Save

You are suddenly rich beyond your wildest dreams. One catch - no one else can find out. How do you make the most of your money?

If anyone finds out, aside from the mysterious benefactor, you lose all of it. He or she has also told you that charity donations will result in the same fate.

It's in a secret magic bank account. Suppliers can see that you're spending money, but are not allowed to know the extent of your situation.

What do you do with the cash?

    I would probably just save it in case of an emergency, and spend a bit of it at a time so no one would notice. Probably get a few computer parts and stuff, maybe pretend to have a job that way no one is suspicious.

    What a jerk this guy is? Do you know how hard this would be? And no charity donations, how does that work?

    1. Create a New Mexico corporation, with a business plan and everything. All money can be funneled through it without knowing whose it is. Begin pushing money through this organization, making all large purchases under this name.

    2. Start a small business, hiring myself as the only employee, maintain a liveable income that people would believe. Start buying houses and land, as well as cars and airline tickets, in the name of the corporation.

    3. Slowly increase my income in the company, until I'm name President and CEO, buying stock in all kinds of places. Once the company has attained $100,000,000 income, I start liquidating the company, and rout all cash into my own name. Buy an island in the South Pacific, and never go back to the secret magic bank account again.

    Build an underground lair, invite people from all over the world and make them sign NDA's. Tell them its a research experiment on how to best have fun in an underground lair should the end of the world happen. Make this into a 5 year experiment and just party it up like its 1999.

    Anonymous online banking and trading. The initial income provides the seed money and the proceeds go into a separate account. I never touch the initial investment to pay for anything, I only ever use it for anonymous investment.

    Slowly buy myself nicer and nicer things. Say I have a sugar daddy paying for all my shit. Then buy myself a fake persona+face person to pretend to have all my wealth. Buy out companies all in Fake Rich Guy's name.. Invest is a shit ton of things and formulate a living situation off the profits.

    Then when all is said and done, get "divorce" from Fake Rich Guy, let him take a huge chunk of money and shit. And then I can free from that magic bank account bull.

    That thing could probably make the economy collapse.

      Sorry, but anyone investigating your sugar daddy would see he's not rich.

        I have no one close enough in my life to want to "investigate" a fake sugar daddy, let alone have the means to do it.

        And by the time I'm done with him, he would be rich.

        win/win

    I would pose as an extremely successful painter, then use my money as I please. Everyone will assume it's due to my infamous artwork.

      I like your style.

        I think it's a little derivative. TBH, I'm surprised it sells for so much.

          You know what the funny part is? I totally agree, but these silly commoners continue to pay for it.

    I suck at lying so pretending to having a job that pays me really good is out of the question. I honestly don't know how I'd manage to pull a "hey gotta avoid letting people know that I'm balls deep rich!" thing. I'd probably save it, and spend it online. I'd start a Manga/Anime collection and buy lot's of waifu figurines. Typical weaboo shit, you know? I'll probably have all the BabyMetal merchandise + dvd's + cd's and send some cash to my parents. But hey, this isn't real, and it's not happening, right?

      Depends if someone comes up with the right answer.

    I'm assuming this donation is legal, the donator just has a really weird set of rules he abides by in life. If this is the case, I wouldn't chabge my lifestyle at all for while, like 5 years, I would continue to work hard and spend according to my income bracket I am currently in. However during this time, I would put all my own earned money away in investments while using the donated money to pay for everything. After my own earned money reaches a point where I can live comfortably off the interest (Putting away an entire salary a month can add up quickly if you have a decent job) I would start spending a little more casually. If it reaches a point where the donar removes gge money, I've still set myself really nicely if not for life. :)

    I would pretend I'm a highest class hooker and pay myself a couple thousand to spend a night by myself in awesome hotel spas now and then. The room would be paid by the benefactor. I would dress up to go in and out the room but my bag would have my slummy pjs and snacks :) I would spend a while jumping on the bed making sex noises before ordering room service and watching trashy Netflix shows while munching skittles.

    anyone inquiring about my service can be told I'm on a retainer or already booked or too expensive. Lol
