I'd buy up entire ghettos and rezone them into business districts. All the poor people will get relocated to the suburbs for the middle class to deal with.
 
At a reasonable rate of interest, you could spend $100 million a day and not run out of money. I'm pretty sure that's the definition of obscene.

Come on, you'd be rich. There's no need to become a prostitute. Besides, maybe no one would want it anyway. 😛
 
A) invest that shizzle and live off interest

B) buy a huge plot of land in the middle of no where

C) buy an Aston Martin DBS, and Bugatti Veyron

D) pick up hot college chicks in the cars mentioned in C) for lots of random safer then prostitute fun (say 5+ at a time on the bad nights)

E) build the fastest supercomputer just to play Tetris, Minesweeper, and flash/java based games

F) do whatever I want
 
Stuff $98 billion into my foundation that donates to charities in perpetuity after I die. Then have unlimited amounts of guilt free fun for the rest of my life.

If no one knew I had that money, I'd very quietly buy one of every possible lottery ticket combination throughout the US during one week.

"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.)

I would have a $75B sit-down with renaissance technologies. Then I would blow the other $25B on any and everything I can possibly imagine.

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