Go for the riskiest thing you can find, since there is no loss if you fail. No sane investor would do it, but you have no down side.

think smaller, riskier, less well-known.

also, buy as few things as they let you.

Can you buy options or any kind of derivative?

Well I'm not sure what your time period is for this, but I’d suggest looking buying lots of MRVC or RAD. If you can buy options then I'd suggest looking at the March or April GOOG $490 call options or the April AAPL $85 call options. Options have more leverage then just buying a lot of small penny stocks like MRVC or RAD so I would go that way if you can. Also if you can buy futures or FX contracts they would offer you even more leverage then options.

Yes, don't bother making good investing decisions. Just bet it all on the riskiest, most leveraged thing you can find.
