The real answer has to lie in the definition of “nothing” in the context of what counts as having something to show for your spent money vs not having anything to show for it and succeeding.
It’s most basic form is:
If nothing means no physical products then you can’t buy a jet, but you can donate it all to charities.
You win
---------
So the next level of having nothing at the end may prohibit donations, considering that to be a type of “gifting”
So now you have to spend it on a service. No holding on to goods, no donations.
So you use AWS and set up a bullshit loop of web traffic that produces a 100M$ bill for server usage.
You win.
---------
So now we must ask if the genie considers the service performed to you by AWS to be “something.”
What could we possibly do next?
Set up a charity ourselves and use the 100M as seed capital? Maybe, but if you own it or gain the assets like buildings or something you might lose.
Buy 50M lotto tickets and hope you don’t win? (Powerball is 2$ a piece I think.). Maybe…but that’s risky. That’s like a 1 in 6 or 7 chance to win at that point, plus you’re nearly guaranteed to win snaller prizes which would have to be dealt with.
I think the answer is a boat. A fuckin huge one that’s a little older. This does two things, 1.) its a single object holding all the value. If we can end the month without it, then we win. 2.) it’s easy to get into dangerous and perilous situations in a boat.
Sail that bitch into a hurricane and try to turn around. This runs the risk of failing if the boat lives, but all you gotta do is turn it sideways relative to the huge waves. As long as you genuinely were sailing the ship and not sabotaging it I don’t think it would fall under the “throwing money away” category.
Idk. It’s hard I’ve you get ticky tacky with the definition of nothing. I guess you could just yolo options. Either you’re going to be broke or you’ll have billions of dollars by the end so you win either way? Maybe the boat thing ain’t the answer. Lol I’m gonna leave it anyway.

Where does it say you must have “nothing” at the end? It says “spend”.
Oh no I’ve made a huge mistake…Idk man
