Seems pretty easy, buy 100mil of gold bullion. It's around 3100 lb (1400kg) and is relatively small. I think you could hit it under a bed or couch or two. Probably fit it into a couple awkward corners in your closet. Use one as a paper weight.

I like this one because, even though it's a hypothetical, I always think these scenarios are going to involve me getting shafted somehow and it turns out they never had that billion and they just wanted you to experience having 100 mil for a short time so you know how much you lost and laugh while watching you piss it all away on things you didn't even necessarily want.

Your way has a nice insurance policy to it if they weren't good for the billion.

You can buy gold (and other precious metals) as exchange traded commodities, no reason to have them physically delivered to your home and risk damaging your floor.

At that point it starts to feel like cheating. Like just throwing it all into stocks, foreign currency or something.
