While reflecting on the events of the last year while I write the math for 2012, I recalled a detail that could also be considered a statistic. Several different times during 2011 different people from different places in the world and from different backgrounds and in some cases having nothing more in common with each other than the fact that they are human, said this same exact thing to me, in the same exact way and in the same exact context:
“Between 2002 and 2006, everyone was rich.”
Spooky, isn’t it?
