"Cheap" and "64GiB of RAM" are incompatible concepts in laptops.
There is no earthly reason you should need to carry a machine like that anyway. If for some reason you need something so equipped, get yourself a cloud instance and connect to it. That's how you save money.
If you're stuck working in a completely isolated environment, then work it into the contract. That's the cost of being on an island.
