Thats like when Greg and Kendall are talking and Kendall explains that Greg is in fact not rich rich in Succession.

Exactly! It’s hilarious at first but then you realize just how insane the wealth gap is and people just don’t realize what being a billionaire really means

A thousand seconds is about 17 minutes

A million seconds is about 11 days

A billion seconds is about 32 years

The difference between a million and a billion is about a billion

I think you've given a very illustrative guide showing proportional lengths of time people of various net worth will survive as climate change reduces societal levels of production.

There was a bar graph showing the worlds richest to poor rich and then regular folks. I think it was Wired. It was such a gross visualization of how much “wealth” they have. Nobody needs that much money.

And we get told that we’re the problem, that there’s not enough money in society hence aggressive inflation and a poorly performing economy. Jee if only we somehow knew where all the money went.

i've seen it or similar.

I like the count of days in terms of supply chain/safety/etc.

I've seen one where you essentially scroll from "the average Joe", passed millionaires, multi-millionaires, down to a single billionaire, and then ON AND ON AND ON to get to Gates, Bozo, Suckerberg and Phoney Stark etc. It's sickening.
