I'd buy a mountain and build a nature retreat so friends and family could visit. I'd probably only spend a million or two on it, after the land and off grid infrastructure I'd build it myself, making cabins and gazebos over time. I'd curate the land to be full of fruit bearing trees and make animal friends
Then I'd make more friends and invite people to stay. I'd look for damaged people and offer them a refuge from the world for as long as they want
I'd probably buy a significant amount of silver, yuan, and euros as insurance. The rest I'd hand over to a financial advisor after taking time to find someone I can trust, then I'd try to never think about money again
I'd spend most of my time enjoying a life surrounded by nature and friends who are free to live without worries. Travel occasionally to meet new friends and see more of the world, but mostly I'd just be happy to live freely
