This basically the premise to Richard Pryor's movie "Brewster's Millions" except that one of the rules was that you cannot buy or own anything. At the end of the month you must have spent the money and have nothing to show for it.

The answer is politics. Spend it all on a political campaign.

That is inherently a gift then, donation? No different that giving it away and morally lesser to giving to the poor. Breaks one of the rules.

Oh no. The no gifting rule is also in effect. It was his own political campaign.
