Unconventional Ways to Become a Millionaire

There are so many ways to gain possession of a cool one million dollards in your lifetime and become a millionaire. The average person earns at least one million dollars from their various employment in their lifetime. Most of it is taken away by the government (hey, they already have their million!!!), spend on frivolous things like rent, cars, health care, etc. It's true that you can't be so obsessed about money that you fail to enjoy your life, but the peace of mind knowing that you can live off the interest of your money is a powerful thing. So how do you obtain this one million billion trillion dollars (in a Dr.Evil tone)?

You can dare someone to hit you in a crosswalk with their Lamborghini. Suing someone rich is always an easy way to riches - course you may never walk, think or eat without a straw again, but you will have a million dollars to your name.

Get on a game show and become a millionaire. The hard part is getting on the show, winning the money is far easier. All the people who would do well are at home yelling at the screen, while the idiots are on the show and aren't "smarter than a 5th grader."

Get on a TV show and hope it takes off like Friends - or a small percentage of that success. Those six "friends" sure made more than their allotted one million dollars. How about a show called "Pals" or "Buddies?" Just audition for the shows that sound like people are more than acquaintances.

Start a lawsuit against a huge industry. That is a sure-fire way to become a millionaire. Try the beer industry for getting you drunk in college, the drug industry for that Tylenol that made you stay up for days, or the automobile industry for that finger that ended up in your new SUV's glove box. Get a group of like-minded people together and sue for some ungodly figure of $2.7 billion, which will get split up between everyone. The thing might not get settled until you're 80, but that's a small price to pay to get your million dollar slice.
