Easy, buy up a bunch of land for conservation
It’s even better because no one else can have that same bill at the same time.
If you can “buy” nft’s then Idk why you can’t buy something with less value.
I’ll tell you why: because there’s nothing with less value than an nft.
I just remember the day, as a software dev with a solid understanding of Blockchain, my older dev neighbor started explaining how NFTs worked
I thought he was confused or stupid or something.
“Wait, so like you have these super rare images, proof you own it on a Blockchain, and a link to the place they’re all publicly hosted?”
Him: “Yep”
“And the only use for these right now is as a profile picture?”
Him: Shrug, “yeah, people use them for discord and stuff”
“But… Couldn’t you just download the image and use it anyways?”
Him: “Yeah, it’s all publicly hosted”
And it was about then my brain locked up. I did multiple hours of research later, sure I had to be missing something
You can buy medical debt, that has lots negative of value to the indebted.
Property can take a while to close — offer to title in under 30 days is on the quick side.
Of course, you could probably close very fast if you offered 100M cash on a 10M property…
If you’re buying vacant land and paying cash, you can close really quickly as there’s nothing in need of inspection, and loan processing times aren’t a factor… I have a buddy who just purchased 100+ acres of vacant land from a logging company. He paid cash and was able to close in just a few weeks.
Sent this to my friend at AWS and he said it was already all-over their internal Memes Slack channel. At least their engineers and project managers are in on the joke. 😁
Treasury bonds here I come
Buy a few houses? How long does that take if You have cash?
It’s taking the premise of Brewster’s Millions, which required that he not only spend the money, but that he has to have nothing left at the end, including assets. So, buying a house doesn’t work because you still own the house.
Obviously there are still plenty of ways to drop millions on stuff without having anything to show for it. Hell, it’s probably easier now than ever before. Just become a whale for a mobile game and you’re there.

I’d rather literally burn all that cash
Well if taking the rules literally, that’s allowed too!
As long as you resist whatever urge you might have to throw out the ashes before you get the billion, you’re not throwing them away!
Mobile game, uhg! Think of the services: a month’s worth of the best eats: 90 meals from the world’s 100 most famous chefs, each flown in to serve you. (Presumably 10% would decline even $1m for a single meal.) Concerts from semi-famous bands every three nights. Boom, $100m spent!
Mobile games are easier and funnier though 😉
