This is dumb. Just buy 100 million worth of gold. Then even if you lose the bet on a technicality, you still have 100 million in gold.

Yes, I know I'm overthinking this joke about Amazon's ridiculous pricing.

most expensive hoise in seattle on redfin is 25 mil

5 car garage, so fill that up with a rimac nevera, a singer 911, some sort of koenigsegg, some kind of bugatti, and a sensible daily like a turbo gt taycan wagon if they ever make one

a few watches from the insane seven-figure watch brands like richard mille, jacob & co, whoever the fuck else

not even halfway to 100mil and I'm already tired of this thought experiment. yacht and jet i guess

Yeah, exactly. This would have to be a Genie using the "Brewster's Millions" rules, not the ones in the tweet. In that case, they wouldn't be able to own anything bought with the 100M at the end of the month.

I'll buy a server farm and train an LLM. Won't take the whole month.

Just be quick, or you may not have enough money.

I'm going to get the most overpriced ai service I can possibly find to say "gib" over and over and over until it's all gone.

The hobbits are leaving to Isengard!

Fine, Oracle's cloud it is then.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

This genie must've read or watched Brewster's Millions.

someone else's computer*
