I realized that every time I search about making a quick million, someone comes with a logical but unrealistic idea of making a million dollars.
Post any way of making a million.
My idea: Buy 500k worth of pencils that cost a dollar and sell it for 3 dollars each

This is a quote by Richard Branson, who actually did exactly that.
Better question: how the fuck could you sell 500k pencils?
blow 40,000 guys for $25 each
Open up 500 credit card accounts with a credit limit of $10,000 each. Purchase 1 month US T-Bills. You will have just under 2 months to pay back your credit cards, and so long as you pay within the 2 months, its interest free. On top of that, you will get points awarded for all the volume you are using.
Profit off the yield from the T-Bills, the ability to borrow money interest free for 2 months, and the awards you get from the credit card companies.
Sell $1,000,000 worth of Credit Default Swaps (CDS) for Walmart Bonds.
Start a SPAC (special purpose acquisition company), issue bonds, buy credit default swaps against the bonds, have your SPAC file for bankruptcy, and you will be a multimillionaire very quick.
this is the kind of get-rich-quick attitude adopted by all the idiots in this country who have no skills or knowledge or work ethic that has put our society in such fine shape. i applaud you, son, keep chasing that dream.

Start with $5 million and buy european sovereign debt.
