If you were in a competition to turn $75 in the stock market into as much as you can

and the competition ends on 12/31/2020, what would you put it in?

Obviously risk tolerance is HIGH considering it's $75 and I don't really care if I lose it all. Although I'd sure like to come out strong.

Oh how we keep ourselves busy during a political pandemic

I'd trade options. It's the only way you could significantly multiply your money.

With a no care attitude you could even make a hefty amount if you're lucky.

Buy short-dated near-the-money calls on an illiquid BS "cult stock" (like TSLA but not) and hope for a pump.

zero or infinity

I would put it all in CLIS or RLFTF.

I would probably put it all in CLIS, wait a month and then sell and flip it all to RLFTF.

I would find a company that is inventing flame throwers to mount under the hood of your car (sorry, I have been watching to much of the rioting the last hour).

I'd find some small stock that is currently trying to make a vaccine for covid, put all the money on them, then hope it hits.

I'd put it in a coffee can. I bet $75 at the end of the year would be at least 70th percentile of the participants with a decent chance of being 90+.

options would be move to make but $75 is a very small amount that wont allow you to buy a majority of decent strike prices and dates.
