Rather than re-allocating their money across every human on earth, why not allocate it inversely proportional to the net worth of the recipient (and maybe also local currency conversion rate), to uplift the poorest folks?
Could probably choose a lower number, too - say, $100M. Nobody needs anywhere remotely close to that.
I just realized that the realty market always runs a drought to up its sale price. Also, since homeless also don’t have housing, there’s an even greater housing shortage than just those seeking to move into a “forever home.”
Yeah 100M feels right. Also, wealth is usually tied up in non liquid assets, and it makes no sense to either force liquidation even if it crashes the value, or divide ownership equally among 9 billion people. Each asset needs to be re-allocated on a case by case basis. Like, the private international bridge in Detroit, it's much more valuable as a single asset than the steel scrap it could be sold for.
I’d rather make sure everyone has everything they need for at least basic life. Healthcare, education, infrastructure to name a few. Food for schools. I know a lot of countries already have this. But many don’t even have access to clean water. Ideally worldwide. And throw corrupt politicians and military overlords in there. Although many of them would be counted in the >$1b. Get rid of the religious wackjobs and maybe we could start progressing as a species.
That's just gonna drive up inflation. Instead, invest that into better farms, industries, businesses, and schools that provide services at-cost or free. Or just use the assets left by those guys for the public good, they're already set up.
Not much, as I understand it it's as difficult, if not more difficult to actually enter a black hole, as it is to throw something into the sun. Literally easier to just fling it out into the cosmos.
You have to shed the inertia you already have to fall into the sun. The difference is about 30km/s or 108,000 km/h to slow down enough. The rotational plane of the solar system can be used to speed you up to escape velocity, especially with a slingshot off one of the giants, so it requires a lot less fuel.
I didn't think about the escape part. Who knows, maybe there is a wormhole at the end.
Also, I'm pretty sure it will be a much peaceful way to go then the sarlac pit, considering the speeds involved.
Afaik from perspective of the one falling nothing may even change as they cross into the black hole. And I think they also never reach the center in their local timeframe, but that one I can't remember
I had the opportunity some "time" ago and I chose to send our entire universe into a black hole. Now we are all stuck here, infinitely reliving the same existences and timelines. My bad.
IIRC, and understand the theory correctly, I believe your best chance for survival is a spinning supermassive black hole. I think that's the one that might not spaghettify you. I know you want supermassive, just can't remember if you want it spinning or stationary.
If you can survive it, you'll end up at the end of the universe within your own lifetime, due to time dilation. Possibly almost instantly from your perspective. Not sure what you'd do at that point though.
Earth
Billionaires and Right wingers around the world.
By now just the entire planet.
the worlds top 40 wealthiest people.
Oh, please, you know exactly who my answers are.
The republican party. Aka modern day fascists.
Maybe the DNC and establishment neoliberals too, who ushered in fascism.

Another blackhole
Every person in the world with a net worth over $1B USD. Then I'd equally reallocate their money across every human on earth.

Or better yet, send the money with them.
Seems like an arbitrary threshold. Does anybody actually need $900 million? Or $300 million? Or...
Yes, I'm in dire need of $999,999,999.99 but of course I don't need any more than that, thank you
Using Hawking radiation!
B-but billionaires have rights too!!
They can stop being billionaires by giving away that money anytime they want to not go into the black hole.
OMG that's actually fair
I'd throw in the post below
Pasta dough.

Was gonna say the Epstein class but those are basically one and the same. ^
Every. Single. Fascist.

I'd choose the entirety of American politics.

Another black hole. I just wanna see what happens you know?
They just merge. They're just really really dense concentrations of mass-energy, not extradimensional portals.

Oh right
Myself to see what's all the fuss is about.
The Sarlac pit might be a blessing since the Mandalorian suggests you could escape, but a blackhole… that’d suck.
I didn't think about the escape part. Who knows, maybe there is a wormhole at the end. Also, I'm pretty sure it will be a much peaceful way to go then the sarlac pit, considering the speeds involved.
The Unsellable Elephant that thw other guy just got on his weird application survey question.
Republicans.
The human compulsion to invent religions.
Trick question. Time dilation means nothing ever actually enters a black hole. It just keeps getting infinitesimally close.
"are we there yet" ... "are we there yet"...
What if someone pushed?
I'm not that scientifically literate, but isn't that just from the perspective of an outside observer?
Afaik from perspective of the one falling nothing may even change as they cross into the black hole. And I think they also never reach the center in their local timeframe, but that one I can't remember
From your point of view yes. I guess it fades into the infrared and keeps fading away.
That just makes it a worse fate
A white hole.
This one's underrated
A probe.
Just toss in a rock, it’d have the same result.

Jokes on you, the universe only has one extremely busy electron.
More black holes
Is it not already spaghettified!?
I want to throw some spaghetti in. Spaghetti gets sphagettified
All of the Republicans.
Aging.
There is like a very specific country in the middle east I am thinking of...
The perception of that country Israeli quite poor at the moment.
Well played.

Can't I just roll it around like the ball in katamari?

It's actually only a handful out of the 3500 species that's an issue.
Was gonna say billionaires, but then I thought: why not go myself? See you on the other side, losers.

Pretty sure even if you don't spaghettify, you still get crushed to death by the pressure.

He'll probably make a deal with the black hole and find a way out. He is scary!
Money, borders
Now what the heck is a black hole gonna do with those?
A white hole.
