the next best alternative bundle of goods and services that could be provided.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost can be described as the cost of what was given up in order to carry out a particular activity. It is the next best alternative bundle of goods and services that could be provided. It is also known as implicit cost and it is used in calculating economic profit.

Economic profit = Accounting profit - Opportunity cost

The monetary cost expressed in reals (Brazilian currency) is the explicit cost.

Explicit cost is the actual cost incurred in carrying out an activity.

Accounting profit = Total revenue - Explicit cost

I hope my answer helps you

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!
