  We are only two. We have a house. Our total annual expenses all found including gifts and travel comes to about Rs.600,000. Medical expenses excluded.
  At 78 years there is no personal use to me for that kind of money. I would put it all on setting up engineering teaching, R&D, and technical work force training across the country with self sustaining funds. No fees will be charged for the courses. A portion will be set aside for free hostel for the deserving students unable to pay for it.
  The organization will have to be self sustaining.
  Maybe funding of deserving startups can also be considered. They payback once successful.
  Rs.5,000,000,000,000.
  Too many zeroes. Ultimately ending as a single zero.

  Okay, I'm 35 at the time of writing this post and there are few things I'll do -
  
  1. Take out $1 billion and invest that money into funds (70%) + land (10%) + FD (10%).
  2. Out of remaining 10%, some amount of money is going to buying material happiness 😨.
  3. Ok, I did leave out a TON of money. That is going into -
  

  • Clean energy research. I think we desperately need to discover a way to stop polluting our planet.
  • Cleaning up of our rivers and finding permanent solution to stop polluting research.
  • Finding out a way to mass-clean air and restore it to levels it was Jurassic era.
  • Investing in promising startups
  • Job creation for both skilled and unskilled people so that everyone can feed themselves and the dependents
  • Rest of the money would go into funding innovation in farming technologies that doesn't harm the Earth.

  How's that?

  To earn this kind of money, one needs to create a product that everyone uses on this plant earth.Like Mobile Phones, Like Internet etc.
  
  Personal Opinion : Earning money should not be our motive, Serving people with innovation should be. Like Bill Gates, who created Personal Desktop for everyone to use. Bill Gates was already Personal jet kinda of rich. He is currently working on wiping malaria out of earth.
  
  P.S. if earning this kind of money provides me great fame, then i would like to book a meeting with warren buffet and bill gates , learn how did they connected the dot of their lives and became this rich.
