What would you do?

If you were to win the lottery, what would you do with your winnings? I would honestly donate some of my winnings to charities. I would then put the rest in the bank. Most people start spending right off, but I would put the rest of my winnings towards school, or my future. Prices go up everyday, and people don't realize how fast money can come and go. Once you're hanging out with friends, money is extremely easy to spend.
Be careful with what you do with your money. The decisions you make can determine what the rest of your life will be like.

iCivics People's Pie

This is the first time I have ever played this game.  I understand that we are currently in debt but I had no idea it was that hard to manage money. I kept everybody satisified but I had to borrow ample amounts of money.  Eventually I would have to pay that back, put the position I was in disabled me from doing that. I had to payback more than I had in possession. However, I would have to keep borrowing to pay back, so it would basically be a circular financial issue. I wouldn't be able to acquire enough money to pay back the money that I borrowed.  I was put into a "mind reading" situation, for lack of better terms. I had to decide what to cut and what to fund, but at the same time, I had to keep the citizens happy.  It becomes more difficult to do what you think is best when you see that the citizens are not safice.  Overall, it was a fun little experiment, but it was also a challenge.

Lottery

The lottery to some people, is like messing with fire. It's not always a bad thing, but if you don't keep it under control you can get burned.  Playing the lottery is very similar to gambling. You're spending money to win more money. The odds are highly unlikely that you'll win. Look at it this way... when/if you win, the winnings will probably be about as much as you put into it. That's how unlikely the chances of winning are.
