Would donations count as gifting? There are so many FOSS projects that could use the cash inflow.

If it doesn't count, well, prepare for a deluge of hentai to show up in a month.

I'll pay for college for a large number of people and pay a lawyer to defend my action as not "giving it away."

Since buying and giving in permament use is not gifting, I can go with that option.

I'll just invest that into a nice, stable, diverse stock portfolio then, and use the dividends to both live on and start a charitable non-profit. Building shelters, donating to politicians who champion human rights, education, healthcare, founding free clinics, angel investing in co-op businesses, and funding food banks isn't giving away the money after all. it'll be slow going but pay broader dividends down the road.
