A "Bob" refers to the British nickname for a 1 shilling (5 pence) coin; thereby "Ten Bob" is a 50 pence coin. (Archaic: there was previously a Ten Bob Note)
Mostly used in South Yorkshire, England, a "Ten Bob Millionaire" is a derogatory term someone who dresses and acts like they have a lot of money and status when in fact they have very little (i.e. Ten Bob)
They buy things to make themselves look more important than they actually are. They act like they are important and have a very high opinion of themselves, while deeming other to be below them and beneath contempt.
"Look at him with his posh suit and catching a bus. Another ten bob millionaire!"
"She's all fur coat and no knickers; just a ten bob millionaire!"

An urban legend holds that, if a student arrives on time for class, and the teacher does not arrive within ten minutes of the official class start time, then the student is entitled to skip that class for that day without receiving an unexcused absence. Few, if any, schools actually have such a rule; yet the myth endures because of the student appeal of such a rule.
The rule is not necessarily alleged to be ten minutes. The "five minute rule" or the "fifteen minute rule" have also been used in this same sense.
What the fuck, it's 9:08 and Kotter's not here yet! Two more minutes and I'm invoking the ten minute rule.
