The only ways you can fight climate change in any meaningful way with 10k also involve going to prison
More likely dead (shot to death by cops)
I think that depends on your skill, i.e. good planning, and obviously execution. If you're really good, you don't even get caught, although that might help politically as we currently see with Mangione
10k is cutting it thin… the Accuracy International ACSR is just a hair under $10k USD… and that is before taxes. Then you need the 1,000-10,000 rounds of ammo for training before you become good enough to start taking out card-carrying members of the Parasite Class from a kilometre-plus distance.
Now granted, you can go a lot cheaper than that, but accuracy and range will suffer. Remember, you want to be far enough away that you can reliably pack up and sanitize the scene before you leave.
Alternatively, swarming AI drones in the hundreds, with on-board explosive packages, would allow you to deploy from abandonable emplacements that can loiter for many hours to even days. No-one is going to question a cube van that sits in a paid spot for a week, at least until it’s roof opens up and a thousand tiny drones with facial recognition take off and take out a few oligarchs.
But honestly, you’re likely talking a few tens of thousands for that scenario, at minimum. I would likely bank at it being in the low hundreds of thousands for a truly effective and difficult-to-counter deployment.
correct

3 meals and no rent? Doesn't sound too bad.
Oh there's rent. Most US prisons charge per diem rates for housing, and they charge for many "services" and they charge literal extortion rates. Prisoners leave US prisons deeeeeply in debt
I wouldn't even want to be in an Austrian luxury prison. There's a reason why people have went as far as dying while fighting for their freedom, it's one of our most precious possessions.
Freedom outside of prison is still a delusion. You are a servant of the rich elite.
