This may sound crazy but... Take one of your interests, see if there is any part of it you like to work in and use some of your redundency mula to get some training in that sector...

eg: Interest: Porn
Job: Camera Man/actor
Trading Needed: Watch more porn/penis enlargement

You could run an internet site that finds and kills pointless celebrities.

Use the redundancy payment as seed capital to take a hit out on Kerry Katona.

This will bring you, fame, gratis and they'd never find a jury on the planet that would convict you.

I have a list, you can borrow mine to get you started.
