The Brewster’s Millions genie
Great movie. In this case, at end of this one you can have assets and apparently also tell your friends what you’re up to.
Buy a supreme Court justice with the first 100M, then the rest of the court with the other Billion.
You’re overpaying, justices aren’t that pricey
Yea, once you’ve bought all of the SC ig you could spend the remaining 99 million on Congress or something
Brewsters millions would be so easy in 2024. Just train some AI.
The IRS would finally get their money back lol
YOU DIDN’T SAY AZURE, RACKSPACE, OR OVH!
I’m gonna buy 100 million tacos. That should provide adequate sustenance for the doctor who marathon.
Starting a production line for something like UAV drones seems doable. I don’t understand how much 100kk is (and I assume most lemmings too), but I think like there are a lot of ways to make it more expensive. If the baseline is constructing an existing model from imported components, then customizing it, printing or casting conponents oneself, doing R&D - everything can change the price.
Easy, buy up a bunch of land for conservation
Buy $20 for $100 million. If you can “buy” nft’s then Idk why you can’t buy something with less value.
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.
Lol That’s damn good.
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.
…fair 😁
The $20 bill has a unique serial number just like the nft.
It’s even better because no one else can have that same bill at the same time.
There are some recent $1 notes where the same serial was issued twice.

Still 2 different bills.
i believe the IRS would consider this a gift.
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.
yeah, usually closing time is just buffer time for people to get their affairs in order, move out, inspections, lawyer stuff, etc. If you offer straight up cash and pay a boatload to the lawyers to get the paperwork done up ASAP, you can close likely within a couple weeks
In “Bewster’s Millions” he also had to have nothing of value at the end.
So yes that is a good method for this formula of the question.
I’ll buy $100m worth of stocks from all the public companies every month.
For a genie it may sound like gambling.
genie just doesn’t know how to read fundamentals
I’m just not sure if making an ancient wishmaster aware of stock trading is a good idea.
I call it investing if I can reason the reaons for specific stocks.
Genie: Listen here you little shit
Stocks are liquid enough that the genie may not consider it “spending”. You could easily buy it, and then just as easily dump it. The move is also big enough that you’ll single handedly move the market in the process.
No gambling
I still “bought” the stocks besides almost everything we buy is a gamble anyways.
I would’ve thought that this could be quite simple.
- A few flights in a private jet, or long-term purchasing for the whole month to take you wherever you want.
- Several $250k-500k cars in each location to take you wherever you want
- A private show from a famous band can set you back a few million. Do this each day.
- Go to Vegas and get in a pissing content with some rich cunt where you send expensive drinks to each others table, until one folds. That’ll be a few million each night.
- Trump spent a ton on sex, so high class hookers?
- A few ads across multiple providers to promote something
- Prize fights can be set up quickly, and have the best in combat sports ready in 30 days. Offer $1m per division for the winner, and do it across maybe 4-5 sports, pay for TV and streaming, set up a venue, and you’ll probably blow through it all.
Single use luxury cars is my favorite one
Buy a/some 737 and start an airline. It’s easy to spend $100m.
The lead times on aircraft manufacturing is measured in years though. It’s so bad that in many cases airlines will lease aircraft from other airlines to the point that it’s all meaningless
You can still spend the required money even if the product isn’t delivered.
Honestly modern finance brings us to a point where you really have to ask what the criteria is to actually “spend” the money, given how many businesses that exist purely moving numbers around on spreadsheets and not actually doing anything tangible in the real world
I would spend all 100M to get ads put up all over the country of people who have wronged me and my loved ones. They’ll just be like really awful pictures of them with really petty captions like “doesn’t help carry suitcases”, “laughed at a disabled person”, “sneezed too loud that one time”. That’ll show them.
I feel like I could easily spend that in microtransactions on some scummy mobile game.
Diablo Immortal entered the chat.
“Do you guys not have-”
“ohh dont worry, i’ve got ALL the phones”
Just buy some commercial property, island, luxury house that is worth 100M, it can be done in less then a week. 3 weeks left to think and organize how to spend 1 billion in 1 day.
No you’re getting somewhere. Buy 1B in property put it in a company. Then use that as a mortgage to get a higher loan to buy some more. This way you can in addition avoid paying taxes.
Treasury bonds here I come
Investments are probably covered under “gambling”.
Quickie marriage with a $100 million prenup
Then rail the maid of honor on the wedding cake table. Time’s a wasting!
Oh, no no no. For that much monet, you find out why he’s called the best man
What do you know, my brother just opened up an art auction house.
