Somebody Else's Money (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Patrick opens with his daughter Meghan; a returning guest from a decade ago, now a rising college junior with her first restaurant job, for what he calls the "Gen Z corner." The subject is debt. Meghan defines it as money borrowed and repaid with interest, and Patrick scales the roughly $19 trillion U.S. household debt figure with analogies: a million seconds is 11½ days, a trillion is 31,000 years; stacked $100 bills would circle the Earth.
