Save until you can get a 1M dollar loan, buy a house, pay off house.

Sell a million dollars + cost to you worth of stuff.
Oh wait only sales matters and everything else just exists to support that? I kind of have to rethink things now.

Find something that someone pay you $10 for, and automate it 100,000 times.

whats your current balance sheet, your PnL, your skillset, your morals? Who are you? Give us anything to go with.

My net worth is 0,5M dollars.
Skillset: engineer and can do anything.
No morals.
I am 43 years and live in Norway.
I love to travel and have been many wonderful places on earth. I have worked as a software developer for 20 years.
In that case, it's easy. Liquidate everything into cash. Go to Vegas. Find a high roller roulette wheel. Bet it all on black. There's a small chance you walk away with 1M, but there's also a chance you don't.

Start with two million and send half of it my way. ;)
More seriously, why are you aiming so low if your goal is to use money to induce pride? Caring about dollars suggests the USA*, where a mere one million can be earned the boring way by working as a software developer for, like, 7 years or something.
Also more seriously, find a better way to make people proud. Money is an endless treadmill of anxiety and one-upmanship if you don't have a specific end in mind.
* but could also be Canada, Australia, NZ, or a few other places

I live in Norway, but can do anything, anywhere, to get 1 million dollars. (Must be legal)
1 million dollars or more, in one year.

Have an idea worth investing in, and contact a venture capitalist. I'm sure there's at least few on this website…
(But I get the impression that a million might be a little on the low side for many VCs, as you can't run any team for very long on that).

Must be legal, of course.
> No morals.
What kind of family you got?
Lots of opportunity in FinTech - see https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/
