o) FiWi chips and FiWi concentrators
o) Train people in fields that give them long term careers, e.g. how to
construct & manage fiber & RF networks
o) Things to help with climate impacts, e.g. advertise the heck out of
heat pumps
o) Fund shelters and support systems for victims of domestic violence
o) Try to find a business model that pays journalists so we don't have
to rely on Jeff Bezos for our news
I wouldn't:
o) Buy an island in Hawaii
o) Buy a house that's more than 2000 sq ft
o) Buy a boat
o) Have 11 kids with multiple women
o) Fund anti aging research
o) Try to build rockets to mars, unless the project hired minorities to
do so
