That money makes you the richest human. Elon is #2 at $246B.

a. Would you keep it in order to maintain your #1 Richest status.
b. Not enough and attempt to make more by investing
c. Build largest yacht, biggest mansion, own fleet of jets, etc.
d. Start your own space travel company
e. Run for president
f. Give it all or most away for charitable causes
g. Buy politicians to control country
h. Something else

For me:
I'd buy LucasArts Star Wars from Disney!!!

$80 billion influencing impoverished countries where that money could make a dramatic difference for most people.

$80 billion making changes in the U.S.. I like how old philanthropists spent their money building infrastructure like museums, libraries, parks and zoos.

I'll buy Twitter from Elon, too. You're welcome!

Give almost all of it away, one way or another. Put it in a charitable foundation, make some personally motivated bequests, and devote the bulk of it to preserving environmentally sensitive areas and building low-income housing in the US.

Maybe buy enough politicians to get Universal Healthcare passed, too.
