It was from Merry Wives of Windosr.
Why, then the world's mine oyster,
Which I with sword will open.
I will retort the sum in equipage.
Pistol was saying he would use his sword (violence) to get his fortune, like one breaks open an oyster to find a pearl.
It has since come to mean general opportunity for the taking. I like Shakespeare's use of the metaphor more.

The Shakespeare meaning makes more sense than "you have opportunities". The average person is going to kill the oyster to extract the pearl. They are not going to wait it out.
It is a dumb expression to use, I think.
