If I had an Extra 100,000 to give away...

I would give it to the people who don't have money but try to give it away to people even less fortunate than they are more or less like they do on Secrete Millionaire.

My name is Michael Kelly, my parents died when I was 12 ,my sister Bridget was 16, my brother Lawrence was 18 and my other brother was 19. My father had a heart attack on the trip to the United states and my mother committed suicide soon after. was a hard trip when we arrived an Eilis Island we made it through and I got a job as labour in the docks. While Lawrence and Bridget were carpenters and Thomas worked at the woodmill. We got a four bedroom house one for each of us we started out with little to eat but after a while we got used to the small amount of food. After a few years we got more money and were able to afford more food and better cloths. But after five years in America Lawrence died because he was he by a car on his way to work. He was 33. Eventually got over it. We rented his room for some extra money.

Statue Of Liberty

The New Colossus

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,

With conquering limbs astride from land to land;

Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand

A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame

Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name

Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand

Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command

The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.

"Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she

With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,

Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,

The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.

Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,

I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"

Emma Lazarus’
