Easily spend 30 million in 5 days or less


Following all the guidelines:

Day 1:
Go to the casino, bet 1.5 million on a single game. Chances are very good you will lose.

Then go to a local charity and donate 1.5 million.

This leaves only 27 million to worry about.

For day 1 through day 4, you will hire The Eagles for private shows at small venues of your choice. You won't have to pay for the venues because after the performances, it will hit the media and those clubs / bars will see business increase. BTW, The Eagles charge 6 million dollars for a private booking.

After 4 days of shows, you just spent 24 million on them. Are you getting your money's worth? Yes, because that's their going rate and you sit through the hour each night they perform. Even if you don't like The Eagles, it's a great way to dump the money and all within the guidelines. Plus, even though those guys are jackasses, there is no way in hell they can refuse 24 million for 4 hours of work. You could even call the shots on what songs make the set-list.

Last day, you have 3 million left. As it turns out, you can hire Metallica for 1.5 million for a personal show. Again, go to a club, book them to do two shows that day. The first show is entirely comprised of their cover songs from the old days. The second show is original material from the first 4 albums, another set-list of your choosing.

Boom, 30 million spent, got your money's worth, followed the guidelines. Hello, 300 million.

Its been awhile since ive seen it, but im pretty sure the rules were you cannot give the money away.. meaning charity, with that logic he could just donate all 30 million to charity.

And purchases have to be at value with no assets, meaning if those bands are not making that much per show normally he cannot just give them all of his money for private shows.

5 days? How about 5 seconds?

Simply pay $30,000,000 for any service that leaves you with nothing afterwards.

Stop any stranger on the street and pay them $30,000,000 for shaking your hand.

You must receive value for any services rendered.

Retarded suggestion.

$30 million blowjob. I bet a supermodel would deepthroat for that.

that seems to be the only way of doing it legally.just say you're the biggest eagles/metalica fan and you always wanted to do this.you can buy any type of product only services.

Gonna be tough to do now that Glen Frey is gone.

I'm not sure if they would all get together again for any amount of money.

Damn, I'm good.

the eagles have officially split up for good since glenn frey died

I'm sorry, but you absolutely failed to account for inflation which amounts to $66,226,415 you have to spend (2014 vs 1985 dollars) and hence you need more days.
