'Spend Elon Musk's money' games are everywhere - and the reactions are simply brilliant

Online games called Spend Elon Musk's Money have been popping up everywhere - and there have been some brilliant reactions shared on social media.

There are a number of different online sites where people can spend the estimated wealth of the richest man in the world on various different things to see what they could buy with what he's estimated to be worth.

There are all sorts of things available to buy from cans of Coca Cola to buildings and skyscrapers, aeroplanes, X / Twitter itself and loads more.

And in a brilliant Reddit thread that's since been deleted but still has loads of amazing comments on it, there have been some truly brilliant reactions to how people have spent the money.

One user said: "I picked everything I realistically wanted and barely cracked $2 billion. Insane." And another commented in reply to that: "I barely cracked 300 million and I bought the entire Senate."

Another said: "Not enough money. I need 10 Elons to buy Microsoft. I want to buy Microsoft because they own Activison Blizzard. I need to control them so I can get a new patch for Diablo 2 Resurrected and fix a bunch of items that need buffing."

"Just tried to buy a trip in an ambulance and it said I didn't have enough funds," a third said.

A fourth said: "Bought every NBA team. I'm making three pointers worth one point and letting players play more physical defence."

"I guess I'll have two Mona Lisas," a fifth commented.
