I have wondered how others might spend the money to accomplish the same goals. I mean, here are some ideas:
Travel in style - entire cruise line rented for you and a hired entourage to be at sea for 25 days. This gets rid of the money. You can spend it all and get a receipt day one. You are also at sea and not at risk to purchase anything.
Any other ideas?

Free concerts are the best way to spend lost of money.
I'm into classical music, so what about a classical marathon with the best orchestras with the best soloists and singers in 30 days? I'd give the people Wagner's Ring Cycle with the best singers. Traditional staging.
I would buy dilapidated property in good areas.
Then when I got my $300million, I would renovate and restore it.

........So, you're saying you would buy, and own, property. Christ, what is wrong with your brain.

Here are the rules;
1. You CAN NOT accumulate wealth or goods. At the ends of the 30 days you can't have anything that you didn't already own.
2. You can not buy stuff and then destroy it.
3. Also you can not give the money away, so no buying expensive or lavish gifts for other people.
4. You can hire people to work for you, but you have to get real valve for their services.
5. You can give away 5% to charity and lose 5% to gambling.
6. You can not tell anybody what you're doing.
If you're not sure here is the set up for the rules.Warning, language, NSFW
So if you can do all of this you would win 300 million. If you can't, you get nothing. There is a "wimp" clause, you can take 1 million dollars instead.
So what would you do?

shareI hate the premise that it's somehow difficult to spend a large amount of money, when the world is like this, where people do desperate things just to put bread on the table and the oligarchs have so much money it's not even funny.
In any case, since he's allowed to arbitrarily pay 'any amount he sees fit' for people's services, just hire a hooker for 30 million for 1 hour the last day, done.
They do have a bit of the right idea, living in an expensive hotel suite, so that would be one good thing to do.
Basically it should be easy to simply invest in things like that - just rent everything you can that you have to keep paying for, then trash the places so you have to pay damages. I know you are not allowed to 'destroy', but 'damaging' is not the same thing. If you get a scratch on your lamborghini, that's not destroying the lamborghini, but it'll cost to buff it out.
So to keep it simple, just rent expensive things, use expensive 'services', use the money for everything and anything that doesn't accumulate or give you anything permanent. So, food, traveling, massages, advisors, teachers, accountants and so on. 30 Million would be chump change considering how much all this would cost. Why rent only one hotel room when you could rent 20?
What would stop Brewster from doing the same '2 million' thing to 14 other hotels? He could live in 15 different hotel suites in luxury and then the last day just pay it all, and boom, done. Easy. Or pay slightly less and then he could also cruise around in an entourage of limousines all over the place, even between cities and such. Anything you consume, anything that's a service, anything you can rent at high price.. it's not that hard.
