A month, two months, three months for 100k?
How many years for a million?

Re: What would you do for a million quid?
Did you see the UK TV programme written by Charlie Brooker (who really is one sick puppy) about a Prime Minister who had to shag a pig to keep a much-loved princess alive? Part of his Black Mirror series.
He may be old now, but one million would be enough to do Robert Redford.

How about John McCririck (sp)?

GBP 1M isn't really that much. In real terms it's reducing by the day!

Oh you...
It is a lot of money, not enough to retire but certainly enough to set a wise person up for life.
Seriously? Jail is my idea of hell, I would rather do a lot of things than spend time in prison.

You have to be realistic. Its 1,000,000 sterling - You don't get that for a month. I did 2 weeks, found it quite good for the soul, met people I would never meet (In deeper shit than me) Detoxed, ate camel for the 1st time and had free cigarettes.

Re: What would you do for a million quid?
There is nothing in life that restricts you liek jail.
I have to be in work all day, but I sometimes enjoy it and can make the time go quick and earn soem dollar if I work hard.
I can't afford right now to just fly home and see my buddies, so that's a bit restrictive, but I don't mind, I like being here and they can come and visit.
The only thing I see as truly a restriction is jail (I know it sounds stupid), but it's a horrific thought to not be able to leave or do anything for X weeks / months / years. I'd be a gibbering, crying wreck. Hence why i'm such a law-abider.

You do get AED 100 a day taken off your fine though. When they bang up the poor Asians etc that's the only way they can afford to get out. If they get a AED 6000 fine its 60 days.
My Fine was AED 30,000 that's a lot of days if you cant pay.

I'd continue doing my current job for 10 years. Depressing really when you add up what you've earned and look at what you've got left over.

Re: What would you do for a million quid?
For this sum I would agree to spend a week in Benidorm with a group of British tourists. No penetration though. That would be extra.
