    You’ll be better off dumping your cash into stock and shares.

      The point though is that I ultimately don’t care for wealth. Stocks and indexes would be playing into the same billionaire game that I would be trying to steer away from (albeit an impossible feat to dodge entirely).

      I would probably use it in local governments to provide housing and better shelters for the poor; donate to programs that help children in underrepresented communities; buy materials for schools; contribute to mental health services and police reform (through community-lead programs).

        Well, if we’re talking about me specifically, then I don’t live in the US and I don’t pay CGT. When I get my profits, I get 100%.
