10 Ridiculously Things People Would Do With $5 Billion

Money can be a powerful tool, allowing us to achieve our dreams and desires. But what happens when someone is given an excessive amount of money and is asked to spend it in the dumbest way possible?

From giant statues of themselves to private islands with volcanoes, people came up with some of the most extravagant and impractical ideas for spending $5 billion.

1. Build a Giant Statue of Themselves

One user said they would construct a 200-foot statue of themselves in the center of a city. They would also hire people to worship the statue and throw rose petals at their feet. This idea screams narcissism, but it’s not surprising that someone with $5 billion to burn would be egotistical enough to make it happen.

2. Cover a Yacht in Gold

Another user said they would purchase a yacht and have it entirely covered in gold. It’s hard to say if this is more about flaunting wealth or just trying to create a blinding distraction on the water. Either way, it’s a ridiculous and ostentatious idea.

3. Build a Castle Made Entirely of Ice Cream

One user suggested they would build a castle entirely out of ice cream, including the walls, floors, and furniture. It’s hard to imagine how this would work practically, and the idea of a melting castle made out of frozen dessert sounds like a nightmare for both the builder and the clean-up crew.
