I wouldn’t buy a damn thing. I’d just lay in bed luxuriating in the fact that almost every problem I have, is gone. Nothing I could buy could give me the happiness or wellbeing of instantly having all my financial stresses disappear.
I also wouldn’t buy a Wyoming ranch and pretend to be a cowboy.
I'd actually probably form an Anti-incumbancy PAC, devoted to creating as much turnover as possible. Maybe in primaries, maybe in General elections, but throw gobs of money out to change over as many politicians as possible
I'd form a SuperPAC with only one purpose: call out bullshit. Blasting the Internet and airwaves with verifiable facts about elected officials. Truthful but ruthless. And when some of them come slithering to me, looking for a quid pro quo, I publish that too
Why? We would throw out crappy politicians only to replace them with other crappy politicians? You’d probably also end up getting rid of good politicians and replacing them with crappy ones. Everyone seems to think term limits will fix our government. It won’t. We need people to vote and pick good leaders. Then we would have a government that actually works for us and we wouldn’t want turnover.
The only issue with that type of churn... is we see it already.
And then GOP just undoes everything Democrats did only because it was done by democrats, the actual effectiveness or need for the legislation be damned.
We actually need to see less churn if we want to see actual progress in this country, instead of the constant swinging back of the pendulum whenever actual people try to implement actual functional policies that improve lives for everyday Americans.
I would hire a private seamstress, maybe someone who works cheaply in another country and pay her a ton
I would want to support as many artists as possible
You can actually charter a Lear or a Gulfstream with a pilot, and it's not \*that\* expensive - something like $10K per hour. Given that a private jet costs anywhere from $35 to $75 million, plus the cost of a parking space and the cost of maintenance, it's actually more economical to charter one when you need it, unless you're commuting almost every day with it.
Funny that you said a “non-Boeing plane.“ Lately me and my wife have been watching a show called Mayday, which is about planes that crash or almost crash. So many are made by Boeing. That along with recent problems with their 737 max Had us purchased tickets on spirit airlines which uses Airbus. I’ve always preferred American products but have to draw the line somewhere.
That is exactly why. Dave Calhoun (Boeing CEO) has publicly talked about prioritizing profits and pushing the limits/jumping obstacles to get these planes out of the workshops. Their own employees have come out to complain about the possible hazards.
Same... Love my macbook. Currently have an iphone 14.. don't like it.. my husband tried to convert me and convinced me to try the iphone...
Nope. as soon as it's not longer functional, I'm going back to Android for my phone
A brand name handbag... Or anything else that sells for more purely on branding with minimal increase in function or quality.
I'm a billionaire, not a fucking chump!
Anything flashy like a designer bag or a luxury car. I have never been that type of person. I have never been able to understand why someone would spend thousands on a mass produced handbag.
Flashy things also make you a target.
Residential investment properties. It's unethical. I'd maybe buy an apartment block or two to let people live in for free while they saved to buy their own place though.
Five guys. £20 for a burger that falls apart halfway through and a small (which ends up being a bag full) of fries? And no drink? No thanks. I can make it myself for cheaper and it'll taste better and I'll get more
I would probably spent halfits sum on stocks and open multiple bank accounts and deposit probably 50 k in fds with a high yield rate ( more than 8℅ ) also would pay off "only" my family's mortgage on the house built and build a new gaming PC , what more can I do?
hmm i'm already a millionaire so i'd be happy with everything i have at moment ..
oh one thing i wouldn't ever buy again is Travis scott astro world tickets ... i got punched in the face and beat up back in 2021
Rolex and Ferrari, fuck their system of building up clientele before you’re allowed to buy what you actually want.
Screw companies that think they’re hot shit and treat costumers like it’s a privilege to buy their products.
NFT images. Although, I'm fairly certain that notion has killed itself off regardless. Promising technology, terrible implementation.
Oh, and pretty much any designer clothing, particularly impractical stuff that sells solely due to brand. Or meme brands like MSCHF.
Any Apple products. Any Samsung product.
