You can buy citizenship of Dominica, which is a Commonwealth country, for $100,000 [1].

Interesting. I wonder if the UK actually lets people bank shot their way into citizenship (or at least a long-term visa) via Dominica or if they instead deny such applications on the grounds they're based on a ruse.

Well they do for £1,000,000 [1] so they may not like the competition.
