Casino. All on Black. Repeat 3 more times (hoping your luck holds out for each).
16x in under an hour. (or zero most likely... but definitely lowest effort)
I don't recommend this approach however
But yeah, if you're talking USD, then one could easily live comfortably for five years in Vietnam/Thailand for $20k/year. (Although you could easily live in a ton of countries if you pick your town/city/area correctly)
Then smash out all those side-gig bootstrap ideas that come to mind. If you can build MRR of approx $6k, then you've effectively built up the equivalent of $1M earning 7% in the bank.
Actually, my latest company was started 3 years (and nearly a month) ago, and is now earning easily that in revenue from one of its Saas products, so yeah, it's definitely acheivable.
Haha I love this! There was a gentleman that put his entire life savings on red and televised the event [0].
In reality for anyone reading, if you do want to gamble against the house, I suggest playing Craps and betting the Don't Pass Line. After surviving the first roll(s) and the button has been placed, you're allowed to place an additional bet called "laying the odds". This is the best bet in the casino. It is exactly 50/50, 0% house edge. The total casino edge for this combibed bet is less than 1% [1], where are roulette, red or black can have a house edge over 5% [2].
For $20k/year, you can choose so many countries. I would recommend Vienna, Austria. I live in the Netherlands and my expenses are 27k/year living alone and I can imagine you can have amazing lifestyle in Austria for 20k/year.
