Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I couldn’t find the Buy button for “Solve world hunger” so I quit

[–] Colonel_Panic_@eviltoast.org 18 points 13 hours ago

I bought all ~45,000 McDonald's franchises and my head canon is those are all now free food banks for all.

I bought 2000 yachts and ships, those are all mobile medical, food, water supplies for any country or city in need.

I bought like 1 million homes. All are now free housing for anyone that can't afford rent.

I bought a ton of stadiums and aircraft carriers. Those are now the supply hubs for my world hunger and clean water and food for all venture.

And I still had over half my starting money left. So I bought a ton more shit. But realistically I could have funded that humanitarian empire for the next century without even bothering to raise money or get donations.

That's how I justified it.

Oh, and I did buy 2 houses and 2 Lambos, for me, as a treat. But the rest went to humanity.
