For me, the first thing I'd do is clear my family of all debts(or whatever financial issues) there is and then the second thing i'd do is buy a hundred Siomai for me to eat

What are you buying if you won One billion dollars?

After setting up my family for life, I'd use the rest to start a micro-lending company for small businesses to get started or expand. I'd open them next to dollar stores and hire lots of bilingual people. We'd have free business plan advice, too. For fun I'd buy houses in lousy neighborhoods, fix them up and fit them out with solar and geothermal systems, then offer to trade the house with a neighbor and repeat the process. This would cost money but a billion can go a long way one house at a time and see step one.
