The rich get richer and the poor stay poor, right? There's never been a better point in case than this, then! He of the floppy hair, HUGH GRANT, looks set to make a profit of over USD $30 million on an Andy Warhol painting of screen legend Elizabeth Taylor, when it goes under the hammer on Tuesday.

And to think he only paid a measly USD $4 million for it in 2001, at an auction held at Sotheby's in London.

Grant has decided to sell the canvas, entitled Liz, which will be snapped up by the highest bidder on Tuesday at Christie's in New York.

He's not letting on why he needs the money, but if that Music and Lyrics film is anything to go by, perhaps he's saving up to retire?
