While most of us mere mortals barely know what a £50 note feels like, Tamara Ecclestone lies naked surrounded by oodles of them.
The model stripped off to pose for iconic photographer Tyler Shields in a series of snaps that ooze filthy rich.
As well as writhing around on a bed laden with £1million, the 27-year-old also alludes to her own wealth by pretending to iron the wad of cash - even though she's probably never ironed in her life.

Tamara posed for the provocative shoot to coincide with the launch of her new reality series Billion $$$ Girl, which will air on Channel 5.

No actually.
Bernie made his money from scratch, by being a great businessman and seeing an opportunity where nobody else had stepped in. Back in the early 80's, TV stations did not have good coverage of Formula 1 motor races (most were not broadcast at all), and so Bernie got the right to market this sport to the TV stations, setting up deals for the whole season coverage. Also obtaining the right to get a percentage of trackside advertising etc...
Money perfectly legitimately made.
Tamara on the other hand, is just a spoilt rich kid.

I can also promise you that once you get into the millionaires club they help each other succeed in every way they can.. You never know when you will need a favor or a good stock tip, or a loan from a banker friend at 0% interest...
But yeah I'm sure he is one of the few that made it there above board...

Really, he probably is.
Everything that has ever been written about Bernie Ecclestone has him a very tough and shrewd businessman, being the most awsomeest negotiator in the whole universe.
As an example, one of his tasks is to negotiate the price that race tracks around the world will pay in order to be able to host a Formula 1 race.
This message thread from a motor racing forum described how, in almost every case, the deal has ended up massively in favour of himself.
He has negotiated deals that work out, in total, hundreds of millions of dollars a year over and above what they are actually worth.
And thats just ONE of the things he does.
He's also one of the few people in the world that has been able to rip hundreds of millions of dollars FROM the big banks (they hate him) after doing some great TV rights deals. Complex, but the keywords are SLEC, Kirch, CVC, Bayerische Landesbank, JP Morgan and Lehman Brothers.
Bernie comes out the winner. $$$$
