An AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3990X is 2.3M MIPS. If you were born prior to ~1977, you are currently able to do this, according to https://incoherency.co.uk/blog/stories/world-computing-power.html https://incoherency.co.uk/blog/stories/world-computing-power...
If born after, you still can but you need a lot more money.
