his money:

* Buy 233,346,297 copies of Microsoft Windows 95.

* Buy 1,680,000,000 copies of his own book, buy more with his
royalties from those sales, continuing the cycle and easily the
best selling author of all time.

* Make Hanson the most successful musicians of all time by
buying 3,529,411,765 copies of "Middle of Nowhere."

* If he wanted to challenge George Lucas (worth only $2
billion), he could make 227 sequels to "Waterworld," or 35,000
sequels to "Sling Blade."

* At the median donation for spending a night in the White
House, he coulds tay in the Lincoln Bedroom for 46,300 years.

* If he wanted to go on a killing spree in Los Angeles County,
at the rate that Simpson was charged, he could kill 3,360
people and pay all his attorney fees and punitive damages.

* At the rate of 1/2 ounce per $27 million, he could pay Mike
Tyson to eat 1/5 of Evander Holyfield.

* He could fly from Seattle to Paris and back on Air France
45,258,621 times.

* If he wanted to go to a local baseball game, he could buy
Seattle Mariners season tickets, all of them, for 411 years,
and with his spare change could buy the team and the Kingdome.

* At Denny's, he could buy a "Grand Slam Slugger Breakfast" for
9,150,326,797 people.

* If he couldn't get service, he could buy every man, woman and
child in China a Big Mac Extra Value Meal, as long as no one
"Super Sizes."

* If they preferred, he could buy 17 billion packages of Top
Ramen noodles.

* He must like coffee, and could buy over 6 billion pounds of
French roast at his local Starbuck's.

* Speaking of a cup of coffee, he could support one of those
Sally Struther's foreign kids for 113,341,969 years. Perhaps
what he need to spend money on most is a new pair of glasses
and some hair conditioner.
