Resolves to poll in a few days, 60%/30%/10% for 1st/2nd/3rd place.

I was going to make a market about which option would win this poll but it has become immediately obvious that everyone on manifold wants ten trillion dollars and no fingers.

Once we have enough responses in this market, I will create a poll asking what people would do with their ten trillion dollars and no fingers. The poll will be open for a few days, and then close along with this market.

This question resolves Win, Place, Show to the top three highest-voted responses:

  • 1st (Win) 60%

  • 2nd (Place) 30%

  • 3rd (Show) 10%

Submission rules:

  • Don't submit more than three options yourself

  • Don't submit anything too close to an existing submission

  • Do submit either silly ideas or serious ideas

  • Do argue for why your submission is the best use of the ten trillion dollars

  • Do let me know if you have any other suggestions for submission rules
