Global Currency Devalues, Only I'm Rich

The Story

The world’s assets shrink ten thousand times in a single night. Joren, a bottom-tier mechanic living in a damp basement, wakes to find his savings of fifteen thousand dollars completely untouched. He now holds the most devastating fortune on Earth. Joren walks into the city’s most exclusive club, where a once-arrogant rich kid controls the desperate elite with a single cent. The mechanic casually pulls out a ten dollar bill. The old order collapses immediately. Joren stands in the room as the previous hierarchy dissolves before his eyes. The rich kid watches the currency change hands. The elite shift their attention to the new source of power. Joren’s simple act of spending redefines the value of wealth in this altered reality. The basement dweller has become the dominant figure in the exclusive space.
