this is a great question - i think direct cash payments to people in my local community - create affordable housing (like run it at cost) - use $ to influence local politics and make my city objectively better

Plan + seed 10,000 technical training pipelines targeting at rural/appalachia/middle america/southwest teens/20 somethings that would've previously taken CTE/automotive/blue collar type life paths - includes ex-prisoners. Program Characteristics are: - 2 year track - Software (Code foundations + Solo/Team Full stack Project focused curricula with an emphasis on AI tool utilization) + Hardware (Machining, manufacturing, Engineering Fundamentals) generalist program - 1 year extension option in specific functional areas - security, critical language study, likely driven by needs of the local area - Every program feeds directly into technical roles in existing local companies or nearby cities.

I am not rich but I still try to help people: I volunteer for a charity that helps move survivors of gender based violence, and I volunteer for another one that provides high school students in need of external scholarships. It’s easy to distribute money and give it away in some tangible forms like scholarships, but what matters more is what you do with your time. Even if you have a million dollars, if you don’t know how to distribute it properly or aren’t willing to spend your time learning how to make the best social change out of your dollar, your money will be ineffective. I prefer to run charities like for-profit companies, except the customers/beneficiaries are the people who need it the most ☺️

continue doing what I am already doing. give opportunies to people I see may be able to make something out of them. build up education that's more entrepreneurial and caters to young me who had to learn it all myself, make it more guided so people 12+ can go there and get answers + support right away vs having to go the hard path setup a family fund to take care of all financials forever

"Helping people" is a super broad goal and different people obviously have different needs. Personally, I think certain basic needs (food, water, medicine, shelter, mental health), financial support systems, as well as education and networking, would be the areas I would focus on, as they are the areas I have seen act as springboards or pillars of opportunity. Firstly, by allowing people to have access to basic needs they might not ordinarily have would give them a foundation to build upon. Beyond that, setting up educational programs for people to learn and gain the skills they want, which would then open up access to support systems attached to what they have learned based on the completion of education programs/modules. For example, if a person wants to learn how to grow food or start a small business, giving them the access to that knowledge and then also the ongoing support (financial and otherwise) to realise that goal.

Invest in founding and sustaining Islamic K-12 schools across small and mid-sized cities in the US. Create my own Thiel Fellowship for people who want to work on ambitious, values-aligned projects that aren't startups. Give money to my family and the homies to help them build savings, buy houses, etc.

I'm a big believer in mutual aid and doing good via personal networks. I don't give to organized charities very often, but I do contribute to people's GoFundMe's and things of that nature. Sometimes I contribute to local nonprofits like legal aid or food pantries. I would do the same things, but more! For example, instead of helping someone buy groceries I would pay their rent for a month.

Would most likely use the money to grow what I already do at a much larger scale and help educate people on finance and money. Or some form of education to improve peoples lives.

Hard to say because there's so many potential pathways but split between mutual aid orgs, orgs fundraising for abortion funds and trans healthcare and rights, support groups working on organizing the working class like Workers Strike Back, support refugee aid groups, fund antiwar organizers, donate to Prader-Willi Syndrome Research and children's hospitals... There's too much. We need collective resources.
