I forgot to note some sad news that came out just after Christmas – pork belly futures are no more.
If anything symbolised, for us young ones the fact that we would never really understand how to make lots of money, it was the fact that pork belly futures were simply incomprehensible.
But they have not ceased to be because we have taken to heart the warnings that bacon causes cancer – just the opposite: we like bacon too much & the market has levelled out, isn’t seasonal any more.
Or something. I still don’t understand
