Proud Canadian living in #LdnOnt. (see banner above)
Interested in SF, science, games both video and tabletop, a little bit of finance & economics, and alas US and Canadian politics because I have to. Used to write until I went broke trying.

There's an SF novel from the 60s called "The Cosmic Computer" about a small group exploiting belief that a sufficiently advanced computer will solve a planet's economic problems & put the money where it actually would help. Very dated in places but the investor gullibility is remarkably on point.
