Retire
Help every homeless person in my city, then my county, my province.
Order or build locally, tiny homes for all the homeless in my city. Expand outwards if I had money left.
Buy the local power corp and run it as a nonprofit.
I live in Halifax, Nova Scotia. We really don’t get natural disasters here.
The closest we get in Halifax is a Cat 3 hurricane once every 3 or 4 years, multiple blizzards each winter, we get light freezing rain once a year and a significant amount about every 10 years.
We lose power for a few hours many times per year because our power company is privately owned and has to answer to shareholders.
I once went without power for 3 days.
Could be a lot worse.
