I wouldn't be able to accept that much money either, because I'm not ready for it and I wouldn't be able to do much good with it. It takes a lot of experience to earn that kind of money in the first place, and if you manage to do it then you should also have the knowledge of how to use it to make the world a better place. It's easy to see from the responses that nobody here would be able to properly handle that amount of money. For one thing, it's a lot more than a person can spend in their lifetime. There are only so many luxury cars, boats, planes, mansions, jewelry, private islands, etc. you can buy before it gets boring. And you'd still have most of a billion dollars left over. Such a huge amount of money isn't meant to be used by one person or one family solely for their personal use.
