Easy, buy up a bunch of land for conservation
Buy $20 for $100 million. If you can “buy” nft’s then Idk why you can’t buy something with less value.
The $20 bill has a unique serial number just like the nft.
It’s even better because no one else can have that same bill at the same time.

I’ll tell you why: because there’s nothing with less value than an nft.
Lol That’s damn good.
You can buy medical debt, that has lots negative of value to the indebted.
…fair 😁
i believe the IRS would consider this a gift.
In “Bewster’s Millions” he also had to have nothing of value at the end.
So yes that is a good method for this formula of the question.
Easy! Just spend the month in a US hospital without insurance
Hopefully the billion will cover the rest of the bill
You know it won’t
The bill will come in nine months though. You have spend it within the month.
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.
Dude, you only have 100 million.
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.

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.
No gifting.
Charity isn’t gifting.
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.
This reminds me of a scam I fell for in Eve Online once
First get the spending money then do it. In a non-refundable unable to be altered manner (ignoring the magicially manifesting money part)
“Can I invest in crypto”
“I already said no throwing it away”
I genuinely laughed out loud at this one. 😂
Buy a few houses? How long does that take if You have cash?
It’s taking the premise of Brewster’s Millions, which required that he not only spend the money, but that he has to have nothing left at the end, including assets. So, buying a house doesn’t work because you still own the house.
Obviously there are still plenty of ways to drop millions on stuff without having anything to show for it. Hell, it’s probably easier now than ever before. Just become a whale for a mobile game and you’re there.
Excuse me, but my waifu has plenty of assets!
Mobile game, uhg! Think of the services: a month’s worth of the best eats: 90 meals from the world’s 100 most famous chefs, each flown in to serve you. (Presumably 10% would decline even $1m for a single meal.) Concerts from semi-famous bands every three nights. Boom, $100m spent!
Mobile games are easier and funnier though 😉
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.
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.
Single use luxury cars is my favorite one
Buy a/some 737 and start an airline. It’s easy to spend $100m.
I feel like I could easily spend that in microtransactions on some scummy mobile game.
Diablo Immortal entered the chat.
“Do you guys not have-”
“ohh dont worry, i’ve got ALL the phones”
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.
Sounds like gifting
In normal countries it’s called tax
Is paying for something for someone else not gifting?
In normal countries it’s called tax
Can I do the lobbying thing to get a nice human rights or climate law passed or is 100M still too poor for that
I’ll buy $100m worth of stocks from all the public companies every month.
Genie: Listen here you little shit
For a genie it may sound like gambling.
I call it investing if I can reason the reaons for specific stocks.
genie just doesn’t know how to read fundamentals
I’m just not sure if making an ancient wishmaster aware of stock trading is a good idea.
Stocks are liquid enough that the genie may not consider it “spending”. You could easily buy it, and then just as easily dump it. The move is also big enough that you’ll single handedly move the market in the process.
No gambling
I still “bought” the stocks besides almost everything we buy is a gamble anyways.
