The question itself may be joke, and I myself really appreciate hard working.

But I am still curious to know some interesting, funny and slightly serious ideas, such as "million dollar homepage", " sites" (at the extreme soul cost), etc.

Become friends with everyone who wants to do a startup and seed them a grand. Cash in later.

- Buy stocks of all tech. companies and hope for them to always go up and not down.

- If you like women, Get Marrisa Mayer to divorce her husband and marry you. If you like men, get Zuckerburg to divorce his wife and marry you.

- Start a kickstarter project and ask every tech. company CEO to donate for your "minimum effort" cause.

- If nothing works, Pray and Dream about it every day. You never know if someone up there is listening

EDIT: I know I was probably going to be downvoted by some. But do we really want to entertain such questions on HN ?

Sorry, but there are a bunch of people who are willing to work really hard who are in your way.
