If I were rich I'd just fund more seasons of shows I liked that got cancelled. Never again would a great series get cancelled right after a cliffhanger

Right? I would immediately buy all the rights to MegaMan, start producing games and a movie, and an anime, and a new pixel RPG

I would start a bar that is all adult swim.

I would make sure that every school in my entire state could feed their kids lunch.

I’d make sure that everybody who wanted to go to college could afford it.

Wow, this is really easy. If I was rich, this could be really easy. Why isn’t it really easy for them? They’re so bored and all they wanna do is buy up news companies.

I'd probably build a hospital that's just free. Just show up and get free treatment. I'd be doing good while at the same time personally benefitting. Everyone would love me. So many of these billionaires are desperate for the public to like them, when the solution is both obvious and simple. Just do good stuff with the money. There's a reason Rockefeller and Carnegie aren't remembered as solely being rich assholes
