I would've thought that this could be quite simple.

  • A few flights in a private jet, or long-term purchasing for the whole month to take you wherever you want.
  • Several $250k-500k cars in each location to take you wherever you want
  • A private show from a famous band can set you back a few million. Do this each day.
  • Go to Vegas and get in a pissing content with some rich cunt where you send expensive drinks to each others table, until one folds. That'll be a few million each night.
  • Trump spent a ton on sex, so high class hookers?
  • A few ads across multiple providers to promote something
  • Prize fights can be set up quickly, and have the best in combat sports ready in 30 days. Offer $1m per division for the winner, and do it across maybe 4-5 sports, pay for TV and streaming, set up a venue, and you'll probably blow through it all.

I would spend all 100M to get ads put up all over the country of people who have wronged me and my loved ones. They'll just be like really awful pictures of them with really petty captions like "doesn't help carry suitcases", "laughed at a disabled person", "sneezed too loud that one time". That'll show them.

Single use luxury cars is my favorite one

Buy a/some 737 and start an airline. It's easy to spend $100m.

The lead times on aircraft manufacturing is measured in years though. It's so bad that in many cases airlines will lease aircraft from other airlines to the point that it's all meaningless

You can still spend the required money even if the product isn't delivered.

Honestly modern finance brings us to a point where you really have to ask what the criteria is to actually "spend" the money, given how many businesses that exist purely moving numbers around on spreadsheets and not actually doing anything tangible in the real world
