If you had infinite money and resources at your disposal, what would you do with it? I for one, would do a lot of things, ranging from creating archive sites for Deviantart, Pixiv, Twitter, Tumblr, YouTube and other sites, fund scientists, medical professionals and science programs to create vaccines and cures for all forms of cancer, stds, and malaria, and fix America's economy and solve America's electric power problem by opening up 20,000 to 30,000 more nuclear power plants.

I would build a walkable city full of parks and gardens, and solar panels on every roof. I would hire artists and programmers and individuals who are passionate about art and creating, give them a house in the town, a budget that suits their needs, and make big public specialised buildings that provide them with the tools and educators, and let them just create without housing/financial/time-limited burden.

kind of like schools where there's public computer labs and libraries, filming locations, and spaces where you can find others to help with projects (they could probably work at home but I don't want to completely remove the irl social aspects of work environments)

I just wanna see artists create and make more art. I wanna see what kind of games or movies they could make if given the time/recourses

-Buy WBD and fire Zaslav along with anybody who agreed with him and worked to damage animation

-Give a lot of money to several animation studios so they can pay their animators and upgrade the workplace.

-Donate money towards fixing up poorer areas of the world, specifically slums

-Donate money towards several scientific research projects

-Several towns that are basically like what clockedbox described, but for the general public

-Give my family money

-Donate money towards school funding

-Donate money to as many legitimate Lost Media forums in order to make sure they are still able to oporate

-Buy Twitter/X and fix all the problems with bots, bait, and xxx material.

-Pay off Zaslav to NEVER return to the entertainment business for as long as he lives

-Buy some stocks in major companies

-Buy Lost media that is gatekept by people or companies (no I am not talking about Media that is online and accesable, but is sold by people on places like Ebay)

-Probably buy some of my personal wants after I'm done

Now if we get technical and say this includes infinite natural resources, then I am going on a spree of planting trees, putting ores in the ground and caves, and putting oil in the ground. I would then pay off industries that cause a lot of pollution to change their practices.

If this happened, I can imagine “not having something in the budget” would no longer be a reason for something to be scrapped, since you could… just give them extra money.

Honestly I am so poor that I probably just start out buying me own house. Which seems so mundane.

Maybe I would travel a bit and have some money for my family to travel too. I would also really like to stay at Disney's Polynesian or Contemporary. I don't know why I care more about these hotels than the actual park.

I think for investment, I would maybe invest in indie animation projects. I would also like if one of my stories got turned into something, cross my fingers maybe one day.

I would probably donate money to fostercare and homeless youth programs.

I forgot to mention once I buy the Lost Media, I will publish it online in multiple forms and will find a way to make it so that the original owners cannot take it down.

I'd also make an archive of plant seeds, human knowledge, and media (and ways to access them), and send it to a nearby planet further away from the sun. maybe Pluto? it wouldn't need human passengers.

I'd make a few identical replicas and shoot them off randomly into space in various directions to travel for the rest of time, or found by alien life.

an archive that's supposed to outlive humans as a whole

I'd personally want to buy every piece of FLCL merchandise, probably even the rights to it, as well as purchasing a house that has various rooms, one to display my collection of things and another as an art studio. That's all I can think of when it comes to wants, maybe travelling to different countries every now and then or going to Disney World again or just buying a Club 33 membership.

When it comes to things outside of wants however, it gets a bit more wild (remember I have infinite resources here):

Create an animation studio and network that allows creators to fulfill their artistic expression free of network interference, budget constraints, and the fear of cancellation or write-offs, true creative freedom.

Open up an institution (similar to Calarts, Ringling, and SVA) which delves into nothing but the arts, tuition being on the lower end, as well as opening smaller branches of the institution to be offered in more rural areas.

Donate to various charities and organizations, this also applies outside of the United States.

Open a museum dedicated to animation

Realistically I'd go insane. Infinite money wouldn't solve all of my problems but life would quickly become boring and lose all challenge. Of course I'd help people and animals with it but at what point do you give up because you have so much? Sure I could fix my body and ensure the ones I love are happy but I'd also be miserable because my purpose in life would lose meaning. I want to help and form bonds but if I can just give them stuff to feel better, chances of being used would increase. Think of Dr. Zalost from Courage. Most of us would end up like that.

I'm nothing but a mass of concrete yet my heart is calling my name
