2 enjoy less..

It's true that money can't buy you happiness, but it sure does take a lot of stress out of daily living...and that's worth something.


Big, HUGE co-sign to that! My friend and I were saying the same thing once. It would be nice not to have to worry about money all the time.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you.
