The Day the Gilts Broke: LDI and the 2022 Pension Panic

What this episode argues

This is Season 2, Episode 6 of A Bit Rich, Rich's original series on money, Bitcoin and society. The film stays his; the notes below are TBA's editorial reading for people who arrive through the Journal.

Central idea: Thursday the 22nd of September 2022: the Bank of England raises rates and confirms it will start selling gilts. LDI/gilt crisis 2022. May compete with existing TBA TV retirement posts; supporting link only until SEO review. Watch the episode for Rich's full argument and sources; do not treat this page as a transcript or as investment, tax or legal advice.

What it leaves for TBA to continue: after the ideas in this episode, the next useful step on this site is usually the page that matches its job (/retirement-planning), not a second article that repeats the video. Collaborative security, inheritance and continuity remain TBA's focus once someone understands why Bitcoin exists.

Accuracy and compliance: historical claims, statistics and any forward-looking lines still need a watched review before we treat this evaluation as final. Until then, the YouTube description and sources are the public record of Rich's work.
