If Musk put his money into a basic UK savings account paying 4%, this is the interest he would earn:

Per year: £14.4 billion
Per day: £39.45 million
Per hour: £1.64 million

Just the interest = 370,000 average UK earners.

And he doesn't work interest.

And he wants to pay less tax.
It’s hard to imagine the vast fortune that is Elon’s net worth currently estimated at $476.4billion or £360billion. If it helps, someone on an average salary who wanted to save up this much would have to had started saving in the Miocene epoch 12 million years ago. (assuming they saved every penny)

Someone, please, put me out of my misery. Scott Bessent reminds me of someone and I can’t place who. It’s driving me insane.
I’m thinking it’s maybe an actor who played a snidy, snivelling piss-weasel type character in a comedy series like Spin City, or maybe something like Dallas.
Please help.

Love or loathe the BBC, recent events have put the UK's journalistic sovereignty in peril.

X is a radicalisation machine that pushes people into angry extremism, peddles disinformation and conspiracy theories and is run by an egomaniacal lunatic who threatens civil war on our streets and wants to trash our democracy.
It does nothing but harm.
So, yes. Government should stop using it.
🔉What dangers does X pose to our democracy? And should the government stop using it?

Good to hear yesterday from @sundersays.bsky.social and @petergeoghegan.bsky.social on the immense risk of X as it ignores legal obligations and its owner tries to influence UK politics.

Well if the photo I’ve seen is the real ‘I’m a Celebrity’ lineup, I am now officially retired from the human race. I usually know a couple of them, but this year, not one.

Bugger. I sold my Bank of America stock on Friday. If I’d waited ‘til today, I’d have pocketed another $100. Ah well. I‘d waited nearly 20 years to get back into profit after the arse fell out of them. I daresay Martin Lewis won’t be coming to me for any tips.

Well, opening day of the pheasant-shooting season has passed successfully. In addition, we celebrated my brother’s birthday as well as World Vegetarian Day, and also my renewed bank card came into force.
I am spent. A husk.
Tomorrow, we go again.
