    I’d just spend the next 24 hours moving money from that account to other accounts and withdrawing as much cash as I can, so I can continue to have more money than I could ever spend in a life time after the 24 hours.

    I’d want to buy every mega-corporation just to watch the top 1% of the 1% squirm, but I would probably just buy a castle and hide away from humanity for a while.

    I would pay off my house and my friends&family’s houses, i would buy us all new cars, i would order a bunch of car parts, i would spend a shitload of money at a few local food joints, i would pay for lawncare and housecleaning up front for as far ahead as i could, i would max my retirement accounts for this year, I’m sure i could come up with more if i had any time left.

    However the last thing i would do is go buy thousands and thousands of lottery tickets.

    • Assuming you buy enough properties, you could rent them for little more than maintenance cost and still make enough to live on. You’d be doing all your renters favors while also driving down rent in that area. This is actually a pretty good idea for philanthropy.

      You’d probably also drive down property values for the local home owners, but fuck those bourgeoisie pricks anyway.

    Immediately pay off my student loans, buy a new car in cash, and pull out a few mill in cash to start the process to buy a few homes. Small one for my brother, a comfy one for my mom and one with a nice yard for myself closer to work.

    I’d buy a bunch of hookers and blow. We’d have a swell party with the drugs, then I’d pay the hookers bills so they could have a normal life if they wanted.

    Buy as many banks as possible, then gift every account with $1b dollars. Buy the banks at 500% above any reasonable asking price. Or even unreasonable asking prices. It doesn’t matter. Then buy as many companies as possible, same deal.

    Then buy all the houses/land possible. Finally, give as much of it away as possible.

    And if you do it all fast enough, no one would catch on to how fucked you just made the world economy. Which is the good by to capitalism.

      Not possible because the price will rise as you buy. Your broker will not even accept a deposit of “infinity dollars”. None of this is possible because moving large amounts of money doesn’t happen that quickly, for good reason.

        Yes, well OP also doesn’t say that there will be no consequences. I feel like everyone’s answers are just ignoring the tax burden that would result from realizing this income.

      I imagine the SEC would shut you down once your owned to many competing interests, so you would have to limit your companies to avoid breaking securities laws.

    A complete medical check, a solid insurance and all according procedures for all. I won’t be able to enjoy any wealth if I’m and my crowd are not healthy. And if there’s no workarounds to keep these money, I’d prefer that.

    Almost nobody in this thread is aware of the limitations that 24h pose.

    Forget real estate needs weeks, even cash. Anything bigger than 10k probably needs a few days notice. I have like a 600 euros a day limit on my cards.

    Buying bitcoin could be a good idea, lottery tickets or gold.

      Also I’m surprised nobody has commented to do a wire transfer into a business account which has less limitations than a simple human mortal account.

      You need to transfer money into something you can liquidate in the future.

        Depends on the broker, usually you have to transfer the money in advance…

        If you can buy them directly from your bank that would be a great strategy :)

      Now I am legitimately wondering how much money it would take to have Clarence Thomas dress in a clown suit and admit that he’s been a naughty boy.

      Like, three RVs maybe?
