DDDDave-
I understand what you're saying completely. Realistically, $113M is a retarded amount of money. I think I might sponsor families. Find a family that is poor, or even middle-claas and working their asses off. I'd set up a fund for them where they could live off the interest. Why not? What would it cost me? $1M will give ~$50K per year, right? That's enough for most families to live on. They'd be welcome to still work on their own. I'd rather set someone up with an account like that then just give them a million dollars.
Actually, realistically speaking, I'd like to find a wealthy philanthropist who'd do such a thing for me! ;-) But seriously, if you HAD that kind of money, you could help a LOT of people. With something like the above funding for a family, you could help a dozen families (for say $12M total) and nver actually SPEND any money... you just give them a weekly stipend out of your own interest. *shrug* Why not, right?
