But yeah after some thinking - I could buy a few small office buildings, hire some immigration lawyers to help with getting immigrants processed more efficiently into legal residency, maybe help them open businesses that serve their own communities so they can be productive, pay taxes, contribute to society in a positive way. And fully fund a few LBGTQ++ groups that help folks within that community seeking counseling and support. And maybe pay someone who's already proven to do a great job of managing a medical group, manage some clinics in medical deserts around the country so poor folks can have the same quality and availability of care as wealthier people. And definitely I'd find out the "most needed" locations where there are bodegas struggling, and contribute to paying their rent so they can keep prices low for their own communities, while still maintaining pride of ownership and dignity that comes with working for your business. I'd also probably want to open a few Veterans medical clinics, something like Urgent Care meets Rec Center, where our veterans can congregate together AND receive excellent care, while maintaining their independence. And then - I'd take the areas where homeless people are living in tents, and build tiny house neighborhoods in the vicinity, and let those homeless people live there under the condition that they live peacefully, maintain the property, grow their own community garden, and any who are eligible for public financial assistance, receive it and use some of it to pay for the community's upkeep. They need and deserve permanent addresses. Many who have mental disabilities, can't receive disability checks, because they can't maintain a permanent residence and that is one of the criteria to receiving disability checks.

You don’t have George so so Money if you win. Especially after mister tax man comes calling. The billion turns into maybe 300 million if that. Then after you waste most of it probably be broke in two years like most lottery winners.
