My first million

[EternalOptimist]

I had a brilliant idea yesterday, which should put me on the path to my first million.
I was eating some monkey nuts and putting the shells in a tesco bag, when I noticed some bits of shell on my trousers. When I checked the floor, omg , it looked like a troop of orang utans had been having a tea party at my desk.

Hence my brain wave. Some sort of electro magnetic device that polarises the husks of monkey nuts, causing them to become drawn to a central 'magno-bag' from whence they can be easily placed into the tesco carrier. The clever bit - the frequency is set so that other objects are not affected, so your paper clips and pens remain undisturbed on your desk.

You do realise that you cannot now patent that brilliant concept since you've disclosed it?

I'll have the prototype ready by tomorrow afternoon, then it's off to China for Zeity...

damn that scaley bugger

[ChimpMaster]

That's Orangutanist.

Surely lots of people here have already earned their first million, over the last 10-20 years?

I don't give a hoot about anyone elses million, only mine.

HTH.

I am working on my second million.

It is often said that the second one is easier than the first so I decided to crack on with the second million for now and go back to the first one later.

Too late, my company owns the patent to do this with droplets of ink...
