What would you do with 100 billion dollars to have the most positive impact on the largest number of people? - eviltoast

My partner and I were discussing this over dinner, our ideas went from buying up land to finance organic farming and distributing it at the lowest price to crashing the financial system to “reset” everybody’s bank account with no possible recovery. Any other ideas?

    It needs to be heavily targeted towards mandatory education, particularly K-12 or equivalents, and have a strong focus on critical thinking, scientific skepticism, technical literacy, entrepreneurialism, and the methods and models of social programming that are commonly used (how to identify, resist and avoid them).

    This will help create generational change which is great for the future, but sadly does nothing to solve the pressing issues we face right now.

      I think education on this level even for adults, especially in ‘third world’ countries, would help alleviate some issues we face today very quickly over the course of a few years.

      Why entrepeneurialism?
