Reports based on current trends predict that the world could have its first trillionaire within the next few years. What does this say about our global society? What could, or should, a trillionaire do with that kind of money? In this speculative episode, recorded whilst traveling, Lucie and David consider the thought experiment of implementing a global Universal Basic Income.
