oh yeah, I'd need a couple of huge computer screens and one of those stupid telephones with about 300 buttons on.

oh yeah, I suppose I'd better have a bookcase made out of endangered wood containing obscure books on economic theory that I, of course, would never have read but I'd pretend I had

ok, what have I missed? :D
