Envy
means a
feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else's
possessions, qualities, or luck.
Once upon a time there were
two friends and one of them won in the lottery. The other one seemed to be
envious of the other one, because of the lottery. The other one wondered what
to do about it. Was he going to be left out? Later that day he asked him what
he was going to do with the money. He replied that he was going to donate the
money to orphans and seemed to be pretty happy about it. The other one started
to doubt him and asked what he really was going to do with the money. He told
him again, that he was going to donate it, but the friend wasn´t happy about
it. A week later he had donated them to the orphans. The lottery winning friend
became famous for the donation and gained a lot of respect. The other one
didnt seem to stand the fact and committed suicide.

Way to go Mira, Lauri, Luka and Eric! The ending is harsh, though!
VastaaPoistaA couple of notes on grammar/spelling:
- one of them won in the lottery -> one of them won the lottery
- Later that day he asked him what he was going to do with the money - Who's asking who?
- and asked what he really was going to do with the money -> and asked him what he was really going to do with the money
- A week later he had donated them to the orphans -> A week later he had donated it/the money to the orphans
- The lottery winning friend -> The lottery-winning friend
- The other one didnt seem to stand the fact -> The other one didn't seem to stand the fact
