If an ultra rich person wanted to do as much damage to the world as possible, how might they do it?

I'm wondering about the risks of having ultra rich people, so this is related to economics. Also, please no off the cuff "just keep doing what they are doing" answers.

Even the wealthiest people could at most amass $100b to play with individually. That level fo spending wouldn’t be able to have any major effects on the aggregate economy - at least not recession levels of destruction. Probably the most damning route would be to use that money to fund massive covert disinformation campaigns, sow distrust and division among different groups, and use money to buy political influence in order to manipulate legislation. 

But as a fiscal tool of damage, no one person controls enough wealth to seriously damage the US economy in a legal fashion.
