Sent this to my friend at AWS and he said it was already all-over their internal Memes Slack channel. At least their engineers and project managers are in on the joke. 😁
Surely the answer to this is to buy really short term options. Bad case is you lose all the money and get a billion. Good case is that you make even more money.
Crash the dollar by entering the whole amount in the stock market? Or are stocks also considered gambling?
The problem is that it's so much money that you can clear out the inventory of almost anything you would buy while only chewing a few percent off the bankroll. Provided you can close on them in time, buying up some high end houses, or just a whole lot of land, is probably your best bet. Being a cash deal on your end helps move the paperwork faster. They're also durable goods that don't need a warehouse to be stored, and don't need any maintenance for a while.

Then you have to pay to berth it somewhere, and for maintenance because your boat touches salt water. Land will just sit there until you can flip it, though you do have some property taxes and insurance. A handful of acres around Beverly Hills will do it.
Easy. Buy 100 homes in my city. Become a landlord. Barely ask rent so it's technically not gifting. Use my infinite money to maintain the homes so people have affordable decent housing. Profit for all!
I'll pay for college for a large number of people and pay a lawyer to defend my action as not "giving it away."
Easy.
First buy up a bunch of housing east of the California fault line and then with the billion get nuclear missiles that I can use to trigger the fault and push California off creating a new coast line and water front property for a brand new tech center of the world.
If I have any left over I can look at maybe getting a space crystal that rapidly grows in water to create a new island that true foreigners won't be able to step on without hurting themselves.
You got to learn from the best.
