There is a huge jetstream if you go too high though, that kind of stops you in your tracks. Just to be clear, I'm talking 8 days for the entire game, not just the first level. Do you mean from the very very start? Or once you have finished it and you start again with all the upgrades? From the very, very start, starting with zero upgrades. 
Really?
Wowser.

It helps to get crazy lucky on the first throw and really lucky on the second. Then you're in the money.

I'm writing at the moment. It's the perfect sort of simple mindless task to keep my hands and eyes occupied while I mull over a problem.
