The Dictator's Cash

I dreamed lots of weird dreams, and must have woke up at least a dozen times last night, but only one dream really stands out. I dreamed that I was sitting in an office with Stephen Tobias and I was telling him how I'd just inherited 100 million dollars from some evil dictator. Apparently I was one of his only blood relatives, and for whatever reason, he'd determined that giving the entire fortune to the young woman relative was the only option.

I was telling Stephen that while I had secretarial experience, I wasn't very good with finances. Why I would hire Stephen is beyond me... :-P Anyway, we were discussing what I would do with the money. I'd decided that I would take a yearly allowance of 1.2 million, and I would be a 'jet setter'. We discussed all the things that I would spend the money on: trips around the world, clothes, cars, houses. With each item I mentioned, I would have dream sequence of what it would be like.

I was actually a little disappointed to wake up...
