🎇 Happy US publication day to A FABULOUS DEBT! 🎇
The working title of the book was The Greatest Show on Earth: An Affectionate Biography of the Bond Market, which probably sums up my feelings about the subject.

The rise of index vigilantes ft.trib.al/DjW5Rkw
The French revolution of 1789-1799 was a bloody fight for liberty, equality and fraternity. But it was also a battle over money. 💸
In part deux of our series, The Story of Money tackles the transformation of France’s money system as it descended into war, political turmoil and the Reign of Terror. youtu.be/S3BRFhpb0Ok?si=2Uy3…

a truly outstanding review effort here from @RobinWigg
Oh OK, we’ll write something about the new Truss book ft.trib.al/VQY2g2s
We weren’t going to write anything about the new Liz Truss book. But Alphaville is a customer-centric blog that cares passionately about our key stakeholders. ft.com/content/6d347f2c-b5da…

Fabulous line-up of beautiful charts that are still open for bidding. And remember, the proceeds go to charity! ft.com/content/95e1b194-7dab…
My work here is done.
(seriously though, if you’ve read and liked A Fabulous Debt) then please rate and even leave a review on Goodreads, Amazon, Waterstones, B&N etc, it is very helpful for the book, and incredibly gratifying for me to read on a purely personal level).

Excited and delighted to celebrate all things bonds related with @RobinWigg and his new book in London at Daunt’s yesterday. GO FORTH AND READ!

This blog will always accept hyper-inflated tender. 🫡
The @FTAlphaville dataviz exhibition was sold out, so I bribed my way in with a ten-billion-pengő note from Hungary, 1946. Cash is still king.
A reminder that I’m at Daunt’s Marylebone branch today at 3pm to sign copies of A Fabulous Debt (or Trillions fwiw) for anyone who fancies it.
Jeanna’s book is fascinating and important.
Big week for super-famous Irish authors
