You Should Give Away Money That Wasn't Yours To Charity
Hypothetical You're a middle class man with a great family, a good job and a decent life style living in Africa. You acquire a sum of money (your own currency) from an unknown source. You can be FOR and improve your own life style and your situation. Or AGAINST and improve a school and help a village not to far from your home. Go in depth. The money is 300 million. NO ONE ELSE IN YOUR FAMILY NEEDS HELP NONE OF YOUR RELITIVES NEED HELP AND NOTHING NEEDS TO BE FIXED OR REPAIRED THAT YOU OWN. Enjoy.

Yes, I would give away money that was not mine to charity. Example: My husband and I were out Christmas shopping and found 10 dollars in the parking lot when leaving the mall. I know 10 bucks is not a lot to most people, but in our situation it could have helped with something. Instead of spending that money, we put it in the Salvation Army bucket in front of Wal-mart. There is always someone out there that is more needy than you. Be thankful for what you have.

I didn't have enough room to write.
My i add that the letter that told you what you had to use the money for was lost and that the African village had just been attacked and the school was damaged along with 6 homes destroyed. Have fun.

 I would definitely donate a large sum, but I wouldn't give it all away.

I would save extra money for my family generations under me why should an average joe give away his money in these times when they could save it and hopefully have it be used for something you know would be worth truly hard working money while the rich corporate people take it and buy new cars but we have to give it away i say people who truly have the money to spend should give it to something worth while

Hard to be able to relate to a man in Africa. The needs are much different pending where in Africa. I personally would see to it that my family and friends were safe and protected and if that were to mean leaving the country I would.
