£35.4m going spare....

Ah, and I remember why I had this impression - basically, I added up the
both the tax plus health insurance and pension payments and suddenly it
didn't look to good compared to the UK.

Of course there's slight difference if you end up getting more than
50-odd quid a week for your pension contribution...

 

And if they pay 30% higher than the equivalent job in the UK office...

Oh?

Everything I looked at ever[1] paid about 30% *less* than the similar
job in the UK. Hence it wasn't very attractive to me.

[1] Including a job I interviewed for at Swissair. A month or two before
they went bankrupt...

 

"I'm gonna buy a walk-in humidor!"

 

Open a clinic to research into a cure for nymphomania.

 

Seriously, it could only have happened to you ;-)

 

Heh. They didn't offer me the job as the agent hadn't quite communicated
my salary requirements and they were under the impression that I'd be
willing to negotiate downwards.

I wasn't.

 

*Snort*

 

OK:

Flying lessons. Lots of flying lessons. Then buy:

1. A decent private jet. Say £5 million worth.

2. A Spitfire. Another million. Oh, and a top-notch glider. Another
million.

3. A bloody nice ski chalet wiv all hot and cold running mod cons. £3
million.

4. A sort of ditto to 3, but a summer villa. Another £3 million.

5. A Vincent Black Shadow. Paid out of the interest on the interest.

6. A Bentley. As above.

7. Sailing lessons. Lots of sailing lessons.

8. A bloody nice wooden sailing boat. Big. Another £3 million.

9. A million quids' worth of wine.

10. Invest the rest to help with the upkeep on the boat and aircraft.

 

****. Ginged.

 

He exhibits flashes of pure genius from time to time, doesn't he?

 

****. Ginged.[/QUOTE]

heh, but only a bit.

 

Fund research on how to resurect the dead and then start a all-fascist
bare-knuckle boxing ring, for pay-per-view TV, leading up the grand final of
the winner of Hitler Vs Franco against the winnner of Mussolini Vs Mother
Teresa.

With the change I'd pay for Natalie Portman to clean my house ... nude. And
while she was doing that I'd go to the pub ... and buy it.

Or something.

Well I'm just comparing my salary with other folks doing pretty much
the same job in the same team in the UK. Maybe I just got lucky and
they accidentally offerred me far too much money went I went from
contract to permie...

Heh.

So you had to start from nothing like the rest of the world then?
Quite right too. It really pisses me off when stupid, lazy, ignorant
and unemplyable people cruise through life just becase their family
has money. Get out and fucking work for it, you sponging bastards.
Like what real people like me had to!

Leave the country.

 

No, that's the point, y'see ... I'd be rich enough to pay for her to do the
cleaning nekkid and *not care*.

"Yeah, that Natalie Portman's back at my place in the buff, but I can pay to
see that any time I like, so I decided to come to the pub instead".

You just weren't born to handle wealth, were you?

I'd keep her clothes on, the bitch is so painfully skinny she would
disappear if she wuz nekkid.

 

Hoh yes. Only 1 mill probably won't do it any more.

Nah. Lagonda LG45.

 

I think you need to add:

11. Several new livers.
