Another aspect of this question that hasn't been explored is that of scale. What I mean by this is that one can do things with $100K or more that are impossible to do with less capital. For example, buy four container loads of e-Bikes, solar panels, screwdrivers, socks or whatever and go sell them. I think the error in some of the comments is in thinking conventionally and equating being aggressive with gambling.
