yes but i would happily spend it all

Yes I would but I would just postpone it. I would blow all that money on everything that would make me happy for the time being — a nice expensive tropical vacation, probably to the Maldives or something, buy a lot of drugs and get super high, spend some days riding horses, buy a 4 wheeler, and a few more things. Then I would end it all when the money was gone. No amount of money can fix the loneliness and emptiness inside of me, and no amount of money will fill my life with love and meaning, so it would be a fun, temporary fix, but not a permanent solution to my deeper problems.

Having infinite money would just make it easier to go overboard with dying in the best way possible. Imagine how good it would feel to ingest like 20 grams of fentanyl. You would die so hard you would accidentally start living in a parallel universe.

i'd put my immediate family (two in my case for now) in a modest house in a nice quiet neighborhood, paid for. i'd put them on a regular predictable monthly income for bills taxes, hoa, yard care and groceries.

Spoiler: petty bs; tldr i'd make a family fund for my extended family who abandoned us

then i'd make a family fund for the damn extended family who didn't give a fck about us. i'd pay some finance person to make some quarterly dividend that all people eligible to have a living so they know i'm the person who would take care of them even if they never would have taken care of me or my parents. i dont want to see their faces. i dont want their apologies. i dont want to buy their guilt. i want them to know i'm shutting the doors on them while still making sure they know i have the funds to take care of them.

then i'd formalize my Last Will and Testament and make sure that no one can fck with my stuff when im gone.

maybe at that point i'd CBT.

but if im still around. i'd reinvest and make indie games. rent a studio, hire people. have yearly stretch goals to donate to charities in big sums. maybe make up cool charity events, "feed the gamers" inititive or something, or boost tech literacy programs in my local area. make cool platformers. make cool weird indie games. i want to work with cool people. i dunno. that's the pipe dream.

im trans so ofc i would
