$400 million would allow me to build a tiny house completely off grid with all the equipment I'd need to grow vegetables in a remote location for the rest of my life... The other $398 would go to helping anyone and everyone.

Misread the amount but leaving up as a reminder of my idiocy.

Sorry, you only get $400 thousand, not $400 million.

To be fair, you could do that on 400k if you’re willing to be very frugal and handy.

I mean I know lots of people in the US who survive on 10k a year.
