OK, so I've been thinking about it and I've decided what my latest plan is for when I become a Hundred-Millionaire (or Billionaire if we are talking Rands, not $$). I think its important to have these plans in place, you know, so you don't waste time when it happens. So, I've come across a stupidly large amount of money, heres the plan:
- Buy a Yacht:
- Buy penthouse apartments in Melbourne and Cape Town. The one in Melbourne needs to be in the CBD, the one in Cape Town, needs to be overlooking Table Mountain and/or Table Bay, with a balcony AND a braai (Barbeque).
- Buy a Helicopter Charter company at the Waterfront, it can do its own thing, but when I want, I can get a lift in a helicopter!
Fly ALL my friends first class to Cape Town to have a massive 2-week party at my penthouse, including Game Parks, beach houses and all the rest using my helicopter. Nice.- OK, so we have recovered from the wicked weekend, all of you cool people at the party realise how awesome Cape Town is and have chosen to stay, and I put in place the last and most important part of my plan. I start an NGO, work with an established one, aimed at helping Sub-Saharan African Refugees in South Africa assimilate into life here. There are many factors here: racial tensions between the locals, companies unwilling to give jobs to foreigners because of this tension and the housing troubles, I am just scratching the surface. The way I figure it, I have left my home on my own free will and can return at any time, the majority of Zimbabweans, Congolese, Nigerians etc. have been forced to leave and can't go home. I would love to give them a hand.
So, anyone who actually made it to the bottom of this post, let me know, cus you are obviously cool enough to come to my party in Cape Town.
I like your preparedness and my plan would be very similar. I haven't been to cape town but I would probably need to purchase my own game reserve up near the Kruger Park and drop fences with it. Would also need to set myself up with a house in Melbourne too.. Hmm I would possibly build my own personal race track out in the bush too (Mpumalanga/Limpopo).
ReplyDeleteWhen reading that I thought it was all going to be 'me me me', but I really like the last point there! We run a project here where we raise money and take students from Melbourne over to Sth Africa to do community service work, and I would try and set up a base of operations in RSA for that and certainly expand on what we do... ahh the things we could do with money !
Let me know when the party is on, I'll bring some lekker boerewors!
