      Good question, but not easy to answer.
      Indeed, if I knew the answer to it, and could do it, I’d be an amazing person, which I’m not.
      Most of engineering is about making steady improvements to things, with few completely new inventions.
      It’s hard to predict what the next big invention will be, because it probably hasn’t been thought of yet. Maybe you will be the one to do it!
      And the money? I hope I’d spend it wisely, and use it to try to help the less well off.
