Easy, buy up a bunch of land for conservation

Easy! Just spend the month in a US hospital without insurance

Hopefully the billion will cover the rest of the bill

Sent this to my friend at AWS and he said it was already all-over their internal Memes Slack channel. At least their engineers and project managers are in on the joke. 😁

Create a serverless function on AWS that calls a serverless function on Azure, which calls a serverless function on gcp which calls a serverless function on Oracle cloud which loops it back to AWS.

Now stick CloudFlare in between each step of that.

Genie never said they'd give me a 100M to spend in the first place. No way I'd be able to spend 100M that I don't have.

Ever heard of this game called "Star Citizen"?

I'd spend 100M in a month easily. Especially after I've bankrolled GrapheneOS, Ladybird and all my favourite FOSS projects. They also didn't say anything about charity which IMO isn't gifting. Once I feel like I've sufficiently contributed to society I'd buy a 50ft sailboat, pimp the shit out of it with solar and fuck off forever.

With the billion I'd establish a fund that pays out monthly to any projects I deem worthy and funds all food banks in my local area indefinitely.

"Can I invest in crypto"

"I already said no throwing it away"

Buy a few houses? How long does that take if You have cash?

I would've thought that this could be quite simple.

• A few flights in a private jet, or long-term purchasing for the whole month to take you wherever you want.
• Several $250k-500k cars in each location to take you wherever you want
• A private show from a famous band can set you back a few million. Do this each day.
• Go to Vegas and get in a pissing content with some rich cunt where you send expensive drinks to each others table, until one folds. That'll be a few million each night.
• Trump spent a ton on sex, so high class hookers?
• A few ads across multiple providers to promote something
• Prize fights can be set up quickly, and have the best in combat sports ready in 30 days. Offer $1m per division for the winner, and do it across maybe 4-5 sports, pay for TV and streaming, set up a venue, and you'll probably blow through it all.

Easy. Buy 100 homes in my city. Become a landlord. Barely ask rent so it's technically not gifting. Use my infinite money to maintain the homes so people have affordable decent housing. Profit for all!

I feel like I could easily spend that in microtransactions on some scummy mobile game.

Start a company.

Create a product.

Price it at $100m.

Buy said product from my own company.

Just pay for a couple people's cancer hospital bills.

Can I do the lobbying thing to get a nice human rights or climate law passed or is 100M still too poor for that

Surely the answer to this is to buy really short term options. Bad case is you lose all the money and get a billion. Good case is that you make even more money.

Treasury bonds here I come

I'll buy $100m worth of stocks from all the public companies every month.

Buy a supreme Court justice with the first 100M, then the rest of the court with the other Billion.

Soooo easy, buy some "art" at an auction, probably take me two days.

Can I just keep the 100 million? I don't think I need a billion.

Crash the dollar by entering the whole amount in the stock market? Or are stocks also considered gambling?

Would donations count as gifting? There are so many FOSS projects that could use the cash inflow.

If it doesn't count, well, prepare for a deluge of hentai to show up in a month.

Just buy some commercial property, island, luxury house that is worth 100M, it can be done in less then a week. 3 weeks left to think and organize how to spend 1 billion in 1 day.

The problem is that it's so much money that you can clear out the inventory of almost anything you would buy while only chewing a few percent off the bankroll. Provided you can close on them in time, buying up some high end houses, or just a whole lot of land, is probably your best bet. Being a cash deal on your end helps move the paperwork faster. They're also durable goods that don't need a warehouse to be stored, and don't need any maintenance for a while.

Give it all away anyway. Screw that genie, wealth hoarding jerk. At worst he kills you and you leave a saintly legacy.
