Create a serverless function on alibaba 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 alibaba.
Now stick CloudFlare in between each step of that and we should hit 100M by Tuesday.
Finally, a use for NFTs
Edit: Wait, nevermind, they said no throwing it away
This basically the premise to Richard Pryor’s movie “Brewster’s Millions” except that one of the rules was that you cannot buy or own anything. At the end of the month you must have spent the money and have nothing to show for it.
The answer is politics. Spend it all on a political campaign.
I loved the bit where he spent a small pile of that money on an Inverted Jenny postage stamp then used it to send a postcard.
That is inherently a gift then, donation? No different that giving it away and morally lesser to giving to the poor. Breaks one of the rules.
Oh no. The no gifting rule is also in effect. It was his own political campaign.
Okay, this nerd sniped me super hard. Sure you can spend it on a big massive project like a mansion or whatever, but you aren’t going to be able to have it finished (and thus paid for) in a month.
Not too mention if you do want to drop that much money at one, there’ll be many checks in place. Your bank will block your account for “suspicious activity”. The person who you are paying will probably want to run a background check or just refuse to take payment up front.
You’d have to justify where you got that money from as well, most likely, and saying a “genie” probably would get you some strange looks and perhaps arrested.
I legit don’t know how you’d actually get rid of that much money in a month.
Stocks, bonds, annuities
That’s equity. Not spent money, just less-directly-available cash… But if that doesn’t count, real estate technically doesn’t either… Really tough question, depending on the circumstance
Just pay people to be your shoppers and buy as much as they can for you. And give them a good salary for it. Hiring people is not giving it away, and they are buying the stuff for you. Or hire like a private concert with someone. So many things to spend money on.
I’m assuming that if the genie is giving you the money, magic will take care of some of those concerns.
I get 100m up front, right?
Right?
That’s easy, buy all the real estate in an area that’s for sale, scarcity will drive up the value of the properties you have bought. Economics 101.
– This is sarcasm and is poking fun of wall street buying up all the property to be landlords, the world and economy are much more complicated than this… But, it is a quick way to spend $100m in 30 days
Takes a long time to close sales like that… Although I suspect paying above market rate for things would help grease the wheels.
