x3m started to get laggy the last year/year and a half imo.
jokes besides. if money aint the important part n u/someofurfriends got the necessary skills just buy/rent a complete server and setup et there for yourself. for one server it might be a bit more expensive (counting setupfees in), but u can install way more than instance of et on the typical systems they rent nowadays. www.manitu.de is the best hoster ive come in touch with so far when its bout support, reliability and connection.
