Doubt a bookie would lay the bet tbh. Especially given the fact that climbing Everest can be "bought" to a degree. Getting a crack team of guides and sherpas round you, deffo reduces the difficulty.
What about the north face of the Eiger, heard that is a tricky little climb?

In terms of the bet I think paying sherpas to carry you at any stage needs to be ruled out

Sherpas don't actually carry people lol. There has been rumours of them "short-roping " people but only on the descent and that is incredibly dangerous for both parties

Problem in laying a bet like this was touched on earlier in that so often the upside of the bet isn't the full bet amount because the bettor will probably look to buy out at some stage in first couple of years if it isn't going to happen and if it is becoming odds on you are on the hook for the full amount. Of course you could refuse to allow a buyout but most people are happy for the money in their pockets etc.

I had already pictured the expedition looking something like this, with Dubai crushing a few MTTs on the way up.
