I have lost everything, and I'm not sure how to continue. This summer I invested $17,500 (six months salary and my entire life savings) into ornamental gourd futures, hoping to capitalize on this lucrative emerging industry. After watching a video about Vincent Kosuga and his monopoly on onions, I decided I'd try to do something similar with another vegetable. I did some research and found out many agricultural forecasters expected this year's gourd yield would be far smaller than the past, due to deteriorating soil conditions in central Mexico and a warmer-than-average spring. At first, demand soared around Halloween and prices skyrocketed, but the gourd bubble burst on November 12th. Unfortunately, the coronavirus caused a massive drop-off in demand due to fewer families decorating their tables for thanksgiving, and prices plummeted. I had invested early enough that I thought I would still be fine, but then on the morning of December 2nd, a new email in my inbox caused my stomach to turn into a pretzel. The massive gourd shipment from Argentina, scheduled for early March, had arrived. I was planning on selling off my futures right before this, in February, but this ruined everything. To top it off, the gourds in this shipment were absolutely gargantuan, some topping 4 pounds each, causing the price-per-pound to drop like an anchor into the range of 6 cents per pound. I am ruined.

Ohhhh man. You wanna know why the moneychangers were in the temple (before Jesus lost his shit on them)? It's because it was the LAW that you had to donate if you were passing through town. Not everyone carries the local currency, so to pay your, like, visitor tax, you had to get it converted to the local currency. They were in the temple so people didn't have to go halfway across town, then carry local dollars all the way back to the temple.
Fucking Pharisees, making y'all take your anger out on the people trying to make it easier on you, or tryin' to get you to blame the Romans for killing your teen heartthrob. It's always been the local elites playing "let's you and him fight."
