That's a grand feeling that I've known infrequently.

I remember watching this gentleman on the Phil Donahue afternoon show as the attendees stood up and pitched for his money. He would listen to their story and either refuse or tell them to see him after the show. One black fellow wanted several thousand $$$ to attend a culinary school and P. Ross granted him the money.
This is the same fellow who would walk around and give a silver dollar to just about anyone.
I always thought that if I won a mega-million dollar lottery that I would grant super low interest loans to those that I knew who wanted to buy a house. Not just give them the money, but to have them be responsible to their agreement.
