What to do with some spare change

So some of my carry from a fund a few years ago paid out, it's somewhere in the low 7 figures range. Since I'm not strapped for cash (obviously), what should I do with it?

1. All in on some shitcoin like Shibu Inu and hope it 500x.

 

2. Buy out a company valued in the 10-15mm range with some leverage, dedicate some time each week to operating and overseeing it.

3. Donate it steadily over a few years to a hypertarget (WHYD) and build a rapport with adcom so my kids can get accepted in a decade or so.

I'm glad you're OK, but it's not obvious at all. You look like you need it. You look poor. And you're planning on having stupid kids.

Buy a 7 figure boat and name it “Spare Change.”

My friend knew this shit marketing guy that worked at one, they had a local event and she brought some of my friends and I along, but it was so fucking boring and everyone there was bland as hell.
