Six guys throw in on a very expensive/classic car such as 1965 Ferrari 250 LM Berlinetta with the intention of fighting to the death for it. This is a fully contractual agreement between the parties. The winner of the brawl win’s the car and get’s it for a 1/6th of the value.

Another way would be not to pay any money and still take a car, any car. |
|
| |
Yet another way would be to become a "prize-fighter". Develop some skill against opponents, generate revenues from ticket sales/viewing rights and endorsements, and use the money raised to purchase 6/6 of an asset. |

Tontine - I've learnt something. |

Some things are worth dying for and brave people have risked and lost their lives doing these things; It takes courage to imperil your life for the right reasons. |
|
| |
Courage and stupidity only look the same to the stupid. |
|
| |
If you want a car that badly then you are stupid. |
|
| |
You could just find someone with a nice car and kill them for it. Your total murders are reduced to 1, while your risk of dying goes from 5/6 down to... whatever the odds are of the person defending themselves successfully. Much lower. |
|
| |
Alternatively, you can just keep doing what you are doing for longer, and buy the whole thing. Or get a loan and buy it now. Or buy a busted up one and fix it up. Or spend a fraction of the money on a really, really nice bicycle. |
|
| |
Also, why not fight to the... not-death? It preserves all of the opportunity while very significantly reducing the risks. |
