    Why go out ? I would buy the place and stay there so everyone can fuck off.

        If I get bored I go to sleep. Sleep all year, free food, can do pushups, learn to whistle, yoga training, imagine you have a piano and practice piano in mind, play chess in mind, invent fucking game rpg story and characters. That’s from top of my head, not sure if I can manage to do this in a year, need more time.

    Practice meditation for a year and have enough money to actually make a difference in this world after. Sounds ambitious but I think I’d have to give it a shot.

    I’d do it no matter how much it would mess me up, and all that money, except enough to buy a nice house in my city, would be going towards an endowment for a trans charity. Its mission would be multi-faceted, providing direct supports for trans people alongside fighting legal battles. Hopefully that would nullify the contributions of people like J.K. Rowling.

    Would definitely do it*.

    • If the assumed necessities are met (lights don’t even need to go off & the water can be warm).

    The option to spend a day and take the 82m if downscaling is an option is wrong; 4Billion for 50days is the deal. Like surely you had a worst 2months and didn’t get to do the following afterwards: set aside 1B to meet your needs and the needs of most people you know without working for a day of the rest of your life, 1B for projects that cannot fail (cushioned by the mountain of money or pile of gold), and 2B for any cause you believe in (go nuts: make a mini utopia, a nationwide dystopia, preserve the status que, or risk it and go after terrible people who would have never felt justice otherwise).

    I like that Lemmy’s first thought is pro-rated payments, and yes, it really does show how much money 30 billion is when you can make millions in an hour. My first thought was, I think I could actually pull out off for the full year.

    Most people need some kind of social interaction, including folks with conditions that make that hard. I’m probably not an exception to that but I have learned ways to pass full days of time just story developing and singing and such. Creating characters also helps ward the loneliness, although I think the hardest part is being unable to actually write anything down. I could easily do a year if I had enough paper and a way to draw or write.
