Just a few minutes ago, andrea and i were happily discussing our grand plans just in case we win today’s lottery draw. She was bent on using about 80% of the would-be winnings on charity and special non-profit ideas with educational, health and environmental agendas. I, on the hand, was blissfully entertaining more personally rewarding options. Haha!

I was considering more self-serving ideas, just like buying an SUV that we could use for family outings. You see, since we promised to enjoy the beauty that the Philippines has to offer, I figured we’d have to do a lot of traveling. A reliable SUV should be an essential part of that. It doesn’t need to be expensive. It just has to be sturdy enough to handle possible off-road conditions, big enough to accommodate around 6 people with baggages comfortably, fuel-efficient, not too bulky to make parking easy, and of course decent-looking. Also, if possible, I hope it comes with vehicle tracking as well so it would give us a bit more peace of mind, since we won’t be sure of the people and places that we’ll be encountering.

I told andrea we don’t need to replace the red car. We could keep it and restore it to its once glorious form since it has been a vital member of our family from the very beginning. The SUV will just be an addition…

IF WE WIN THE DRAW! Haha! Okay! That’s it! I really better stop here before I get too carried away with the idea. That’s my dream car and it will stay that way until we get enough money to make it a reality!
