Money

It doesn't grow on trees. It makes the world go 'round. It's not everything.

People without money come up with the daftest things.

Richard Branson, Chairman of Virgin Group, doesn't sit at home, feeling glad about how rich he is, in spirit. He sits at home on his chair made of bank-notes and eats pound coins like they were mint imperials!

Bill Gates, former CEO of Microsoft, gets showered in the water caused by compressing fifteen thousand dollars in one-dollar notes. The machine used to compress this money enough to extract showering-water, costs two million dollars to run. He showers twice daily.

There's even an entire country where everybody has millions of dollars! Of course, that country is Zimbabwe, so that's not a good thing... But if they ever need a tourism boom, just call on the Quadrillionaires (in Zimbabwe) Bill Gates and Richard Branson to inject some cash into the country.

For the rest of us, who make little-to-no money doing basic, everyday jobs... There's always the Lottery.
