    Get an icy cold mud and sit down, then ring the boss and tell him where the job can be shoved, without lube

    Buy Tasmania and turn it into a theme park and with the money left over I would buy Bunnings and Carba-Tec. Save the rest for a rainy day.

    Clearly you couldn't handle it then, and you'd be broke again in no time flat. A true squillionaire would use some of the new money to hire top notch advice to get a bigger pension.
