Ninety-Two.

Meant to write this yesterday, but fell asleep, so here it is now.
Ninety-two, that is quite a big number, but it could also be a small number, it just depends on perspective.
If someone has 92 hairs left on their head, that isn’t a lot! If someone has 92 spots on their face, that is one too many!
I was shocked yesterday when, when I heard the number 92, I thought I had heard it wrong, but no, I had not heard it wrong at all.
There was to be a boxing match, and both boxers would get the same amount, for the fight. Nighty-two million dollars each! You nor I can’t comprehend that kind of a wage, for a few minutes work, but we are not important enough, for anyone to come and see us fight, and watched from around the world. It was free to watch on Netflix.
What would I do with the money? I would spend a million on all the TKMaxx stores in England. I would stay in Malta for 6 months; I would give a million to my Church. I would give a million each to Danel, Meghan and Paul. I would of course retire, with immediate effect! With one million pounds I would give £100,000 to each family member or friend who I know would appreciate it, as a, “Thank you.” I would give my grandson, Darius £500.000. I would give a million to be shared with 10 different charities, including my local hospice, no I would give one million to my local hospice. I would go out, with £100 in my purse and give it out to people in their hand, as I felt led, this would include those sitting outside some shops begging. I would like to think, I would make their day.
I would have my hair done, more often than I do now, and have clothes made to measure, from fine linen, with beautiful silk blouses, and hand knitted jumpers from Scotland, everything one colour gray!
I would take great pleasure, walking into five small businesses with a thousand pounds in cash, and saying, “I am here to bless you, use this in any way that will help you.”
I don’t think, money should be kept, when there are dire needs all around. I believe, if I am blessed, then I should bless others too, as none of us, can take it with us when we die, no matter how rich we are.
I have enjoyed spending my imaginary money, thankfully Anthony won! I am SO pleased about that, the other guy who was about 2 stones lighter, lost he had his jaw broken in TWO places. For 92 million, I suppose that was worth it.
Yesterday, when Daniel told me about the fight and the wages, I said, “They will both be set up for life!” But having just ‘spent’ so much on others, maybe not. Years ago, $92 million was a lot, but it is not a lot for the rich, or those who will squander it.
Well done, Anthony. x
