    That’s easy, buy all the real estate in an area that’s for sale, scarcity will drive up the value of the properties you have bought. Economics 101.

    – This is sarcasm and is poking fun of wall street buying up all the property to be landlords, the world and economy are much more complicated than this… But, it is a quick way to spend $100m in 30 days

      Takes a long time to close sales like that… Although I suspect paying above market rate for things would help grease the wheels.

    Create a serverless function on alibaba that calls a serverless function on Azure, which calls a serverless function on gcp which calls a serverless function on Oracle cloud which loops it back to alibaba.

    Now stick CloudFlare in between each step of that and we should hit 100M by Tuesday.

    This basically the premise to Richard Pryor’s movie “Brewster’s Millions” except that one of the rules was that you cannot buy or own anything. At the end of the month you must have spent the money and have nothing to show for it.

    The answer is politics. Spend it all on a political campaign.

      That is inherently a gift then, donation? No different that giving it away and morally lesser to giving to the poor. Breaks one of the rules.

        Oh no. The no gifting rule is also in effect. It was his own political campaign.
