I would donate 1.5 Billion to the Democratic Party, keep 100 million for myself, give 100 million to friends/family, and donate the last 100 million to charities.
You would make us all much, much happier if you would donate the $1.5 billion to the "Let's Dismantle The Two Party Platform And Fix This Country" foundation that I would gladly run for you.
I'd spend every cent researching and implementing a way to coat EBT cards with a lethal poison absorbed through the skin thereby saving the country from its decline into third world marxism.
The ex-CEO of United Healthcare received 1.8 billion in severance pay, so it's not out of the realm of possibility, at least for him, but if suddenly you were in possession on that amount of fiat currency, what would you do? (to coin a phrase by John Quinones).
Start giving it away by investing in businesses and funneling their profits into charities to make them self-perpetuating.

You're welcome America.
Wow. I hope for your sake you never find yourself down and out and in need of some help. America--at least the America I know and love--would not thank you for that.

I'm all for giving to good charities, hate the idea of the government taking and wasting peoples money. Charities are a much better option than welfare, failing programs, etc
I'd pay off my house, then I'd be free to travel the world. I would build a number of all girl boarding schools for disadvantaged girls of the African diaspora. the schools would teach intensive math and science courses, public relations, foreign languages, martial arts and other combat technique. the girls would become an elite group of fem fatales who would infiltrate all sectors of international governments and world corporations. in 100 years, they would be the new elite.
that would be one heck of a party, mind if i join in?
