The’m earth’s tilt to the ecliptic is 23’5 degrees and. New Zealand stretches from 25 south to past 50 south with the bulk of the two islands below 40 south. The billionaires are all on the southern island well past 40 south. For most of the year other than a few months around the winter solstice New Zealand is as far as you could get from the ecliptic.

Yes, I was fascinated by the change just travelling from Auckland to Christchurch via train and ferry.
I've thought about this several times. The majority of those dying from covid are over 65. I haven't seen a single article talking about the positive effect on Social Security or Medicare.
True, but unless you want to lose 7+% to inflation a year (OK 3% most years) you have to invest in something - and everything you can invest in has some risk. Stocks have a very, very good track record over the long haul and nearly any longer term period except the first half of the great depression. Your cash has a depreciating asset that fluctuates in value so pretending you are safe not investing is moronic.
