I'd by my own island, stock it with hot naked chicks, and then spend the rest of my life doing absolutely nothing (except the hot chicks of course).

Other than this, I'd give buttloads to Africa.

why?

I read your response to Will, so I will expand. I would hire a bunch of just out of college kids and just out of univeristy people to go over there and make things better. Give them great wages so they'll want to go. I'd make everything good there.

i thought i would chime in here on the africa thing, yeah i'm one of those guys who would try and 'fix' africa, and it seems easy to me:

find a really smart dude who is an expert on economics and politics and all that, pay him enough to get him to do whatever you want, give him a 500 billion a year budget, and tell him to 'fix' africa

40 billion or so to help the world's poor

The rest split between a) reinvestments and b) education, travel, romance and leisure.

I would hire a spin doctor. I would give him most of the money and tell him to distribute it and publicize me and make me look really really good. nothing political so that everyone would love me.

mean while I would be on an island filled with hookers and blow.

Buy up any available commercial airtime to set piles of money on fire, laughing maniacally while wearing nothing but a top hat and monocle.
