We are assuming that you know that the CPU is the Central Processing Unit and not an actual
PC so you would need a degree in computer science, electronics, and a myriad of other things that might take as much as 15 years to complete.
Inside the CPU are thousands of circuits too small to see with the human eye without a really good magnifying glass. The CPU also has to be manufactured in a clean environment, workers have to wear protective clothing and masks so to avoid any sort of human contact, and that it takes about 30 people to put one together.
If you want to try to build one, you will need about 2 oz of gold as that is the main connectivity element of the cpu, dust free clothing, a really good magnifying glass, and knowledge of computer sciences and other things.
Edit - You might also need a soldering iron (for melting the gold to form the connections and some sort of baked clay to hold all that stuff together for the final product.

Things to learn:
Slot types... it will never work if it doesn't fit into a MOBO.
Cache... Built in memory for th CPU
Cores... Hard to explain.
GHZ... How well is the built in clock
That is all i could think of right now. I tried building my own RAM slot but it failed. A CPU is even harder to work on.

That is one 0.33 of the chart and it's outrageous. Americans only proposal well being care was tough to get. Now to wade by means of the bureaucratic method shall be intellect boggling and most americans will give up earlier than they may be able to study to navigate the procedure. The expense of the well being Care is mind boggling. Possibly that is the major agenda.
