How to Get Rich Quick

You learn something every week from the 6 o’clock news, and this week I have learnt how to make a few thousand dollars very easily.

You will need:-
1 Woman’s handbag
1 Mobile phone
2 Drunken rugby players (if one of them happens to be a much loved former captain of the All Blacks then bonus dollars)

Step One – Take handbag with mobile phone in it to pub where rugby players are getting pissed after a match (bonus dollars if said match was the Super 14 final they just lost).

Step Two – Stand around close by and wait for first rugby player (player A) to get abusive patrons.

Step Three – Don’t put up a fight when former All Black captain (player B) snatches your handbag and whacks player A over the head with it, causing player A to burst out into tears and breaking cell phone.

Step Four – Retrieve bag and wait a couple of days for media storm to emerge.

Step Five – Sell bag and broken phone of trademe.co.nz. Show up on Campbell live (news programme) and bring media attention to auction.

And just like that you have enough money to buy some very nice things. Think this sound rather absurd? Well, this morning that handbag was going for NZ$21,500.
