The Discount Interest Rant. Calculating the Present Value of Future Disaster. Wednesday, March 20, 2013. In Which I Apologize to Lord Palmerston and the Parliament of 1839: Terms of Trade Edition. The curious thing about the episode is WHY the British invaded, and the tale is one of history's less savory. For many decades, the East India Company. Mistake of viewing an outflow of bullion as an outflow of wealth. That is determined by reciprocal demand. I only bring this up because the Opium Wars started t...

The Discount Interest Rant. Calculating the Present Value of Future Disaster. Tuesday, September 3, 2013.
