yeah, I would probably have had alot more money, if i hadn't been working on perpetual motion for the last forty years. The closest that I ever came to accomplishing perpetual motion, was by observing two basics laws of physics. Law no.(1) If you hold a cat upside down and drop him, he always lands on his feet. Law no.(2) If you drop a slice of buttered bread, it always lands on the floor butter side down. So, the idea was to tie a slice of buttered bread on the cats back, buttered side up. I then held the cat in the air by his feet and dropped him. This made the buttered bread falling buttered side down, that was right, but the cat was falling with his feet up. About a foot off the ground law no. 1 took over, and the cat flipped over to land on his feet. This put the bread falling buttered side up, law no.2 then flipped the bread over to land buttered side down.Then law no. 1 reversed this, then law no.2 took over. After watching this phenomena rotating about a foot off the floor for a short period, I went to get some pulleys and belts to see if I could harness some of the free energy. On the way back I met the cat running full speed leaving home.( he probably didn't like physics) When I got in the room, sure enough the string had broken, and the bread was lying on the floor buttered side down. End of my perpetual motion career.
