Brewsters millions would be so easy in 2024. Just train some AI.

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.

Then maybe graphene OS would be able to get enough people to maintain non-pixel builds.

Especially after I’ve bankrolled GrapheneOS, Ladybird and all my favourite FOSS projects.

According to the book The Starfish and the Spider, which is about decentralized organization versus centralized organization, the Spanish Empire was able to defeat the previously-undefeatable Apache resistance by giving gifts of horses to some of the Apache leaders. It provided them status, creating a hierarchy, turning the Apache society into the sort of thing that could be destroyed in conventional battle.

Not saying it’s a very tight analogy, but I would be wary of changes in team culture resulting from a project going from volunteer based to well-funded.

Obviously open source projects need resources, such as servers and github accounts and all that, but spirits change when resource flows change, and projects excel or flub on spirit.

Can I buy 100MM in gold?

You’d have 100M in gold to spend.

Just buy one ticket to a Taylor Swift concert and you’re already a billion dollar richer

zbyte64 ,

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

stiephelando ,

You’re overpaying, justices aren’t that pricey

cm0002 ,

Yea, once you’ve bought all of the SC ig you could spend the remaining 99 million on Congress or something

Quickie marriage with a $100 million prenup

Then rail the maid of honor on the wedding cake table. Time’s a wasting!

I’m gonna buy 100 million tacos. That should provide adequate sustenance for the doctor who marathon.

Etterra ,

I’ll just invest that into a nice, stable, diverse stock portfolio then, and use the dividends to both live on and start a charitable non-profit. Building shelters, donating to politicians who champion human rights, education, healthcare, founding free clinics, angel investing in co-op businesses, and funding food banks isn’t giving away the money after all. it’ll be slow going but pay broader dividends down the road.

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.

Single use luxury cars is my favorite one

garbagebagel ,

I would spend all 100M to get ads put up all over the country of people who have wronged me and my loved ones. They’ll just be like really awful pictures of them with really petty captions like “doesn’t help carry suitcases”, “laughed at a disabled person”, “sneezed too loud that one time”. That’ll show them.

Buy a/some 737 and start an airline. It’s easy to spend $100m.

Great movie. In this case, at end of this one you can have assets and apparently also tell your friends what you’re up to.

Treasury bonds here I come

Investments are probably covered under “gambling”.
