I was thinking about that given 100k, what would I do as charity.
I hope it will not sound selfish, but first I would ask friends and family do they have :
Big health issues that the healthcare system doesn't cover. Is it cancer, a tumor, surgery... anything that this money could help?
Children that can not pay their education that is important for their future
Unpaid debts, bills that would help move one step forward and start to focus on other things
After that I would think about a centre for acquisition of knowledge and skills such as sustainable agriculture, natural medicine, handicrafts, art, music, dance... As we should go back a bit to basics. The generations of the last few decades missed or received less this kind of preparation for life.
I believe helping family is an important thing. I have three brothers and a sister, and would help them (and their children) out if required before I helped anyone else, that's just how I am. Of course, they'd never ask for the help as they are like me, but I'd help regardless. I do not think it's a selfish thing Gabrielle, it is just as charitable as helping a stranger.
Your other three dot points are worthy recipients of your assistance also though and hopefully someone makes an error with the $100,000 and it ends up being $1,000,000 as I think you'd make good use of it.

Three brothers and a sister? This is exciting!!
Family and friends are important, yes. As we love them, we just want all the best them, so it was a natural thing to me to have them first in my mind..
Although, giving an opportunity to learn basic things is equally important. So, wouldn't mind, if the amount of money for charity is higher 😁
Claro que si la familia es super importantes, mis hermanos buscando mejores condiciones de vida emigraros y ellos apoyan nuestra vida aqui, donde estoy con mi madre y mi hija. Y todos los dias hago mas cosas y sigo optimista para sobrevivir.
Yes, I agree with you, it's important to make sure family is ok.
Sí, es importante. yo como niña tenía un poco de ayuda de mi tía.
Hay que seguir optimistam simpre. Aunque es difícil a veces, hay que tirar para adelante.
Gracias por tu comntario jennynas.
Padding it with an extra zero would certainly help get those bills and healthcare costs covered!
Just one? Might as well make it two.
Three extra zeros, please :D
Lol...Three works nicely doesn't it!
Now, after reading bigtom's response, those three extra zeros can be easily achieved... investing it first to btc :D So no worries, I would accept even that small amount of 100k... invest it, but if the investment fails, that would hurt. A lot
Ah yes, that's the thing with investing, one has the chance to lose one's capital, or at the very least have it severely reduced. But let's think about it...12 months ago spending $100,000 on BTC would have paid dividends now so...Good plan I'd say as the indication is things are moving upwards.
Hopefully, but to be sure, some more extra zeros would be fine :)
ENGAGEtokens.It doesn't sound selfish as long as it's been put to good use, charity cases doesn't talk only on education, health also come to play. Nice thought out plan you have
Thank you @jizzyjoe
Health is super important,we don't realize sometimes that the health condition in general can affect the quality of living.
That's right, taking good care of our health should be the priority of all
Yay! 🤗

"The generations of the last few decades missed or received less this kind of preparation for life" even my generation 😄 missed so many things that I wish I could learn but it's not late for me now.So many great ideas here @mipiano that I could not think of. Helping family is not selfish, sure everyone wants to do it 😊 Oh yeah, right
All good things to do to help people! Unpaid bills can really destroy some families. It would be nice to ease that burden with some money!
Back in time, I had my aunt who helped me financially with my studies. It would not be possible without her, so I know how that kind of help within a family can change lives.
I am afraid more and more unpaid bills with come for some families with this situation what is happening right now everywhere...
Well, well, well. It isn't a surprise that I'm astonished by something Gabriela posted. This is a display of kindness.
I love the last bit. It's true that a back to basics could help people understand their connection with history and the past and the planet.
Actually, I am astonished with the instruments you make. So that kind of work, not just making instruments, but you know, if something is broken in the house we should know how to make it work again without calling a technician. Or do some whole projects by ourselves.
:)
I try. A lot of learning about these things is actually breaking stuff. Ha, ha, ha. Well, I have learned how to fix many of the little things that tend to bother in the house.
🤣
That is the way.
A lot of learning about playing the piano is actually hitting wrong keys... and then trying to hit less wrong keys :D
That's how one learns to play an instrument in a nutshell.
I don't think it's selfish at all. We really can't help everybody... . You do your part to help those around you and family are the closest once around you.
I didn't think of the natural medicine part, but that's a great skill that sadly gets overlooked in these modern times.
Maybe there are places that natural medicine is still very well represented. But we are starting to forget about it and we just eliminate the symptoms with conventional medicine. Not always with success...
