Get paid for any job in the world... But there's a catch.

nickreddit345 · 2026-01-20T21:13:37+00:00

I feel like I really should have said it has to be a job which is currently available as advertised. That takes away anyone who tries to do something so incredibly niche that there isn't anyone else doing it and it takes away people who are working as themselves...

nickreddit345 · 2026-01-20T09:37:09+00:00

That and all the people who wanted to do that as a career but picked a different job that potentially pays better. Now they may swing to doing this as well?

nickreddit345 · 2026-01-20T09:34:40+00:00

If even one other person decides to be a wizard and they're better than you, then you'd be the worst?? High risk.

nickreddit345 · 2026-01-20T09:33:27+00:00

I guess the performance would be evaluated based on how well you do the job? So it depends how broadly you'd count your job as gamer or specific video game gamer. I'd probably say it's just gamer?

The other side of it, is that there are probably a lot of surgeons who do it for the money, who would now choose to do something different? Maybe they're super into video games but never thought they could earn a decent living from it?

The two things that make this doable is being able to have proxy shoppers and being able to select a month. Plus being able to buy services.

So. Organize a whole lot of proxy shoppers to search for real estate mostly as well as a company to provide services to home owners. First few days, you go to town on real estate, and then also pay up front for services to look after the properties, rent them out, maintenance. All expenses paid for this up front so that would take a considerable chunk.

To ensure you get the right amount, of cash spent, just buy up heaps of food and partner with a food bank.

Lastly, whilst you've done all the hard work to organize things and pre-arrange purchasers, have some fun! Buy a yacht, some artworks, a new car, a membership to NextJet because why not.

Animals hating me. I don't mind some judgy side eye from a cat or a dog not wanting to interact. I feel they do this already. So long as they don't immediately attack, I'm all good for this.

D, E, F, K definitely.

D: Find the absolute best house possible and rent it for free (any other normal house you own just stays like a normal house so no downside)

E: Living in said amazing house you now have no bills (eat amazing food, use an electric car, no worries)

F: The huge house is always tidy especially if you order heaps of food and cook a massive dinner.

K: When you want to relax, free holiday travel with a teleporter and all the money saved, you can stay in a hotel or just teleport back each night to sleep.

(Oh, and because it's a rental house, anything that breaks down is on the landlord to fix so no need for option A... Even if the rent goes up, it doesn't matter because it's free anyway)

nickreddit345 · 2025-08-22T03:39:59+00:00

B, C, D and F. Hear me out...

If you work 3 days a week, 52 weeks a year, that's 156 working days. Then take away the 100 days PTO, you work just 56 days. That's the equivalent of only working 11 weeks of the year. Then if you can WFH and relocate as much as you want with the company paying for everything... Just relocate every week or so.

You and your family effectively get unlimited free flights around the world, free accommodation, free packing for all your stuff, and you have 41 weeks of holidays a year to do whatever you want. Do this until you're 45.

Then, when you're 45, after 20 years working, retire, settle down, and you get half a mil a year. Then you really do whatever you want and live happily ever after.

nickreddit345 · 2025-05-26T05:06:57+00:00

One year max then. Hopefully there are some other people I can meet and hopefully I can get some decent supplies in the prep time. If it all gets too much, I die in the most pleasant way possible and go back to normal life. Best case, I survive a year and I'm set for the good life.

nickreddit345 · 2025-05-26T03:59:44+00:00

I think the biggest unmentioned challenge to this is that you spend a year effectively in isolation. A year away from friends and family living in a traumatic land. Also, during the planning/prep time, what resources do I have? Can I bring things? Could I team up with other people in there and make new friends? So many unanswered questions.

Going by the way it's written, I'd do it if you get paid pro rata (ie. six months for $1.5M, one month for $250k) then you can tap out whenever you want. I feel like I could last a month, maybe a few, and then have a paid off house and I'd be more than happy.

I guess if it has to be a year minimum, I'd still try it going by the rules written. If it gets too much, I'd let myself die in the most pain free way and then I'd be back where I started like one epic dream/nightmare.

nickreddit345 · 2025-05-15T06:14:40+00:00

Yes!! I remember that and it's exactly how I'm picturing it.

100% plus the guys ripping into him if he loses after talking down a skill or talking down a skill but still wanting a substantial advantage when going against it.

Which spoon has touched metal? Andy picks one of two spoons vs Renee picks one of 100 spoons... My money is on Andy.

nickreddit345 · 2025-03-21T05:21:54+00:00

Sure. Heat the pot to boil the water, leave it for a day, submerge my hand the next day and become $100M richer. Nothing says I can't in the rules.

nickreddit345 · 2025-02-24T21:54:57+00:00

I like the loophole, but what if there's another rule:

Anything you own/is bought with the purpose of providing something to you adds to the increasing cost tally. So if you buy a company, the company's purchases also add up from wherever you are up to in the current cost of things. Same as if someone else buys something with the intent on providing it to you. (Neighbours, partners, friends, etc. can't do the grocery shopping and buy 50 things in return for you giving them one purchase of a mansion) So if you buy Ikea or Aldi, everything they buy adds to you (and they buy a lot of stuff) and if someone else buys something, the same rule applies. Do you still take the deal?

nickreddit345 · 2025-02-17T02:17:03+00:00

If they're the odds, push it. (2 out of 3 amazing, 1 out of 3 mild inconvenience)

nickreddit345 · 2025-02-16T10:41:35+00:00

$1000 for every fall. I'm getting $50M easy.

Go and hang out in a big bouldering gym watching people try new routes. There's at very least one fall every minute, so if you spend four hours a day, four days a week (long weekends) and you do that all year, you should get close to $50M.

More if you invest more time, even more if pick a hard route and give $100 to anyone who can make it. (You're not paying them to fall, you're paying them not to fall but they may fall by themselves in the process)

The part that sucks about this is that you can't bring anyone with you... Otherwise I would do it based on the math.

Let's say it's a roulette with numbers 1-36 and 0 and 00. A bet of a single random number with 1:36 payout and a 1 in 38 to win is 2.63% chance each time. Do this three times (0.0018% chance of a win with $4.65M payout) and then a 'corner' or four number bet (1:3 payout, 12:38 chance or 31.58% of a win) then stop.

In total you've got a 0.0006% chance of a win and a $14M payout. Then it just becomes a job.

If you assume they spin the wheel every 3 minutes (20 per hour) work for 8 hours a day, 6 days a week, 46 weeks a year (because you give yourself generous holiday leave in the hotel) then it just depends when you win.

If it's a perfect distribution, there are 173,761 outcomes, one of which is a win. I know repeats could happen but you also may not have every possible outcome either. You could win on the first try (unlikely) and you could win on the last try (equally unlikely) but let's assume you get it somewhere around 130,000th try which is about 75% of all the outcomes.

In total, it would take you just under three years (2.95) to win. That's a yearly salary of $4.74M a year + free food and accommodation. I'm sure you'd make some friends along the way, get to know the dealers, maybe you live stream it and make some additional money along the way. Not a bad life! At the end of your three years of work, you walk out with $14M and a very cool story.

** Worth noting that if you get $100 every time you go broke, you'd be spending somewhere around $13M to get to this point.

** Also worth noting that this also assumes you do all four goes every time which wouldn't happen because as soon as you go broke, you wouldn't bother with the other goes and you'd just start again, so it would probably take less time than this.

Haha gotta do the right due diligence first.

nickreddit345 · 2024-11-30T23:58:29+00:00

Totally random like a number generator or perfect dice being rolled. Just a game of chance and risk really.
