If I Had $1 Billion, I Would: Take 250 million and put it in an investment account and live off of the interest. I would spend 1 million immediately for fun on travel, shoes, handbags, and apparel. I would give 250 million to my family. I would give 50 million as an endowment to Lehigh Rowing. I would give another 50 million as an endowment to my high school and hope that some of it is used to start a crew program. I would give 50 million to AIDS research and another 50 to Cancer research. I would give 99 million to Make-A-Wish and the other 200 million left would go toward poverty alleviation and establishing proper mental health care for the poor and otherwise troubled.
