My favorite comment on the article is “The problem with capitalism is that you eventually run out of other people's money."

Can I sell 100y bonds too? It sounds like an amazing opportunity

Well, it's not uncommon in some countries with perpetual loans for individuals, so sure!

It's usually a matter of agreeing the right interest and offering the right security. You will get a worse deal than Google.

Sure! You can sell whatever you like! The trick is finding a buyer.

I would pay like $1 for $100 100 year bond from a random account on the fediverse just for the novelty, tbh.

Edit: actually I should probably be asking more like $800 on a one dollar investment now that I think about it. Compounding interest go brrr.
