達米恩和安東尼這對小兄弟，各自有著不同的打算……

某日清晨，有著虔誠信仰的達米恩向上帝禱告時，一個裝滿英鎊的旅行袋竟然從天而降，砸壞了紙箱隱修院，來到了達米恩的腳邊。達米恩急忙向哥哥安東尼報告，最後兩人決定在即將來臨的「歐元日」、英鎊即將失效之前，把錢花光光。

達米恩滿腦子都是崇高的聖徒作為，希望能將來自上帝的恩惠用來幫助窮人，哥哥安東尼卻希望能在英鎊失效之前把錢花完，並且利用這筆錢達到錢滾錢的目的。哥哥帶著弟弟在學校裡花錢不眨眼地買下同學的玩具，最後竟然在操場上創造出經濟奇蹟——人人有錢，但最終導致通貨膨脹。

隨著時間一分一秒流逝，這筆鉅款的來源終於被揭開。正當遺失這筆錢的人一步步逼近，小兄弟倆的作為引起越來越多人的覬覦。

The bestselling novel from Frank Cottrell Boyce - screenwriter and writer of the London 2012 Olympics Opening Ceremony - now with a fantastic new cover to celebrate its ten year anniversary

Two brothers, Damian and Anthony, are unwittingly caught up in a train robbery during Britain's countdown to joining the Euro. Suddenly finding themselves with a vast amount of cash, the boys have just one glorious, appalling dilemma - how to spend it in the few days before it becomes worthless. Torn between the vices of buying a million pizzas and the virtues of ending world poverty, the boys soon discover that being rich is a mug's game. For not only is the clock ticking - the bungling bank-robbers are closing in too.

Pizzas or World Peace, what would you choose?
