Hi,


I think the trick here is that you become a relatively low level millionaire
rather than billionaire and avoid excessive return to the top of the
organisation - only what is necessary / reasonable.

It sounds like you have more of the necessary enthusiasm, gumption, etc. :)
(something tells me this would probably be something of a pretty large
job! - lol).


Best wishes,

P.s. We could always leave it another 50, 100, 250 years and see the reality
of the statistics on long-term costs etc., depreciation on these assets and
probably then enjoy BT telling us how much it costs to maintain fibre
instead.
