I may never achieve any of these. Without much help, not one.
Use substantial cash prizes to put the interfaces to crucial technologies into the public domain. This will include roadtrains and software for collaboration that, in turn, will facilitate the recognition of meritorious ideas.
Accelerate the design, manufacturing and marketing of inexpensive and eventually mandatory devices to provide drivers with on-board speed limits. These will facilitate turning and merging in traffic and sharply reduce traffic casualties. (Intersection collisions annually kill approximately 7,000 people in the US and 175,000 worldwide with 40X as many injuries.) These devices could also remind drivers to accelerate smartly through bottlenecks. Personalized acceleration/speed limits combined with idle engine cut-off can double fuel economy in light to moderate city traffic. This functionality may be integrated with navigation and traffic reporting devices such as provided by dash or, better, linked directly to the throttle.
Design, develop, privately finance and manufacture roadtrain vehicles for sale throughout the world.
Expedite development of wiki-like software that readily identifies authors and adjudicates disputes in such a way that it is easy to participate in the process and identify expertise. Develop an ownership model which appropriately rewards and protects contributors who require financial incentives.

Write and video a biography to the age to fifty. Improve my teaching, singing, dancing, and acting. Travel and learn more languages and customs. Get paid a bit by Hollywood to do it. Work on and maybe underwrite screenplays like 2088.
Distribute the work of entering candidate positions by wikifying the policy questions and subsequent candidate recommendations at ontheissues.org (full disclosure: Jesse Gordon is my housemate.) and votesmart.org. This will expand the vote matching feature of the site and help voters to make more informed decisions about congressional and local races.
