This is 100 bil... not 100 mil.... jesus christ if you wanted to be selfish, you never even have to deal with 'investing it for More money'.

I'd buy myself a mansion in every sight worthy places in the world... do the super high profile lifestyle.. sleep with many many chicks.

By the way, saying "two chicks at once" is too predictable.

I would build a humongous robot, programmed to take out all of the male population all over with the exception of me of course. Then, I would destroy the robot and then it would just be me and billions of women. 😉

30 billion in bond market index,
30 billion in TIPs index,

thus ending human race. good job.
 
I know this won't be popular here but we would set up a center to help socialize and find homes for dogs and cats rescued from abusive situations or picked up off the streets. With that amount of money we could invest a significant portion of it to ensure that the work would be ongoing and somewhat self supporting.

Ah, but he didn't hire a mercenary team to kidnap Julianne Hough, transport her to that island he purchased, have her examined by the team of rogue scientists he lured there to conduct cloning experiments in a judgment free environment and then repeople the island exlusively with Julianne clones.

That takes a bit more cash.

you should be able to live comfortably with 100B without any sort of investment strategy.

I don't know his spending habits, thus the use of the word should.
 
I'd annually throw the best party and put Pdiddy to shame.
Build the craziest house architecturally in the world.
Let all my friends move in with me, but make the house big enough so that I wouldn't even have to see them if I didn't want to.
Get w/e the hell thats called where you get your teeth all capped so they look perfect.
Buy the whole area around my house and rename the roads outrageous things.
Donate a lot of money to my local school on the premise that they have to fire the office secretary cause she's a bitch.
Oh and I'd rub it in the face of everyone who's ever pissed me off.

Thats about it. Then I'd just chill out and live an easy life.

Oh wait.. I'd build houses all over the world and also have my own private jet.

and of course I'd hook everyone up on here with the most up-to-date powerhouse computer for life 😉

"New York man wins every lottery in the country!"

If I could keep a lid on it so that the media never found out how I did it, I'd have a ball convincing people that "I'm really from the future." I could perpetrate the biggest hoax of all time! With the other $90billion or so, I'd use a lot of it to help other people.

(Plus, since most states use the proceeds of lotteries for things like education or helping the elderly, I'd just think of it as an indirect way of donating it.)

Thats fantastic, lmao

It would take 14.7 billion just to ensure a victory in the California Super Lotto, so your plan probably would not work.

I think you spelled "million" wrong. I see a "b" there. Also, the first two digits are 41, not 14. 14.7 billion is off by a factor of 341. The real odds of winning the jackpot of the super lotto plus in California are 1 in 41,416,353.

Of course, you'll win a shitload of other prizes - 26 match fives, 42 match 4 & Mega, 1092 match 4 and no Mega, etc.

Best reply I've seen yet.

After this goes on for awhile we should start up a poll for the top 3 answers.
 
I would build an orphanage. Like which the world has never seen . Where the children that come here are pampered beyond belief. The best teachers and the courses taught would include practacal knowledge useage.

Make no mistake the kids that would come out of my orphanage would become very successful in whatever they endeavor to do in life.


Thats what I would do with every penny.
