In a way, the most robust thing to do is probably just plain a lot of work: don't limit yourself to public markets. Buy (or start) a dry cleaning business in Manchester, and pocket the modest profits. Choose line(s) of business and jurisdiction(s) to suit your tastes--there are surprisingly few restrictions on foreigners starting or owning private businesses in a lot of countries if you stay away from finance and news.

Pick a country and start browsing!
They even have a category for companies with management in place.
