All I know is that if I won the lottery it wouldn't change me.
I would be the same person I am today.....
Well... mostly. I mean instead of renting this house I'd buy myself a nice little 40 to 50 acre piece of land...in the ocean with a house on it. But other than that, I would be the same person I am today....
Well....I mean, if I had an island with a house on it, I am sure I would also have some nice resort style houses somewhere on that island. I would let my friends live there for free. The only thing I would require is that they call me, "His Majesty or His Royal Highness." I would also require them to go around saying how great a guy I am and how I am very humble. Perfectly humble, they would say. But other than that, I wouldn't change....
Except...If I had that island I just couldn't see myself living there without having some little guy with a cool accent informing me every time a plane flies overhead. However, I wouldn't make him call me His Majesty. NO, for him I would settle for him calling me Boss. I would have to buy me one of them little men....but really I wouldn't let that change who I am.
Of course, I would have a king sized bed (did I say, "of course?") with 100 dollar bills all over it...just so I could roll around in some of my money. Now, we both know I couldn't sleep in a bed like this, so I would have it in a separate room. Just a room with a bed and lots of money on it....but I mean, that wouldn't change me any.
One who is wealthy needs to be diverse. Not that it would change me any, but I would see placing some of my money into a gold investment. I think a nice bathtub made of solid gold would be a good and wise investment.
Everyone knows that if you have a small island home, you have to have a boat...you know, a small yacht would be quite nice. The only thing is it would have to have a helipad for my helicopter to land on. But none of this would change who I am.
See, I hear all the time how people would let winning the lottery change them. I figure none of them deserve the money if they can't have it without becoming someone they are not. Since the lottery wouldn't change me I figure I deserve to win that money.
It is too bad I don't win, cause we both know it would never change me.
