If I had Elon Musk's wealth, what could I do with it that would be more fun than overpaying for Twitter and then crashing it's value by 72%?
 

Besides a tiki palace on a private island with a lagoon and an airstrip, I'd build a nuke plant the right way. And I'd buy a distillery in Scotland and a righteous cheese cave.

Amusement park! Water Park! Dinosaur Park!

I would make Tesla come out with a butt ugly truck, call it the Cybertruck and sell it to people who want a truck that looks like a doorstop on wheels.

Three words, hookers and blow!

A car.

A fast car.

Faster than that.

I would take care of every orphan and widow as the OT recommends. And then every veteran, and old person,

Now there you go talking sense again. You know how I hate that.

I'd have an attache with an attache case, who would have on retainer a collection of engineering companies, machine shops, and small foundries ready to build whatever crazed schemes I come up with.

I'd watch all the NFL Wildcard games this season, not just the ones on ABC, NBC, CBS, and Fox.

I'd have a secret underground lair constructed, move there with all my stuff, and leave you creatures to your fate.

Lairs tend to be infested with creatures, though.

dog, cat, bird...OK trees and other plants, too.

Start my own space company. Not in the launcher business, SpaceX is doing great on that. But craft for outside the atmosphere work. Like a space tug that can go from low Earth orbit up to geosync, grapple a satellite, refuel/refurb it and return to LEO. Or, if the satellite is dead, do the deorbit burn, drop it and then return to LEO for refuel and the next mission.

Don't forget the hairless cat...

Will one of those crazed schemes be an amusement park/water park/dinosaur park combo?

Just because you want one. And you get the purple ticket with platinum stripes that takes you to the head of every line.

Buy a lot of Finger Lakes lakefront and not build anything on it.

Set up a smallish committee to find kind people who are struggling financially and give them life-changing amounts of money. No strings. Just give it to them.

Build some good houses with yards and catios and hire some kind homeless people to live in them and take care of homeless cats and dogs. Pay them enough to live comfortably.

Invest in one or more businesses working on developing batteries that can power a house, can be readily moved by one person, and can be recharged by any of various renewable energy methods. Once developed, set up a chain of stores that sells them and that also exchanges ones low on charge for charged ones; delivery available.

I expect I could go on.

Oh yes. Pay somebody skilled in such things to keep me anonymous; so that as far as anybody else knows I'm just one of the recipients of the Mystery Awards. Or maybe one of the Cat/Dog Care awards; some of which could go to people who already had houses, and support them to stay in them.

I recently re-watched Jurassic Park and I don't think so. I'm in on the other two.

Creature-proof lair.

I can't. She posted right below you.
