I have 2 messages in my junk folder - 1 from Mary Mbogo of Liberia and 1 from princess Anita Justin Yak of Sudan – I was a bit disappointed at first that they weren’t love letters as I am longing to do the wind-up thing and threaten to go over and marry them. But hey! Mary says that she has an inheritance of US$8.500,000.00 but doesn’t say what my percentage of this I will get for helping her. Princess Anita doesn’t say how much her fortune is but promises me 20% - GCSE Maths question: which offer shall I take up and why?
Here are the letters in a table for comparison purposes:
