34YO. Inheriting 500k. How can I turn it into 2.5m+ in 10 years or less?

I am assuming entrepreneurship is a good answer. I'm also assuming house flipping is a good answer.

I receive about 250k from a 401k. Another 150k to 200k from selling the house. Maybe another 10ish from selling the cars. Also another 50k from the checking account. This is from a family member passing.

The house mortgage is currently 147k. It is worth 450k to 550k. That is a lot of equity. The payment is 1,300 and interest rate is 3.750%. My brother wants to sell it and get the equity so we are selling it.

For me being 34 and not having a skill and working for Ubereats and Grubhub, this is a life changing amount of money.

What would you do to turn 500k into 2.5M+ in 10 years or less?
