Correct. Money is a tool. It can be used for good or ill. Plenty of deserving folks who could use a life raft. Plenty of Clinton Foundation types in need of an IRS audit.

Maybe slightly better odds.... I hit a $50K some years ago. I’ve given most of it back.

$700 million jackpot but you only come out with half of that?Considerably less than half, after taxes. Even more disappears if you're in a state with state income tax.

Money will not buy happiness but it does buy comfort and options. Poverty can cause severe unhappiness. Lottery winners are mostly not good with financial decisions hence a brief (time/money rate) spend mania then back to the poor house.

My thinking is that certain charitable AND political actions could be taken and that some would/could need to be perpetually funded.
