I don't believe in most charitable organizations. I would love to do something charitable, but only if I control how money is spent.
Or better yet, I would rather travel and give the money directly to people personally, without any fixed/overhead organizational costs associated with that. Low key, but more efficient.

I am not really sure what I would do with all that money. It's easy to think what you might do while you don't actually have the money, but I tend to think it would be entirely a different story once you had the money in your possession.

Here are a couple things I would expect to do:

1. Take $300,000 and put it in a high interest bank account

2. Buy a house that would cost around $300,000 - $400,000

3. Buy my mother a smaller house around $150,000 - $200,000

4. The rest would be invested in my company and possible other online business adventures, with the hope that would in return bring in a decent cash flow that would provide money for all the extra goodies.

Well I guess I wasn't clear on it.

Personally, I'd give it to say a College Student, that could show he/she needs it and would be putting out good grades. Things like that, because many students and people DON'T get chances due to cash, living standards etc.. etc..

I'd take like half of it and put it into a business buy some stock and whatnot. And then put the rest in the bank.

That would be a great idea, seeing as you can't really invest it in our stockmarket anymore
