Run for office on the platform that I don't want you to vote for me. Hey, it worked for Brewster in the movie.

1. Pay Carly Simon $50,000 to tell me who the song You're So Vain is about (as Dick Ebersol did when he won the auction)
2. Reveal to the world who the song You're So Vain is about
3. Let Carly Simon sue me and settle out of court for $29,500,000

Hire a bodyguard.
Go to an expensive restaurant, pay the maitre d' to give me a table.
Find a public pool, and bribe the manager to kick everyone out.
Pay a kid to kiss my feet.
Have a belt made.

Great movie...
I don't recall but if you win gambling does that get added to the amount you have to dispose of? Hopefully I lose in that case.
5% to charity, travel extensively, expensive moves, hire a huge staff with inflated salaries, do the whole stamp mailing deal, buy rare baseball cards and have kids put them in their bike spokes, smoke insanely expensive cigars, drink amazing expensive booze, and rent penthouses in the most expensive locales in the world during my travels.

Great movie and a fun thread. Of course I'd take the challenge. It's easy to lose a ton of money running a super fed. I'd set up running a few weeks in a row at some super expensive place at short notice since that would cost even more and I'd fly top talent in from all over the world. I'd pay them a fortune too.

Travel the world, exclusively using private planes. All ground transportation will be done by the most expensive limos in town. I'd stay in only the most expensive rental properties in town be it private or hotel. Eating the costliest dishes and desserts at the most expensive restaurant. Buy things that lose its value at certain actions (like the stamps in the movie.)

Buy a large open area in LA near Skid Row, contract the construction of a large homeless shelter, and then sell it to someone who campaigns for that kinda thing, say, a musician, for a nominal fee so it's not a gift.
Spend anything I have left over on strippers, I guess, because there's no actual pricing plan for strippers so I could burn all the money I want and it's not gifting.
Also, hire some guy to stare disapprovingly at anyone who protests the construction of my homeless shelter.

Put myself in a boxing match against a homeless man that's near death, bet all 30 million dollars on myself to lose. Schedule the fight for after the 30 day period then lose the fight on purpose. Since the rules were broken I may not get 300 Million. But at least I get more than 1 million.

Funny thing about the 1985 film is that it's the NINTH film adaptation to the source material.

Run a wrestling show.
Make the cardinal sin of asking a performer "so, what d'you think you're worth?" and take their answer at face-value.
Job done.

Pay Brock Lesnar to beat up Martin Shkreli, complete with his bail money to get out of jail afterward and a bribe to the officers that show up toet it keep going for a few minutes

If I remember correctly in the movie Brewster bought some stocks that made some money, and he got mad because now he had even more money he had to get rid of. So I'm thinking yes.

I think you have to get real value for what you pay for.

Sleep with Demi Moore 30 times. Now that sounds like a plan, though maybe it might be a better idea to select someone you know for sure knows what the hell they are doing (not saying that she doesn't, but I would have no idea). You are paying $1M a night, after all.

I would genuinely consider just taking the one million.
I think never having to work again would probably be f***ing terrible for me. I like being productive.
A million would be enough to not have to worry about anything but not so much that I'd get taken advantage of immediately by people who know a mug when they see one. I would still have to work, but wouldn't worry about paying a bill ever again.
Pretty much an ideal amount of cash, that.

Don't spend any if it. Declare bankruptcy the day before the deadline. Isn't that how these things work?

Pay 3 people 5 million apiece to legally give away/do whatever the other 15 million.
Never said you CAN'T pay someone else to give it away.
