If I get a chance to win the first prize, how will I use it?
We all like to imagine ourselves richer than we actually are. Suppose I do a bit of day-dreaming, let no one ridicule me at my stupidity.
‘Charity begins at home’. So the first thing that I would do if I were to win the first prize is to look after myself and my family. I am the eldest member of a large family. My father is a farmer. We live in a countryside trying to make ends meet. He works very hard. But more often than not we are hungry. I would get rid of everything that makes life miserable and hard for us. We would move into a spacious house. I would buy all the luxuries of life, which would make life for my family easier.
A portion of my money would be spent on my education. I would work hard and as part of my education I would travel for some time to foreign countries. That would help me a lot to learn about other people, their customs, traditions, laws and ways of life.
Another part of the prize would he spent on doing some real good for my country. I would invest it to build lip business and industries. There upon I would multiply my wealth and be happy with satisfaction of contributing my share towards developing my country and uplifting the lives of its people.
I do not know how much more is left out of the prize after all this. If there is any left I would spend it for the spread of education among my countryside people. I know education is the greatest need of my country. I would see that education is made free and compulsory up to the age of sixteen. Thus I would help to lay the foundation of a well ordered Society.
I wish my day-dream would come true.
