Jordan Page was deeply unhappy in his 9-to-5 digital content job at a Fortune 500 company. At the beginning of this job, I'd hardly freelanced, putting all my energy into my new role. With decent pay from the corporate role, I'd saved around £6,000, around $7,800, to live on as I tried to build a career as a writer. But when I told them I'd quit, I could see the shock on their faces. Would I have quit my job if "Brat" hadn't been released?

Federal debt is high compared to GDP, even looking beyond the spike of the debt as a share of GDP during the pandemic. While federal debt as a share of GDP was slightly above 100% before the pandemic, recent figures are much higher than in the past. Federal debt was 120% of GDP in the second quarter of this year.
