At 10B there are diseases I could fund cures for all on my own.

Heck I'd probably fund a couple tenure positions at a university on the condition that they research certain problems and publish everything to an open access journal. What does a bio lab cost to run, would 10 million a year cover it? That'd be 100 years of funding for 10% of my wealth.

I'd probably follow it up by going to one of my cities troubled youth schools and offering full ride scholarships to everyone who graduates. Figure 100 students a year, 100k scholarship, that's another 10 million a year, so another 10% gone.

Tl;Dr I'm having no problems figuring out how to spend 10 billion!

Full ride scholarship for 100k? You can't even pay 2 years of tuition at many schools with that, but I get your point.
