The average state lottery has a jackpot odds of about 100,000,000 to 1 of winning, and I have always dreamed of being that one lucky winner. In life we all will experience some sort of event that will forever change us as a person and makes us see life differently. For me, winning the lottery is that life changing event I have always day dreamed happening to me. I believe a lot of good can come from such a change, however, with a change of this magnitude will also come some bad. Unfortunately, most people who will win the lottery will just use the money for their own selfish reasons, and not to help someone in need. I believe if you win you should use it as an opportunity to change the world. If I were to ever win the lottery I would make significant

You will always need someplace to call your home, of course with millions of dollars to spare that little piece of home would look similar to a mansion and not so much the two bedroom apartment I shared with my dad. With my new luxury home, I would want a new car to match my new lifestyle. Therefor, I would get rid of my old Hyundai Sonata I currently drive, and buy a brand new sports car. Of course, someone would have to show me how to drive my new fast car. My current vehicle is a four-cylinder and driving a sports car would be a drastic change in how hard you need to push the pedal. I know it may sound like all I want are luxury items, but that is not all true. You see I begged my dad for many years to let me have a puppy at our apartment. However, my dad told me if I wanted a pet I would have to move out and get my own place first. The first thing I would buy before anything after I would the lottery would be a pug puppy. Anyone that knows me personally knows that I have a true obsession with pugs and absolutely adore everything about them. No purchase would bring as much satisfaction as a new baby pug would bring …show more content…
My first step in helping other people would be to help people in my family. I would never want to see my family struggle financially if I have the opportunity to change that issue. My father is currently a self-employed business owner of a small machine shop in our local area, and that is how he 's a made a living through the years. Every now and then my sisters and I will ask him why he does not go out and find a job that makes more money. He simply answers he does it because it is what he loves to do. I would love to have the money to invest in his business to help it grow like he has always wanted it to. That way he will be able to make more money while also doing what he loves to do. The next issue I would want to handle would be to donate money for cancer research. Within the last six months I lost both of my grandmothers due to cancer. I remember how heartbreaking it was watching them suffer through chemotherapy and trying various treatment options just for it all to fail in the end. Watching someone you love and care about suffer is something I would not wish onto anyone. Therefor, if I won the lottery I would want to donate money to cancer research so they can find a cure. This way, no family has to go through what me and my family went through.
Even though I have a better chance of being struck by lightning than I do winning the lottery, I still have hope
