I think there are real problems that computers can solve, such as engineering rockets to obliterate meteorites that may destroy earth. Also, producing jobs for citizens that have an interest in computers. On the other hand, computers can also generate problems that must in turn be dealt with. Thus computer in themselves have an entire eco-chamber of worth. One million dollars could be used to make more money perpetually, thus it could be used for help or hurt. Thus you would need to use it for immediate help such as food, clothing and shelter while the money continued to generate upon itself.
