Not even a milli?
With the caveat that I end up a mill in debt if I slip up? Nope. I know I'd slip up. The risk / reward ratio isn't good enough.
A mill isn't that much money to have, but it's a lot of money to owe. No deal.
I mean if we're just naming a price you could say something like 100m+, invest it for profit for X amount of time and either intentionally or unintentionally slip up at some point, pay back the original and be pretty nicely set with no further catch.
Sure it's clearly not within the spirit of the question, but still.
It also says you end up in debt, not owe. So it would presumably cost you everything you have and THEN the original amount.
Possible, but "in debt" can equally mean you just owe the money, it doesn't have to mean bankrupt with the debt on top of it. If you owe your credit card company 10k you're in debt 10k until you pay them, regardless of whether you have 1 million in the bank. Same if you have student loans etc.
