Every time the subject of money comes up, I have to play this song…
Fandango was talking about the guy who won $2 billion in the Powerball, and asked the question everyone does after someone wins that much money…
You just won a giant lottery jackpot. What are the first three things you’re going to do with the money you won?
I suppose this is after Uncle Sam grabs his share of it. I’d still have a considerable amount left, of course. So, after that…
- I’d totally redo the inside of my house. I like my house and my neighborhood, but it’s not terribly handicapped-friendly, and the bathrooms and kitchen need redoing anyway. (Don’t they always?)
- Donate a hefty chunk of it to a few charities, including my parish, St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital, and the Lingap Center.
- Invest most of the rest of it in something safe.
After that, who knows? Only I do…
See you next week with a brand new show!

Our needs are really simple and we aren’t the type to go on vacations or anything. We might need a new car (ours is 20 years old now), and who knows, we might need a new roof or something. And you know how it goes, after 65 things start hurting or not working…
