If I won the lottery, I would start by ending the homeless problem in my state. All it would take would be one stroke of the pen and many people’s lives would be improved.
Noble, but I’ve got some very bad news about how much it would take to end homelessness in even the smallest state in the country, as even if the 500 mil you’d be left with after taxes could do it, which it couldn’t, more homeless people would move to that state immediately
ok. you can afford to fund Utah’s homeless problem for 1.5 years, with 500 million, which is what you’d be left with after winning the 1 Billion dollar lottery
and then you start getting sued cause someone hurt themselves in one of the homes you put them in, or it burned down, or any of a thousand other reasons, because greedy shitheads exist and are plentiful and will gladly turn your sweet treat into acid in your mouth in a heart beat if they think they can squeeze more blood out of you.

Utah managed to do it and they’re doing just fine.

You can always start a foundation to keep the money flowing in. People would donate
Foundations do not exist to solve problems. They exist so their founders can profit either socially and financially off of them.

I would definitely have to lawyer up and get as much of my ass covered as possible. Huzzah!
