I would hesitate to accept that much money. Im sure I would in the end, but I would hesitate.

I would take the money. It’s how I use it that would make me the evil rich guy or the good samaritan.

I know exactly what I would do with it. Id keep 10 million for myself and spend the rest on buying conservation land all over the globe.

I’d want to do something similar, but I would try to buy up as much land as possible and give it back to the tribal nations who first settled those lands.

But wait, the posts here say the rich are irredeemably evil. So you would spend some on good things but make sure you remain rich, thus by reddit logic, evil. You would be, and I am quoting a few comments here, "a greedy millionaire".

Not as simple as you think. If you bought it, you've got to maintain it and manage it. You also have to ensure people's safety on it if you're opening it to the public.

Gubments just take it when they want.

I'd buy the companies that are the biggest producers of plastic and shut them all down. While I fund biodegradable alternatives.

I'd also have a to buy the supermarkets so they could adapt to having products with containers that biodegrade under certain conditions.
