text: oprah-what i would do with $1000.00 if giving it to a stranger!? oprah, i have read some of the answers, but this keeps coming to my mind. we have to realize, there are so many people living here in the usa that needs help. i would find an elderly person ,maybe in a grocery store that don't have enough money to pay for their groceries, and pay for their groceries and make sure they have money for their medication. a person on a fixed income that can't make ends meet. so many elderly people don't have money for groceries or their medication. i am on a fixed income and it is so hard to buy me and my husband's medicine, groceries and bills. so i feel for the elderly so much. the government wants to send all this money over seas, and there are so many elderly people here in the usa who needs help. the government shoud open their eyes and help our country first. i would just love to take that very special elderly person, and take them and buy their medication and groceries, or anything else they might need, at least for 1 month. god bless our elderly. oprah, i have read some of your answers and i am big fan your show. if i gave $1000.00 thousand dollars to a stranger i would use the money for a foster family who needs the family for food medication water and a place to go to school and a  place to live for families who don't have a place to live. i would also save most of the money that i have or adopt an outcome so that they could have money and save some lives in other countries. if i could i can change one person or a whole country by giving a stranger just $1000.00 ten thousand dollars or even 10 million dollars this is what i would do for the people cause they need food and attention so badly and they would so grateful.
