What would you do as a billionaire?

you don't need hookers when you got money unless you're really ugly.

That's bad news for me :smx8:

Start a company only a billionaire could start, think about all the possibility's!

No such thing.

J.P. Morgan was not a billionaire when he founded his namesake company. Neither was Bill Gates, Richard Branson, John D. Rockefeller, or the people who created the East India Company. All founded empires known the world over, without a billion dollars.

Even space tourism companies were not founded by billionaires (with the exception of the one that Jeff Bezos is funding)

Business aside, I like him as a person, and feel his cause is justified.

I'm talking about things like building a rocket ship like elon musk, not a computer startup or a record company startup.

Maybe undertake the first production flying car! Something crazy

Well after about 20 million dollars my life wouldn't change all that much with a billion dollars lol. I'll give 20 million to each member of my immediate family.

I would set myself as a pop icon too... if I haven't done that already. I don't need a billionaire dollars to do that.

I would set charity funds for people who need plastic surgery; acid-victims (I have a soft spot for these people), extreme injuries, transgender people, or people who just plain need plastic surgery because they are born very unattractive. I would set up living centers for the homeless; disabilities, youth up to 24, families who really need it and showed prior employment, veterans, battered women/men. I'll fund the cure to aging as well.

add 30 billion dollars
and I'll create my own country

I try to build up Africa, one stone at a time. Make it flourish.

With the help of many great workers and thinkers, of course.

I would write, direct and personally star a movie called "The Way of the Warrior", it would be an epic story of somebody who started with nothing, and got it all.
Then I would record rap-videos with 50 Cent in my big house in Malibu where I could show off my expensive jewelery and cars.

After that it wouldn't be so much more to do except F*cking lots of beautiful women, tour the world doing concerts of my crappy music
and create more motionpictures.

How long does it take to squander $1 billion? Apparently, it only takes a year to squander $1 million. Will it then take 1000 years to squander $1 billion?

I am up for the experiment. I bet I can spend a billion rather quickly. Most likely a few months.
