Cash crisis!

Beccy Ghessen is interviewed by Phil Klein.

When I asked Beccy about the easiest way to make a million pounds, she said she would need either to win the lottery or to cut back on food!听
She also saw the possibility of earning a million pounds by getting a high paid job, be it as a banker, or maybe a psychologist.听 In any case, 鈥淎 job where people would expect a lot of you.鈥

A wad of toy money

She saw the possibility of becoming a television psychologist 鈥 like Dr Phil 鈥 and earning a million that way.听 It wouldn鈥檛 happen overnight, but it would be possible eventually.
In terms of how she would spend the money, she decided that she would buy a car, a Mitsubishi Lancer V11, and a motorbike, as well as giving money to charity and looking after her family.

She thought that the money would go quite quickly, in perhaps a year or two. Her priority would be her family, to take care of all their needs, which she imagined would cost her in the region of 拢300,00 to 拢400,000.

Phil Klein is interviewed by Becky Ghessen.

Phil鈥檚 in his thirties, and his passions are writing and performing 鈥 particularly comedy.听
The question I put to Phil was 鈥榟ow would you come up with a million pounds?鈥 He dismissed crime and robbing a bank but said his biggest chance would be to write a successful book.听 If got his hands on that sort of cash he would like really love to travel, to America in particular but also Australia and Asia.听
