I can’t imagine being able to travel the world at my leisure eating the finest foods mankind has to offer and saving millions of lives through charitable donations and yet wasting my life, money, and time picking losing fights with governments while defending indefensible shitbags on the internet.
Must just be something about billionaires I don’t understand 🤷♂️
It’s called supporting the arts. I’d just set up artist funds all over the country so that artists - visual artists, musical artists, theatrical artists, circus artists, writers, you name it - could learn, create, and share their work without struggling to get by.
But then, I’m a human and not a capitalist lizard masquerading as human, so art actually means something to me.
The thought exercise says no charity donations. I guess spending part of your million a day on a suite of lawyers to argue that arts funding on that scale is not a “charitable donation” is a valid use of the money. But, that would cut into the charity funding eventually.
Ok, I did actually miss that line about no charitable donations.
But I’m going to be annoying and argue that because of the gratification that funding artists would give me, it is actually a fully selfish endeavor and as such fulfills the requirements ;)

Its not annoying, its dodging the thought experiment entirely.
