Both vegas and the stock market offer several opportunities to get nearly even odds on high payoff bets. Through options or craps you could easily make a bet with 20:1 odds and leave at the end of the day with $1MM or nothing.
You can also find odds in between that would give you slightly more opportunity to cash in along the way. At 1:1 odds at Vegas or on options you could make 5 successful bets and be at $1MM.
Typically, bets over 50k become harder at Vegas but are easy at options. The commision on options brings those odds down slightly below even, so your choice in this extreme scenario isn't much different.
I think both of these options are much better than any scheme as you can get clear reilable information on your chances of success. Good luck, 1 of every 20 people willing to put it on the line will become a millionaire.
P.S. - You could buy a T-Bill and guarantee yourself about $6000 in two years.

For that quick of a return, you would need to find a hidden blue-chip stock that's about to soar in price or try your luck at the tables in Las Vegas or at your local Indian casino. FYI - If you call one of the Vegas resorts and explain to them you plan to gamble $50k, they will probably hook you up with some cool perks (free show tickets, luxury suites, food, transportation, etc.).

If you want to make 20X your investment in four years, go to NV and take a shot. Or, find a stock that is going to double and split over and over and over and over...?get the picture?

Depending on your risk aversion, you could invest in some very high risk stocks. You'll risk losing it all, but you could gain big.

Ask Mr Trump or Bill Gate they should know, you better ask someone who knows what they are talking about.
