Brewster's conundrum (spend 30m in 30 days and lose it all)

You're not allowed to tell anybody kind of sucks, because if I took my wife on some ridiculously expensive month long vacation she'd be downright mad at me for spending lurid amounts of money and I'd basically have to lie to her.

Any condition where I have to lie to everyone about my behavior for a month wouldn't really be worth it for me.

If that last condition wasn't there, then I'd take off the month of June or August or something, and go around the world with my wife, and also have a remarkable vacation for all of my friends and family somewhere. Kinda like how Tom Brady was at the 2014 Kentucky Derby and the Mayweather/PAcquiao fight in the same day, and then by the end of the weekend, was back in Brazil with Giselle... lots of that.

Also on the last day I'd buy some ridiculously expensive clothes (Assuming Jewelry is out of the question), for like $30 or $40,000 and sell them when day 30 is up.
 
Olympic swimming pool filled with Moet and Chandon. Repeat until money is spent.

Die of liver failure.
 
I'd buy a house, a bunch of video games, and a gun. Just before the clock rolled over into the 30th day I'd shoot myself.

That escalated quickly.

Here's my stab at it, granted I don't know all the rules and youtube is blocked at work so I guess I don't get to know them :p

Buy a plot of land in the poor area of town (either it'll be an empty lot or an old building)
Clear out plot
Build grocery store there, hopefully a chain that I buy the contract to, if not then just a no-name grocery store will do
Hire enough people to make sure it's built within two weeks and ready to open
Buy a bunch of inventory
Hire grocery staff to run the place
Sell the land and grocery store for pennies on the dollar to the local food shelter (it should count because I'm not just giving it away)
Be happy there's finally an accessible grocery store in the poor neighborhood

With this, I end up with no assets, and it doesn't count as a donation because I sold the place. Granted I don't think it'll eat up all the remaining money (after my charity and gambling), but I think I'd be able to use the rest of the money on renting a super nice McMansion to live in during this time (and hiring a bunch of staff for upkeep) or something.

Actually, I think if I rented out a luxurious enough place, and hired enough top tier professionals (like chefs, fitness people to whip me in shape, etc), sprinkled in with a few pricey as fuck vacations I could probably hit the limit without owning anything... I could rent an expensive as fuck car too :p But I like the first scenario more :(

As for people asking, only my boyfriend would be confused but I think saying something to the extent of "look I know this is crazy but trust me, I'm an accountant" would get him to not be worried lololol
