Someone I knew in Hong Kong researched this, and he said that if you can deposit $x in a U.S. bank, INS will give you an "investor's visa".

I forgot what was x was exactly, but it was six figures, IIRC.

Then again, that was a while ago (pre 9/11, when some immigration rules were changed), so you may want to confirm that program still exists.

Ok interesting stuff - thanks for the replies. Does anyone know the guys from auctomatic post on these pages at all?

Just send an email to founders at their domain name.

Ask the founders of auctomatic; they're currently doing it.
