Current Events > You get $1trillion tax free what you doing with it?

(+) Yeah! (+)

After I give 100 people $1billion (family and close friends first), im gonna buy up some video game company, the chargers, Nvidia, Intel, gamefaqs, get custom fitted medieval armor, I don't know the possibilities are endless.

Rocket into the sun

Pay someone to burn it

buy gamefaqs

cocaine and hoes

Buy my local football (soccer) team, knock down our stadium, rebuild it with a capacity of 80,000 to become the biggest stadium in Scotland. I'd charge 5 for matchday tickets regardless of league, and a Season Ticket that grants entry to every game played at the stadium. And I'd try to bring in a manager who would get a big transfer budget with which to try and get to the Scottish Premiership, then batter Rangers and Celtic.

I took inspiration from a news article I read about Ryan Reynolds, in it he was discussing his options on what team to buy, said trying to challenge Celtic or Rangers was pointless, then he obviously bought the Welsh team, Wrexham who play in England's 4th Tier.

I'd then make my own gaming company and work with various sports organisations to build the ultimate sports game covering all major & minor sports, fully licensed as well.

Start a video game development company. Buy some IPs and save the industry.

Pay off my student loans.

Then buy a very modest ranch with the tiny leftovers I have

Probably squander it on a bunch of pet projects that make me happy

Awesome house and lifestyle, massive donations to causes Im passionate about, starting with Blue Dragon. Maybe build and staff a load of free, high quality schools for children in poverty in Vietnam.

Give most of it away. I mean even 1% of that is more money then I could ever spend.

My first thought was pissing away a good amount on high quality TV show adaptations of things <_<

Like I'd love a show based on The Magnus Archives podcast

Invest in penny stocks

Pay off my brother's debt, buy my parents the nicest house money can afford around here, set my nieces and nephews up for life, send them to the best schools money can pay for, donate a ton to animal shelters and local charities.

And then I'd use the remaining 97% of the money to buy up the Parasite Eve and Dino Crisis licenses and have a team of overly well paid game developers make me a 100 new installments.

Not getting modded ever again.

Oh that's a good idea. Get shows and movies that I want made as well. I know it's silly but I thought of a resident evil show, based on the arkley mountains before the game. Get to know the people in the mansion. Depending on how much can get done in the first season, maybe have it end with the outbreak and the cliff hanger would be bravo teams entry.

Dude my friend has me listening to he Magnus archives and yeah that would be a crazy show. Would love a show on Nightvale as well of course. She has me Lauren to Nightvale first before the Magnus archives.

save the planet

Try to solve world hunger.

Like what the fuck else am I going to do to burn 1 trill? My dream house with all the shit could ever want will still leave me with an unspeakably idiotic amount of money.

If there's a way to take over the US and force socialism in the country, maybe that. I'd be at war with all the billionaires and millionares who do nothing but leech off the country's resources.

(Which means I probably get assassinated down the line)

But if I don't, enjoy your UBI

Buy up everyone's credit card/medical debt and forgive it.

Build affordable housing.

Buy property and have them rezoned for residential.

Donate to politicians to get them to do universal healthcare and other positive programs.

Create a non-profit that helps teachers afford supplies.

I dunno. I can be a bit selfish (but not what I'd call greedy) so first order of business will likely be securing my own comfort and lifestyle. Initial cost there is like a mil. maybe 2, tops. Prolly buy a fair amount of dumb shit I don't need. But my interests are not "billionaire spending" expensive. We're still looking at a mil or two covering all my shit.

From there, making sure my loved ones are taken care of if they need or want the carry. I know some wouldn't want me paying their way and they have reasons, but I'd make sure even for them a missed paycheck wasn't gonna ruin them.

Once my comfort and friends and family are taken care of, I'm still obscenely, outrageously, disgustingly rich and just sitting on it. So for sure donating a fuckton, and I'll have the free time to do my homework and make sure they are good charities.

From there... who knows? I'm a simple creature with simple wants.

With a quadrillion I'd buy all the companies destroying the planet and move us towards a more sustainable future.

With only a trillion? I'd spend 80% of it investing in technology and processes that could potentially save our planet. I'd spend most of the other 20% to buy up cherished IP's that corporations are fucking over (e.g. WoT, LotR, Mass Effect), as well as create my own IP that I've been stewing on for a long time.

Whatever's left I'd invest in myself, try to find a way to extend my own life while keeping the quality for as long as possible.
