Today was a pretty relaxing day. We did some office work in the morning and then had the afternoon off. I opted to take a nap and it was wondful! I am working on my 37th and 38th books of the year (the goal is 50), and I was doubting if I would get to 50, but I think with the time off here and the relaxing atmosphere, I will get there.
As we were setting up dinner tonight and waiting for the golfers to get back, the question thrown out was: If you won the lottery ($320 million with a take home of $200 million) what would you do? I said that I would go to Africa and feed starving people. Is it bad that my first instinct is to leave and help others? No offense to my family, I am sure that I would make certain that everyone was taken care of. And then I thought about investing in a camp or an urban ministry and paying off college loans and buying recording studio time so I could make a CD and many other things, cause holy cow, $200 million is A LOT of money, I am sure I could do all of the above and more. What would you do if you won the lottery?

I have thought about this question before and have always thought I would make sure my family is taken care and the organizations that I care about would also be taken care of - my church, Feed My Starving Children, Youth Encounter, Youth Works, various cancer organizations. I have often thought that I could make Jessica's dream of owning a wilderness camp that partners with an inner city church come true as well. Yes, Jess, it is a lot of money! Love you, Mom
That ia thought provoking idea. I,
myself, would be sure my family was taken care and then proceed to
help others who are less fortunate. Love ya, Daddie
don't feel bad...i would go to africa too! and have a orphanages all over the place for aids orphans. we could live there together and it would be awesome...and i guess matt could come with too. :)
