I always wanted to be a actor when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a silly idea. As it turns out, they were wrong.
If I won $100 million, I'd give two thirds of it to family and friends, then spend the rest on new home, new car and kick ass computer.
In 10 years, I hope to be alive. I'm going to get there by living..
