What would you do if you won a
million dollars? Faint? That's the
probable.first reaction of many of
us. When the initial shock and the
initial joy passes, what happens?
Imagine the pressures you'd
face if you became an overnight
millionaire.
First, you would have to
decided what to do with all that
money. You might "blow" a few
thousand dollars just to
celebrate.
You could buy a bigger house
and a second car. You could outfit
yourself with a whole new

wealthy, your old friends and

resentment is only one of the
come true.
Sooner or later, though, your
head would come down from the
clouds. How would you handle the
more serious side of owning a
million dollars? Paying the bills
is a logical idea.
Investment also sounds wise. If
you know nothing about in-

determine where to place your
money? Many people would

You wouldn't want to be
