Gary Stevenson quit a trading job that made him millions and has spent the years since campaigning for a wealth tax, and this week his documentary "How to Get Filthy Rich" airs on Channel 4, Wednesday 8th July at 9pm.Gary came in for a two and a half hour conversation, and this is the first of three episodes we've cut from it. We talk about the billionaire he interviewed who's never once walked in the park his flat overlooks, what trading floors actually do to the people inside them, and why he thinks cynicism functions as a tax on ordinary people. How to Get Filthy Rich airs Wednesday 8th July, 9pm, Channel 4.I’m Barry Ferns – a comedian whose personal journey through failure, homelessness, and rebuilding led me to explore the socio and behavioural economics of inequality.How to Support Barry’s EconomicsHelp us stay independent and keep making videos like this.https://www.buymeacoffee.com/barryseconomics https://ko-fi.com/barryseconomics https://paypal.me/barryseconomics https://www.patreon.com/barryseconomicsFollow and leave a review if you enjoyed this episode!More about me: https://barryferns.co.uk/Mailing List Sign-up: https://tr.ee/0BKMVwYou can also follow me on Tiktok: tiktok.com/@barryseconomicsInstagram: instagram.com/barryseconomicsTwitter: twitter.com/barryseconomicsSubstack: https://substack.com/@barryseconomicsBlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/barryseconomics.bsky.socialReddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/barryferns/If you’re new to this, check out Gary's Economics first!
