enough that i could live comfortably and do what i wished to do without being bored during the day. would be harder to occupy time without a job, and so would need enough that would allow me social interaction and things to do and still live to a comfortable standard.

but 2 million might manage it, would have to be careful though so would still end up topping up with a small business doing what i wanted to rather than what i have to do.

Bliar & Clown have cost this country considerably more, and for some reason they haven't resigned...

"This month the exchange's computer systems failed to cancel a mistaken order to sell 610,000 shares for 1 yen, instead of one share for 610,000 yen.

The trade in shares of recruitment firm J-Com was done by Mizuho Securities and dented the reputation of the exchange."

Maybe he now owns J-Com!
