# I read an article a while back that said,
to live like a millionaire you need at least eight million pounds. That's no doubt gone up by now.

EDIT: Also, I wish I'd had a heavy night. I'm sick :(

# Aye,
It is true.

I believe that you would make £18,000 pounds interest a year off a million pounds. Which although I wouldn't complain about, isn't really a lot of money. I think it was Michael Winner who said what you are referring to....

# living off interest is for chumps though
you are giving free money away to the bank while at the same time watching the purchasing power of your cash slowly leak away over time and that's before it's even taxed

OH GOD, I'M PICKING UP CITY WORKER DISEASE!

"FAAAKIN GREAT CHARLIE!!"

# bollocks, even if i lived to a hundred,
that's about 13,000 a year. even given inflation, i'd need far, far less than that to live off for the first few years, maybe even decades.
that's even if i don't invest wisely, or whatever.

Be more smug. And wear stripey shirts with plain white collars.

# Haha I love those shirts.
I'm reading The Bonfire of the Vanities at the moment and it's nothing but high-powered takeovers and eighties finnese. It's awesome.

# Sweet!
You should read a book called "Ugly Americans".

It is fucking awesome!

# It is about a fella who went to Yale I think it was,
and ended up as a futures trader in Tokyo, and made the biggest trade in history, making something like $50 million for himself in an hour.

# if I was smug I could get a job in the city

christ, even the pie factory wouldn't employ me

# Which Pie Factory?
You don't want to work in the City anyway. You will just drink too much. Yeah, you will earn a fair bit fo money, but it'll all be gone in a couple of weeks. And you run the explicit risk of becoming a cunt!

but I know fuck all about the actual occasional work that gets done in city land
