As the waters recede from the tsunami of the global pandemic and Britain settles into its new relationship with Europe and the World, Simon Evans returns to focus his jokenomics lens on the myriad economic challenges and opportunities facing humanity.

Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk have had an excellent pandemic. A 2021 Oxfam report found that the world鈥檚 10 richest billionaires have collectively seen their wealth grow by $540 billion over the last year. And it鈥檚 not just the super-rich, it鈥檚 true that even the less obscenely wealthy have got richer during the pandemic. The price of Aston Martins and other playthings is sure to rise but what does this further bunching of wealth at the top mean for the rest of us?

Simon is joined by Robert Watts, compiler of the Sunday Times Rich List to take a look at the lives and influence of the Super Rich.
