IELTS English Podcast - Speaking Topic: Money

[@JacksEnglish]

Hello students! If I gave you a million dollars, what would you buy?😀

[@anupreetkaur4747]

I would purchase a large house with modern furniture sir .what about you sir? I really enjoyed this episode sir .

[@JacksEnglish]

@@anupreetkaur4747 Yes, a large house is a popular choice. My choice too!😀Thanks or sharing~

[@mahmoudmz3432]

I would buy a gold bar to invest it in the future.

[@sandhyamahajan7482]

I will start orphanage home for children

[@chiragdas4361]

I would use that as a lifeline to solve my financial problems which are stuck for none other than the money. Furthermore, i just wanna explore my dream places with my family like high mountains of Kedarnath which is known for his devotional thoughts. More than that I would prefer to do some altruistic acts ,That's it.

[@abdulrehmanwazir6702]

You are right.

I wish I found your channel before I took the exam. It’s so beneficial!! Thanks for creating this incredible channel!!

[@quangao8148]

Hi Jack, I can’t imagine how the feeling is if I have a million dollars but I could tell that I would spend a half to do charity first such as help all of population in my province who were impacted by covid’s pandemic. A half of the other half which I will squirrel away at the bank for my parents and my little brother. Finally, I will use the remaining amount of money to begin my career.

[@JacksEnglish]

A wonderful plan for this huge amount of money!😀 By the way, don't forget to use 'would' instead of 'will' as this is just an imagined scenario. Thanks for sharing!

[@aklimanishad2417]

Hello sir, I wish I get your channel minimum 6 months ago! You are a highly intelligent teacher. However, I would like to meet with you oneday. Fingers crossed it would come true because I am getting prepared myself to become an International student.

[@JacksEnglish]

Thank for the kind comment! Good luck in your preparation!

[@jannatulbaki9582]

Thank you!

Hi Jack! Unlucky, I couldn't watch your video immediately after posting because I had a headache for a few days ago. My answer would be: I would buy a big house that has a massive garden, buy a car, and I would travel to some Europe countries and the USA. If that would be true, I would do whatever I want. Thank You for telling us know about hypothetical. I didn't know about it before.

[@JacksEnglish]

I'm sorry to hear you had a headache, Layla. Your answer is great! One thing: in the 'if' clause, it's rare to put 'would'. So it would be more natural to write 'If that were true, I would do whatever I want'. Thanks for sharing your answer!

[@normabeatriz4247]

Hi, Jack! Nowadays people are judged so many by what they have that they sometimes have to call themselves "minimalists" to maintain the respect of acquaintances.

[@JacksEnglish]

Hi Norma! Yes, there seems to be a movement towards the minimalist lifestyle. I wonder if it's also because people are burnt out by consumerism. Minimalism is not for me but I can see the appeal! Could you be a minimalist?

[@normabeatriz4247]

Hi Jack! I’m a new follower from your channel because I would like to prepare for my IELTS test. If you gave me a million I would like buy an amazing house with a spacious garden and a big swimming pool. I learnt to swim when I was a child and it’s my favorite sport! Thanks

[@JacksEnglish]

Welcome to the channel! I hope my videos help you in your test preparation. And I love your example; I totally share your dream!😀

[@akankshashetye5706]

Hi jack! I always love your videos. Well, if you gave me one million dollars, I would first be very thankful to you ofcos. Then probably i would use half the money for investing in stocks and the rest i would use it to pursue my higher studies abroad. Apart from that, I would also spend the money for renovating my old house so that my family could live a comfortable and happy life.

[@alvaroestrada3996]

If you gave me one million dollars i would immediately break into resl estate business 🔥🔥🔥

Hi Jack that was such a fabulous podcast, I really loved it! Well, if you give me million dollars , I would invest in renewable sources and change the overall power supply in the city where I live with renewable sources and help with the target against climate change and avert this global disaster.

[@JacksEnglish]

An excellent way to use the money! By the way, when you talk about an imaginary situation, make sure you use the past tense in the first clause. So ‘if you GAVE me a million…’ Thanks for sharing!😀

[@TamHoangTran]

Why do you always mention about Korea??? Tell me the reason!

[@jobyjose5526]

Hi jack. If I won the lottery. I would buy a spacious house in my country side and I would also like to buy a good music system.because I love music very much. Please correct my sentence if I made wrong .

[@JacksEnglish]

Oh good answer, Joby! I think I would like the same! The only mistake is we should say 'the countryside'. Good job!👍

[@mohdghouse6589]

Hi jack, if i won the lottery firstly I would like to thankfully by him because he gives me a huge money in chance by winning a lottery, secondly I'd be able to dreams come true in my life, so that's would be a great thing. Please correct my sentence if i wrong. Thank you.

[@JacksEnglish]

Hi, Mohd! With your second point, use 'I'd be able to make my dreams come true'. This is a common expression when talking about the lottery. Also, 'that would'. Thanks for sharing!

[@tubbabibi]

I would buy a house in the country side I would take too many swings I would wander the world

[@rahulrocksrl]

Hi Jack If you would give me a million dollars, I will faint and then when I regain consciousness I would go and buy an apartment, a shop and 5 tickets to Dubai, and continue travelling around the world till the content of my heart.

[@JacksEnglish]

A great plan! By the way, it's more common to say 'till my heart's content'. Thanks for sharing your answer!

[@studentuz1501]

I would build study centre, if I had a million dollars. And teach free some students who cant afford it

[@JacksEnglish]

That would be a wonderful thing to do with the money👍

[@syedreshma5852]

If I will get a million dollars then I would start a compnay

[@JacksEnglish]

Good example! Just be careful with the first part of your sentence: 'If I GOT a million dollars...' This shows that it is not reality👍
