I mean, i might end up playing it a lil too much and it might get in the way of the tasks i should be doing. But eventually I'll either finish it or get bored so even if that does happen it won't be the world.
As someone who is currently working at a company that has no problems of cash flow yet is still penny pinching, often on things that would actively save costs after an initial serious investment, yes, I would not change and most probably burn through that money to do positive things for people.
I also have a tendency to look as how things might happen down the road, so time is not really that much of a concern for me.
With so much money at my discretion, I can say with a fair degree of confidence I'd been putting money into projects amd initiatives I would most probably never benefit from their results.
But would I be popular or well liked in that endeavour? I seriously doubt.
No. I believe that adage about absolute power corrupting absolutely. I don't trust myself or any other single person with that kind of money.
Egotistical altruism.... Yes.
The better that we can make everybody else's life, the better your own life becomes in return.
I'd maybe be better, but I'd still have a kickass life.
