    Same. I’d probably build a giant dog park, giant playground for kids, lots of natural trails, etc. make it all free.

    Build shelters for anyone to use, garages where people could work on their cars safely and out of the elements, bike repair stations, things like that.

    Farmers markets with real prices, completely remove all investors and profit hell, just back to basics. Healthcare too.

    Fuck a super yacht. Tells you how selfish people are, completely unaware how they got where they are.

    They could spend 10k/day and never spend all their money, not even a dent. Just selfish pricks. Bring the guillotine.

      My friends and I have this imaginary scenario of funny things we could do with lots of money. A few that come to mind:

      • buy all the properties around gated community/HOA entrances and exits. build low income housing.
      • create an organization that intentionally donates to horrible causes on the condition you can say they accepted the money even if they return it. use the logo and organization name as a canary to warn everyone at a glance something is shady.
      • start an online youtube-like platform that shares the ways the fuck you money is being used hilariously. allow reposts to other platforms like youtube, but never take down our own shit, making any of their attempts to censor it self harming.

      I think I’m going to start referring to this scenario as #withGabeNewellsmoney
