Just a wonder on how you’d spend it. I’d probably buy up some land and build a nice village or town kind of similar to Poundbury. I’d probably sell houses at a fair price but only to people who send in a CV and seem to be upstanding people who actually want to work and be a part of a community, as well as giving them a mortgage Then I’d have a nice mansion and pretend to be a Lord where I can look over my wonderful tenants and maybe buy them Christmas gifts and send them birthday cards. Help them out if they need it.
Basically what some Lords did centuries ago but probably more kinder. Oh, and the place will be built with nice old timey architecture as well. Probably cobble streets because screw cars lmao. I just want to give people a nice life I guess as well as LARP as nobility
After buying a home in a nice, non-HOA demon neighborhood, probably end up working on a company that makes mid-range phones with a headphone jack, slot for 2 SIM cards and a microSD, and have the system run on a 3rd party Linux OS capable of running APK files and other android apps. I’d definitely wanna have good R&D put into making sure it sandboxes android apps and makes it only allowed to see what’s in the sandbox, though, so go*gle cannot see what you do.
That, or just straight up start up my idea for the Open Access Oasis community, where we believe open access to all scholarly articles found on databases like go*gle scholar and other such sites should be free in order to create a brighter tomorrow. Only exceptions to that being things like malware, viruses, worms, Trojans, etcetera, hidden behind a paywall not going open access because most people would just end up damaging their own devices. The idea I had/have for the logo is a playing card of the dual king in a lab coat being hung with an oasis in the background. That, and the card suit being a $, a king of $.
I may keep 1m, that’s way more than what I need to live this life and donate the rest to hospitals and education institutions.
So corrupt officials can fill their pockets?
Better to create those places yourself and remain their director so you can make sure the money goes where it is needed.
Build housing that would be rent-to-own. The only qualification would be paying first month’s rent and a deposit, then if you stay for 15 years you own the place. Price it for minimal profit (5-10%) and build/renovate a new set every year.
Go back to sleep.
Take a day off
