The long read: Terry Ball – renowned shoe salesman, friend to former mafiosi – has resolved to spend his last years finding ways to cheat authorities he feels have cheated him. His greatest ruse? A tax-dodging snail empire

So this is a bit weird. The Guardian has done a big ‘Who owns the UK media?’ graphic that includes all national titles + Unherd, Statesman etc.
But *not* the Observer. 🧐
Cock-up? Or implicit acknowledgment that we still don’t actually know who *does* own the Observer.

Working your whole life to enjoy a few years when you're close to death is one of the biggest scams nobody talks about.
You spend your healthiest years making someone else rich. Sitting in traffic. Stuck in meetings.
You'll never get those years back. Time is the one asset you can't buy more of.
