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
