If I arrive in a Schengen country on a one-way ticket, what kind of
proof do I need that I am solvent enough to buy a ticket out?


The problem might arise before you even get there, when you want to
check in for the flight. We had that problem once going the other way
(Europe-Mexico) and the checkin clerk said we needed a return ticket in
case we were refused entry and the airline would have to fly us back.
Just following orders of course.


You could just by a full-fare refundable one way ticket back and then
cancel it for a full refund as soon as you arrived.


Which is what we did. You just need to be fluid enough G
