ReplyDeleteif i had had all that money i would prob create foundation to help drug attics and make a rehab or somethin because drugs are becoming more and more poplular every year and more poeple are dying from them
ReplyDeleteif i had the money of bill gates i would start a fund for better schools for hati and jamacia so they will be able to get better jobs and an education and then i would go to shaws and get some cookies for a job well done yay
ReplyDeletei agree with jake, i would probably try to spread the wealth and make a company that helps people in 3rd world nations make a better living.
ReplyDeleteI would let the money expand to try and get more for those who need it and give most of it to our country so once we pick ourselves up we can help other counrties from falling down in poverty spano has a good idea
ReplyDeleteI agree with both brian and jake helping out the third world countrys would be great, to make sure that they are living easy and to make sure that all the hurt and dieng would end
ReplyDeleteIf i had that kind of money i would create a foundation to make clothing to send to 3rd world countries.
ReplyDeletei think jesse has a really good idea alot of people neglect drug addicts
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jake, people do tend to neglect drug addicts, it would be better if more people got involved to try and help.
ReplyDeleteOh great. Steal my drug and alcohol help ideas! Lol
ReplyDeleteI would use money to create an organization to help save the ocean because there have been more and more oil spills in the oceans these days which have been harming the ocean creatures. I think it's funny, but nice how many people thought of drug and alcohol aid ideas!!!
ReplyDeleteif i had all that money i would buy a lot of food to feed it to kids in africa then i would help find the cure to cancer because alot of people have cancer and there is no real cure
ReplyDeletewell that's not entirely true nick there are some hospitals that use chemotherapy and certan types of experimental medacines that have been working for some time but it's a 50/50 shot with the pills and the chemo cause the radiation kills all types of cells in the body most of the people have survived some are not so lucky
ReplyDeleteI would create an organization to aid wildlife and prevent the the destruction and extinction of endangered animal species.
ReplyDeleteI also agree with jake that jesse had a good idea, they are often overlooked
ReplyDeleteI would help build up countries. I would help build schools for children to get a good education, give money to people below poverty, and start a food bank so nobody would go to bed hungry.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Michael about funding money for schools, it is very important for us to get a good edcuation
ReplyDeleteIf I had enough money I would start a organization that dealt with disasters such as fires, earthquakes ext... I believe this would be beneficial due to this past year events such as the quake at Haiti, the Oil spill in the Gulf and the fire in Canada. Mike has a good idea about the organization to protect endangered animals also.
ReplyDeleteif i had the money of bill gates i would start a fund for better schools for hati and jamacia so they will be able to get better jobs and an education
