Alternative strategy, buy a few dozen bags of uncle bens instant rice and a dozen Psilocybin spore syringes for like ~$100. Grow a few tubs full of mushrooms and sell them online and get paid in Monero. Cash out a small portion of the profits (~$200) and double up your production. Do that a few dozen times. When you got around $50,000 in profit exchange the Monero to ADA/DOGE/SHIB and hold for 2-3x.

I ran the numbers for fun once, including porn and "sugar baby" and honestly I think it pays terribly. It's probably in the "high waitress tip" range but way below tech. If your only skills are being pretty, your best bet might be ASMR on YouTube. There's also a lot of marketing needed. It's hard enough to sell SaaS or whatever, how do you sell something that's free in large quantities? If you have marketing skills a…
$10 will get you one share of AMC right now, and if the hedge funds ever close their short positions, the result could be $100,000 per share.
The best ROI would be to rob a bank. Whether or not you could keep that $100K is another matter entirely. Robbing banks with a gun is not much different from people (aka 'banks') robbing you with a fountain pen, ethically and legally speaking.

You'd have to rob a lot of banks to get to $100K, however. And the FBI is very effective at catching bank robbers. It would be pretty low on my personal list of illegal ways to get money.
It would make for a funny movie scene that a bank robber tries to rob a bank and finds out its "cashless". Maybe they steal the pens? Or try to get them to write out a cashiers check? Then they have a problem with the printer and the triplicate forms they need to fill out.
All other 6 figure professions require massive schooling or certifications/apprenticeships/internships of some kind. Or years to get to 6 figure territory. For tech, you can learn web development online and then work at any SaaS that has CRUD apps as a junior-mid level engineer and start around there. If/once you have experience you should be starting above that.
One viable option is some consultancy that pays for deliverables, not hours and meeting attendance. Let me know if you find a consultancy like this. I think that would be ideal semi-retirement mode, work one 6 month contract each year or something like that.
