Cash is Decreased when Current liability Decrease or Current asset Increase.

Depreciation or loss on sale of any asset is a non cash expense hence it will be added to net income to get operating cash

Profit on sale of asset or investment is a non cash profit and hence will be deducted from operating income.

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
