I did the inflation calculator and it said that Uncle Billy lost the equivalent of $143k. If I was George Bailey, I would be quite upset too.

🔴 Nigel Farage’s Reform is more reliant on super-rich backers than any major party in modern British political history

What those who describe themselves as strivers fail to acknowledge is the amount of good fortune in their lives.
Whether it's being born into wealth, free education, buying a house decades ago, good health etc.
Not all hard work gets a commensurate reward.

This podcast’s excellent forensic analysis of one of my (countless🙄) favourite records successfully avoids the magic-trick paradox, actually making me appreciate it all the more…
