If You Had 10 Million Won, What Would You Do?
If I got that money, it would be hard to not buy everything I want. So first, I will deposit half of the money in the bank. Then I will give some of the money to my parents. I think it will be hard to give away that money, but after giving away that money, I will be proud of myself. I will give my two younger brothers some money. I think I haven’t done anything for my brothers yet. It may not be a big thing for my brothers, but I wish my brothers knew my feelings. I will donate the rest. It may be a small thing, but contributing to society is meaningful.

If I had 10 million won right now, what would I do first? I think almost everyone may have experienced dreaming of this situation. In my case, every time I imagine that, I always think about buying brand-name bags for my mother. Last weekend, my mother came to Daegu to go shopping with me. I told her that I need summer clothes, so we went shopping and happily bought a lot of clothes. But when we finished shopping, I realized that most of the things we bought were my clothes and there were few items for my mom. Like most mothers in the world, my mother always gives up her own interests for other family members. I feel both very sorry for and thankful to my mother for her sacrifice. So if I had 10 million won, I would spend all the money on my mom.

I want to spend ten million won on the sick people in the world. I would give starving children something to eat. I would build a school for children who sincerely want to study. In the world, there are many orphans, so I want to establish Baby Sitter, a caretaker organization. I think many people have mental illness, so I would like to treat them with therapy. Ten million won is a lot of money, and it isn’t. If I got ten million won, I would use it to ease the pain of this world. I hope all people are healthy and happy. With ten million won, I want to make the world happier than now.

When asked what you would do if you get ten million won, people would say they would buy what they want, go on trips, put it in the bank or contribute to the poor. I also want to buy many things, hope to travel, need to save for school, and would help poor people. However I want to share my feelings with people because I can’t usually express my heart. Even small gifts are meaningful like having dinner or going on excursions with family or friends, or even giving a neighbor's child a teddy bear. Those small things are pleasurable to them. Some people could say it’s too much money to spend like that. Just take a look around; there are many people you could help in some small way.
