Hah, I like that.
They're saying a painting on the telly is going for sale that sold for £65m this time last year. This means it has cost someone (excluding interest and resale values, this is for fun rather than science)

- £139,784.94 a day
- £5824.37 a hour (I bet some hours went by where nobody saw it)
- £97.07 a second (probably a few seconds went by where nobody saw it)

It is 162 cm × 130 cm, which is 21,060cm. If it would hold its value and all that and was cut up into postage stamps, each one would cost £3,086.41 each.... making a stamp-book of 100 of them having the value of the average house (not flat, but house) in London.

A bottle of Yop, 500ml, in my local shop is £1.19 when it's not on special offer.
So you can get 54,621,848.73 bottles, or 27,310,924.36 liters. An olympic swimmingpool has 3,002,375.46 litres. That means you can fill up just over 9 olympic sized swimmingpools with Yop.

That's a lot of Yop

An average human stomach can hold 4ltrs
That means it could fill 6,827,731.09 people, that's the entire population of london.
