PAID WHILE YOU READ
The four holdings in the hoard have declared £37,379 a year between them. This page divides that rate down to the second and counts it out loud. It is the same number as everywhere else on the site — just moving.

HOW THIS IS COUNTED
THE RATE IS REAL
£37,379 a year is the declared annual income of the four positions in the hoard, at the rates their boards have actually announced. It is the same figure the ledger and the freedom date are built on. Change a holding and this number changes with it.
THE COUNTING IS A CONVENIENT FICTION
Dividends do not trickle. They land in lumps, on payment dates, four to twelve times a year, and some of them get cut. The machine takes the annual rate and divides it by the seconds in a year, which is a useful way to feel a number and a useless way to plan a month.
NOTHING HERE IS COMPOUNDING
The reels do not reinvest, and they do not grow. They roll at a flat rate until the ledger says otherwise. What the pile does when the money is put back to work is the freedom date's job — currently Jul 2029.
THE POUND IS THE HONEST ONE
The ledger is in pounds. The dollar chip converts the display at the live GBP/USD rate from frankfurter.dev, which is a snapshot of one day's exchange rate and nothing the goblin has any control over.
THE SHARE CARD
Paste this page into anything that unfurls links and that is what shows up. It is a drawing, not a screenshot of the reels above — the whole set is built by scripts/og.mjs, and none of them carry a figure that could go stale.
