I'm trying to transnate this joke I posted in the joke thread into Swedish:

Ingvar Kamprad, owner and founder of IKEA, is apparently the wealthiest person in the world. He will now use this money to buy some decent furniture.

Here's what I have:

Ingvar Kamprad, ägare och gjutare av IKEA, är tydligen personen mest förmögen i världen. Nu, han vill köpa några anständig möbler.

Originally, I had the second sentence as:

Han vill köpa några anständig möbler med hans pengar.

but I think it's funnier this way.

Since I have nothing else to do, here is how it would have been in Norwegian

Ingvar Kamprad, eier og gründer av IKEA, er tydeligvis den rikeste personen i verden. Nå skal han kjøpe noen annstendige møbler.
