Imagine you have infinite dollars backing you. What's the thing you'd want to pursue just because it's something you'd like to do with your life?

Two chicks at the same time. I figure I could make that happen if I had infinite dollars.

Create an energy efficient system for carbon capture from the atmosphere and the oceans. Something that can be used at the sites for heavy emitters and also generally around the world.
Create a system to collect the captured carbon and bring it to a central site.
Fire that carbon off into interstellar space.
Use the revenue generated from fees from heavy polluters who can't decarbonise effectively (things like steel making, glass works, air travel) to fund low carbon energy projects and storage/distribution systems for developing nations like in sub-saharan Africa and SE Asia.
"fire that carbon off into interstellar space"
You probably would generate more carbon doing that (because of rocket science)
Best thing would be putting it back where it came from -> deep underground -

Large scale: create or take over companies and make them align with my values (good employment conditions & good products basically). Then delegate that work.
I would try to earn money so i dont have to care about my investor/s and ensure i dont crash the economy too much.
After taking enough economy control pressure politics and other firms to follow my values.Low scale: currently i hyperfocus on custom keyboards (absolute noob btw) and thought about creating my own with sliders on the side and knobs and F keys that go beyond 12 and more fancy things

First things first, I'd spend the next five years quietly buying majority shares of major tech companies through proxies and then create a faux investment board that forces these companies to bend to my will.
during those five years I would be collecting as much evidence as possible against all enemies, foreign and domestic, and use it against them as leverage and make them my pawns.
final part of the plan is to apply pressure to world governments to comply or face economic collapse through pressuring licensing and legal redtape for operating businesses across the globe.
my goals are simple
- free the people
- heal the people
- burn out corruption
- abolish capitalism
- free the market
it's far more complex than what I could even begin to describe here, but that's the gist of it.

If coach had only put me in.

Look for a cure for Alzheimer’s/dementia. Once it’s found give the directions to make the cure away to the world for free.
To find it I’d just keep hiring researchers to look for the cure. A world wide research project.

Pay off the debts of all countries in the world thus ushering in an era of peace and co-operation. Also, cocaine and hookers.

Everyone already said the humanitarian ones. I'd live in an off-grid, self-sustaining chalet in a remote mountain location with a wood shop, nice garage for project cars, and high speed internet.

Obviously all the usual stuff like solving hunger, curing disease, ending inequality, fixing climate crisis, etc.
But if we're talking about something just for me... DJing.
Having the time and space to practice mixing vinyl, plus the resources to buy all the records, and better quality equipment.
Having the freedom to do it as a hobby without the pressure of it ever being a job.
Also, I'd buy my football
team, and run them the way I think they should be run. -
Why wouldn't you want to change others lives positively with your life?
I do already, but there were like 15 altruistic answers and no one provided a single actual desire. I appreciate Lemmy’s eternal selflessness, but we can’t even fantasize in a casual conversation without virtue signaling here and it can be a bit tiring sometimes. (Wouldn’t want to be any other place, though)

Well if the money is in paper currency I would burn it to boil water to spin a turbine to generate infinite electricity.

Hire product designers and artists to go to every high school art classroom and ask kids "If you could invent anything in the world, what would it be?" and then draw it for them. So they can get a taste of that feeling that they too have something to contribute to the world. Put the ideas up on a site like kickstarter, with the profits going towards their college education. Nvm, fuck that. I'd pay for college for everybody.
I'd also travel while I could before the planet gets much hotter.
I feel like these are small goals left over from when I was younger bc I can't properly conceive of what a world without scarcity for me and everyone else looks like. I'd start with the housing problem though, bc that's what I'm facing rn.

Best thing would be putting it back where it came from -> deep undergroundInfinite money gives you as many nuclear reactors as you want, then you can make arbitrary amounts of rocket fuel by electrolys of water.
It'd still probably be better to shine LEDs at lots of kelp in bits of the sea where there's not enough natural light for kelp, burn the kelp into charcoal, and bury the charcoal, though.
