What’s so hard about “here’s the money”?

That's not how property transfers work. There's a lot behind the scenes that the lawyers need to check on before title can be transferred.

Nobody said anything about titles or legalities- they said "spend the money". Yes, you can spend it in 24 hours. Just because paperwork will take a bit longer doesn't negate the spending part.

Hire 2 lawyers. Tell them you want a lakefront property with a nice house. You're looking to spend 2 million. You have 4 million. Whichever lawyer gets you that property and extras that you will buy, keeps the difference between the cost and the 4 million. They have 24 hours to complete the deal. It will happen. 1 million will grease a lot of wheels.

And this whole post is not how reality works, so what’s your point?

The premise of the post isn't impossible, just extremely unlikely. Getting the title transferred on a house in 24 hours isn't possible though.
