Without question, I would go more into crypto. The tatoo fad has been such a huge thing in the states ( and other places in the world ). I think investing in the field of tatoo removal would be a safe bet - LOL

You're either learning and moving forward or sitting around and going backwards. Thus, you're either growing, or dying.

Perfectly said, I complitely support the social enterpreneurship which leads in the direction of win win situation for everyone involved and wouldn't be able to hate anyone who is different or "filthy" rich...this is very simple and super important cos of the law of attraction. Our Tesla Sustainable Village project is there to create a blueprint for the better way of living and therefore prove to the masses that we can and deserve better. Thank you for your contributionism, cheers, Damir

Good post. I think people are people. So some of the richest I think are crappy people. Others not so much. I don't like the super rich leveraging against currencies in countries to take tons of money.. like buffet and soros do, not creating anything. Then people like musk, bezos, bronson and gates all built something or things that are great and useful. They are choose to try to be more useful and helpful. But thanks for your thought, I agree for the most part. I have thought about what I might do with that amount of success, though I am not meant for it. I just try my best man

I would invest in battery tech, and alt energy, then blockchains as well of course. Then I like the global satellite internet concept so I would try to make Bronson and Musk work together so we can get it done soon. Who knows that's a lot of money. I would also like to buy up debt like John Oliver did, and forgive it instead of pursue it. There are so many problems in the world. A billion dollars might not go that far unless your also trying to turn it into 2 billion at the same time

I'll keep aside a little for my family and friends. Invest a little. And then some for child education. And all the rest I'll invest in infant, adult and geriatric health care. So the scientists can find cures for all currently incurable diseases.

I like your balanced view. Many of the current billionaires are an asset to the world, but not all.

Gates in particular seems to be an inspiration to use your intelligence to try to direct your wealth to good uses.

Of course it is only "fair" that he should pursue this path, since he was the dude that inflicted Windows on the world.

His penance has to be high

1 Billion dollars... After securing the future of my children and my children's children... I'd start in on everyone else's as well.

Becoming an investor in a wide array of technological startups and established companies would give me the ability to help shape the future for the better.

Good post.

There is no other way other than creating value OR making money work for you OR both to become rich.

What I have found is that MOST people feel fear of LOSING their existing status quo that includes their friends and sob stories that they share over a drink or something...and if one became rich - none of these stories would be true...and this one thing is BIGGEST hurdle than others.

With my RICHES, I WOULD START EDUCATION OF THE REAL KIND (Creating value/belief) FOR THE AMBITIOUS (ONLY)...There is no pride in trying to save everyone, as not all are looking to be saved!

Thanks for the good share!

I think we need to move toward a more sustainable future so I would look to that. Probably with research into new energy sources and definitely ways to reduce/recycle waste as well as more efficient use of global space to solve overcrowding in cities with an emphasis on resolving the homeless crisis.

I also would like to set up a foundation to fund more esoteric studies with less emphasis on ancient dogma and more on expanding the common knowledge base.

Great post and would also like to add a point after reading "Millionaire Fastlane", to get wealthy is to keep creating new things that bring value or invent something :)

"What would you do with $1 billion?" I'd probably "play it safe," lock the principal in a diversified investment, and live off the returns. I don't think I could spend $70 million on myself every year if I tried, so I'm sure there'd be plenty left offer to split between developing new technology and helping those in need. :-)