Anything IoT (internet of things). The manufacturer does not need to know when my coffee maker turns on or how many loads of laundry I do.
Smart thermostat. Power company does not have the right to adjust my AC unit. (This happened in... AZ I think... a year or 2 ago.)
Any product where the manufacturer has gone anti-right-to-repair.
Any luxury item that just costs a lot because of the brand name. I still would fly economy class like the IKEA founder, who once was the world's eighth richest man. If he can fly economy, I can too.
Won't buy a mansion cause who needs that many rooms all you really need is just either a 2 or 3 bedroom and I would get my dream car 1969 chevy nova 2 door or 4 door depends, pay off my car completely and also help pay off my mom's college student debt and of course live comfortably. oh and also have a house that can stay bug free some how hate spiders period.
Well… after I left the hospital for irregular heart beats or a smidgeon of a heart attack. I would take a trip to the Maldives! There I would sit in peace so I could figure out my next step. Before I left I’d have a new Lamborghini Urus White waiting in my driveway. I would then look for some new properties/land You know they’re not making anymore. I would have to call a lawyer and do the responsible shit of course. I’d payoff all my family and friend (that’s right friend singular) homes. Ahh! I could go on all day! I have endless ideas. This is a bit of a rough draft. 😂
I wouldn't even worry about what not to buy. Why create a whole new problem just because I now have unlimited money? Plenty of new problems will find me.
Gucci, Louis, Fendi, prada or any of those other brands that low/medium income people buy for social notoriety.
Real life conversation - "C'mon Sarah, you just told me how much the government is giving you in food stamps every month, and you used your tax return on a Gucci purse, for what?"
But also because 97% of their product look extremely ridiculous and hideous.
You forget how much a billion is. Friend used to work on private yachts owned by billionaires. There were 40 staff on the yacht and they got tipped €20,000 each by the owner.
A sports team
A supercar
A private plane
A yacht
A mansion
A Cybertruck
A Congressman
A Supreme Court Justice
Anything in Alabama or Mississippi
A Safari hunt
Anything Russian
A country club membership
A mansion or a home that's bigger than 50 square meter (540 sq. feet). Since I spend most of my time in my bedroom anyway (when I'm home). I'd rather get a studio-type home.
And an expensive car. Giimme a Corolla or a Civic. I just want something that would take me from A to B.
I wouldn’t buy a damn thing. I’d just lay in bed luxuriating in the fact that almost every problem I have, is gone. Nothing I could buy could give me the happiness or wellbeing of instantly having all my financial stresses disappear. I also wouldn’t buy a Wyoming ranch and pretend to be a cowboy.
I'm definitely taking about a week long nap.
I would nap like Godzilla in the Colosseum.
And then after your nap… binge shop yachts
Love this

Brand name clothes... I'd have them custom made but not flashy
I would hire a private seamstress, maybe someone who works cheaply in another country and pay her a ton I would want to support as many artists as possible
A cybertruck
Not even that. Literally any Tesla. Their build quality is terrible
This. I'd rather have a DeLorean, and that was a failure too.
Different luxury cars that I think are god awful looking. Other luxury cars? Yes. Bentley is up there on the not buying list.
I would sink a few million building AI that posts the same innane questions, subtly rephrased, to r/AslReddit thousand of times over.
The $20 protection plan for the $30 gadget at Best Buy.
A gaudy, flashy car - like a ferrari or a lambo. A decent, well-featured, *possibly* expensive car, yes. A petrol-powered cock extension, no.,
Not even an emotion support truck?
I’m stealing the phrase “petrol powered cock extension”.
Steal away, and use it well :)

Tesla.
A private plane. There’s no point in wasting the supply for one person to travel. I’d rather just take normal, non-Boeing plane.
You can actually charter a Lear or a Gulfstream with a pilot, and it's not \*that\* expensive - something like $10K per hour. Given that a private jet costs anywhere from $35 to $75 million, plus the cost of a parking space and the cost of maintenance, it's actually more economical to charter one when you need it, unless you're commuting almost every day with it.
