Do you have any skills?

Barring that, you could try to rob a bank or something.

haha I like the bank idea, but was thinking about doing this legally.

I am currently studying computer science and multimedia, I can currently in program c++, html, java, action script.

I am also quite fit. Have experience in gym, squash, personal training.

Prostitution? But even that isn't going to hit $2.5 mil in three years. More likely, you'll need to make all 2.5 mil in your third year, and spend the first two building yourself up.

You could try doing some tricky loophole pyramid scheme stuff using cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin? But that's also pretty scummy.

Good idea, scummy, But is it legal?

What's the top going rate for a kidney?

I don't think you can get more than 100k for one, and even that sounds high. You'd have to find 25 people with two working kidneys, which is almost definitely going to take more than three years (and a lot of ice).
