My arm has Zeus on the shoulder cap, Aphrodite on my forearm as she’s the patron saint of maritime travellers and I’m in the navy.

I am in the Canadian navy so having Aphrodite as the patron saint of maritime travellers makes me feel safe at sea. I have many other tattoos but my right sleeve is the best work for sure.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?My arm tells a story of Greek mythology with Zeus at the head pack glaring. Then Aphrodite is quite solemn and calm as one hopes she would bring to the seas. Then Aristotle on the inner bicep speaks of logic and stoicism. Finally Perseus holds medusas severed head in conquest on the inner forearm.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I won $25,000 I would be able to donate $5000 to 5 worthy charities focused around supporting men’s mental health/suicide prevention awareness as unfortunately nearly 12 men a day lose the battle with their mental health; and with the remaining money I could put towards a down payment a home with my spouse.
