Re: IF YOU WERE RICH

After making huge contributions to Beagle Rescues, I'd move to Paris in a minute...city center to be near all the markets and cafes.

Rich is a relative term. Having everything I need to live makes me feel rich.

That being said if I was billionaire rich there would be so many things to get done. My life would change, not extremely but there definitely would be signs.q

I would hire a housekeeping and a groundskeeping service.  Numerous charities would benefit from my financial wealth.

I'd see that those who have helped me over the years are taken care of. I don't know what I'd do with out them. Animal rescue next, then continue to spread the wealth.

I would, first thing, make sure my 2 adult kids were set up, then I would get myself set up and then look into the various charities.

To be honest, first I'd take care of myself, moving to an environment that functions better for me and hiring whatever help I need to maintain it. I'm not talking of anything ostentatious, just more to my liking that better meets my needs. There are a few friends I'd want to help out along the way but probably the bulk of my wealth would go to animal and wildlife charities, with a special fondness for felines of all kinds. There are a few other causes I'd remember as well.

I would help Our Veterans,  Cancer research, St Hubert's Animal Welfare Center in Madison NJ,  and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Then I would purchase a home in Avalon NJ.

The list is so long,underprivileged kids, animals, elderly, domestic violence, money for schools, food banks, , the performing arts, national treasures (parks, monuments, historic) . In my 20's I used to be so dazzled by the rich. Now I don't mind if they indulge on themselves, their families but really the ones who really dig deep impression me more.

I met Red Skeleton's daughter who used all her inheritance to open. German Shepherd recuse center. My kind of woman.

Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

I would help Veterans and feed anyone in need. Have a program that would help pay, rent, utilities and buy medication and clothing.

 All that plus I would walk away from this house!..Probably donate it to the animal shelter.
