You are given a a million dollars if you can spend it in one day. The transaction has to be finished that day, so no houses or similar. What do you buy? (lazysoci.al)

Why no houses? I'm sure I could find a house that they could sign over that day if I paid the whole million in cash. It'd be a shithole anyway, if it's only a million bucks.

I guess I could buy a million dollars worth of shares in something that will likely go up by a few cents if not a few dollars the next day, so I could immediately sell the shares and would have more than 1 million.
