25 Trillion Dollars

[Pluto100]

What would you do with 25 trillion dollars? Here is what I would do with that.

With 25 trillion dollars, I would do this:

1. Start a space tourism company.

2. Fund Mars-One

3. Start an asteroid mining company OR invest in Planetary Resources.

4. Build a Moon colony.

5. Drop food aid into poor countries.

6. Build massive solar arrays around the sun and beam back the energy.

7. Try to pay off America\'s debt.

8. Help the Earth in any way possible.

9. Fund any research into anything that will benifit Humanity.

10. Fund SETI.

11. Fund Indie game companies. (Ex. Squad.)

12. Start my own game company.

13. Start my own nation.

14. Start Mars colonies.

15. Earth defence system.

16. Asteroid colony ships.

17. Fund UN.

18. Try to unite the world as one.

19. Donate to charity.

20. Commercial space stations.

21. Build factories on the Moon.

22. Try to stop pollution.

23. Try to bribe congressmen so that I have control over the USA. (Ex. Change our economic policies, change our diplomatic view, ect.)

24. Build a massive orbital shipyard.

25. Build a massive floating airport.

26. Buy a suit that can take bullets. (NO ASSINATIONS!!!!)

27. A powerful and nice computer.

(Credit to those who put some of these ideas up.)

What would you do with 25 trillion dollars? I have an attachment on what I would do with it.

Colonize Mars

[Pluto100]

Colonize Mars

Cool!

[Herpderpsslerps]

By myself a nice bit of land, get a nice firearm collection, including a bunch of NFA class 3 firearms. Spend an ungodly sum of it on ammo, then with the rest that isn\'t required for me to life, I\'d put the rest into NASA specifically earmarked for its next manned rocket program.

[Pluto100]

That\'s cool!

[Imandreas]

Buy out the US, then fix the crisis we have. Use the remainder to fund multiple corporate space companies, and hopefully set up routine missions to mars and a special moon landing to show conspiracy theorists that they were wrong.

[Endeavour]

Build the Enterprise!

[Pluto100]

Wow! I hope that the US will go to Mars soon :/.

[Radion]

You do realize that it would take much more than 25 trillion dollars to buy, let alone fix, the US.

Anyway, to mine -

I would use 5 trillion to establish buy a little pacific island and build my underwater mansion right next to it, with a wing directly under the island, and a few on top. Then, I\'d use another 5 trillion to establish a massive floating airport and stock it with every aircraft I can buy, military or otherwise. With 10 trillion, I\'d build myself a few rockets for whenever I want to go to space, or the Moon, hehe. I\'ll probably put a little station just for me in space. I would then keep 3 trillion for various upkeep costs and just living fancily, then give the 2 trillion off to charities across the globe.

Ehm, Tropico is just a game dood

[Kreuzung]

I\'ll try to get anything that can do harm under my control for a more peaceful world.

(This doesn\'t mean that I\'d just buy all weapon manufacturers then all weapons, I\'d do it far more intelligent).

[Imandreas]

Damn, new plan then.

Wait until next year for large rockets, buy 20 Falcon Heavy rockets. Wait a few years, buy some Bigelow inflatable habitat modules. Convert some to raise enough food, and live in space. Get a nice computer and extra solar panels, and donate the rest for manned missions to mars.

[Kryten]

(This doesn\'t mean that I\'d just buy all weapon manufacturers then all weapons, I\'d do it far more intelligent).

You probably could do that...

Lockheed\'s the world\'s biggest weapons manufacturer, and their total worth is barely a third of a trillion dollars.

[Monkthespy]

Peace. And obviously charity! But, if I were to be greedy...

Of course a small luxurious spaceplane that I would hire pilots for while I do my favorite orbit around the Mun...a mansion...and charity.

[Capt'n Skunky]

You don\'t need to buy the whole country, just bribe every congresscritter. That would be more than enough to buy every single one of them allowing you absolute control.

Arrr!

I find this suspicious because you know..

[Kreuzung]

OK, I\'d buy Lockheed, EADS, Boeing, and all other concerns, use their facilities to research in things that could minimize conflicts on the world. After that, the others are almost collapsed anyway, I just have to get them earlier to keep the jobs.

I know a minimum of weapons is always required, and that I can\'t rule the world alone without conflicts.

[Radion]

Hmm... with the 20 trillion I could give every person on the planet 3 thousand dollars. Would that be enough to buy their allegiance to the new world emperor?

[Kryten]

I find this suspicious because you know..

Everybody and their dog knows America\'s the best democracy money can buy.

Seriously, most people don\'t seem to realise how much this is. To put it into perspective, there only are 800 billion dollars in circulation. That\'s right, this means that you have 97% of the worlds dollar supply; or something like 200 Apollo programs worth.

[Kreuzung]

Seems rather problematic. Some people have a mind and others far more than 3k.

[Pluto100]

Wow! Amazing plans everybody! I have to change my plan now!

[flying_chair]

Buy more 40k.

[iamwearingpants]

Twenty Five triiilion dollars... Whahaa.. WHahahaha! WHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Okay, okay, here\'s my plan!

1.) Purchase world governments

2.) Revamp all the economy and make a benevolent dictatorship, starring me!

3.) Use the moneys wisely and make a colony on all the suitable planets/moons (Mars, Moon, Titan, Europa.... ect.) plus start asteroid mining

4.) Build a space empire using continuing income from thriving world economies

5.) HAPPINESS FOR ALL

[RC1062]

My plan would be boring... Put the money somewhere safe and live my life normally, only dipping into it when I\'m short...

[Pluto100]

Cool Ideas!
