Why doesn’t Bill Gates use his vast wealth to do anything other than wear poorly fitting polos, feed Black folk, and badger everyone else about vaccines?
I did and I don't remember anyone saying that Potter was unemployed besides Vernon, but how the frick would he know any truth about anything.
I just assumed that they were aurors because they're le goods guys and were in le order
I remember no explaination of Potters' wealth anywhere in the books at all.
They used the duplicado spell.
Anime rules say wizards can't permanently duplicate shit out of nothing
Why doesn't a spell exist that something into gold? Who the frick knows. Theur bullshit meme economy wouldn't work at any level if they could create shit out of nothing.
The Potters inherited it. Vernon was right. Vernon was right about a lot of things. Don't assume.

I will assume, frick Vernon, he's an ignorant c**t, and is proud of that btw.
Which of the books says that they inherited it, do you remember?
I think I'm gonna reread them anyways, but I just want to satisfy my curiosity right now.

I bet they have some gay laws preventing wizards from doing that, something about using magic on muggles.

Vernon is based. Magic is dangerous, Dumbledore is a crackpot old fool, and wizards are freaks. Vernon is the true protagonist and Harry is an ungrateful little creep.

Cars are also dangerous, drills are dangerous, being obese js dangerous. Picking fights you can't win (being a c**t) is dangerous.
Every tool is dangerous, as an adult you just need to be responsible about how you operate it.
Dumbledore is a crackpot, Harry isn't a creep but he did act ungratefully, yeah, cuz they were very mean to him. Idk what the frick any of them expected, treating a child like that, especially when he hit puberty, lmao.
Vernon is a c**t, I will die on this hill. Albeit, a c**t with moral principles, and he did try to raise a child that wasn't his own. That is respectable.

Vernon was a responsible driver. He knew all about drills. And he wasn't fat, that is a movie addition. He never picked a fight, he and his family were attacked by lunatics. Criminally deranged freaks with dangerous magic tricks. Harry was an ungrateful little shit that Vernon fed and clothed and should have dropped off at an orphanage. Vernon is a good man and I will die on this hill.

It absolutely is. Vernon is stocky. Well built.
I am completely serious. You are the mountain troll. I think r/harrypotter might be more to your taste.
Don't worry based Vernon ally. You can have my (you)s

More of a Snape guy myself but venon is still cool. Harrys dad was a tosser
they were recruited by dumbledore right out of school and had no time to have professional careers, most of their time was spent locked up hiding harry from voldy
That was answered in the books. Harry offered and the parents didn't want his help because taking money from a 10 year old who doesn't know shit is kinda scummy.
How are the Weasleys even poor. Their children are at a tuition free boarding school for 90% of the year. They have a magic house. Their only expense is buying school supplies once a year.
arthur weasley spends 400 galleons a month on unwound casette tapes, car batteries and the largest private collection of antique firearms north of bretagne
What was the Ministry of Magic's tax policy?
What about inheritance taxation?
Did the Dursleys get a check from the Ministry of Magic for raising Harry and keeping magic a secret because they are muggles?
Why was Dumbledore so incompetent at finding Horocruxs and why did he only start to look for them when he was dying?
every wizard or witch is to provide 800 wandstrokes of magical labor or produce per full moon
10%, except for the seventh son of a seventh son
yes, but vernon did not cash it in as it was "no good magical nonsense" and the financial drain of harry added to their resentment
homosexualimancy withered his brain lobes
Money changes friendships. Never a good idea to just give a huge amount of it. They'll feel like a charity case, and never get over the guilt of owing you. Harry's only 10 years old here - it's not an infinite amount of money, he still needs to live off it too. He has no parents with jobs to buy him things like food, medicine, stuff for school.
If I recall some passage from the book correctly, he's supposedly richer than even the Malfoys, and they're notorious for having important ministry people in their pocket from bribery. Harry's a massive trust fund baby.
why didn't harry invest the gold into a stable 8% yield and use the dividends to frick escorts in central Europe?
Rowland has no imagination
They were proud and honest people who wouldn’t have accepted charity and he knew it would insult them if he offered
He was a volcel

Mate.. he was on the Epstein flight logs
gold had greater returns when this movie came out. 2nd bull run happening rn too
How about arbitrage?

Or use it to recruit a Wagner-tier private army to murder Voldemorts accomplices
>weasleov's flying lada getting "accidentally" shot down by a pantsir curse
He gave the twins his triwizard tournament winnings so that they could start up their joke shop.
is a practical joke boutique really a sound investment? What sort of returns would Potter have been looking at over a 10 year period?
How come Harry's parents managed to amass that fortune on what is essentially a federal police salary?
His father was from a wealthy family
Weren't his parents aurors? They're like elite 3 letter agency field operatives, surely that also paid well.
>Weren't his parents aurors?
No. Neville Longbottoms parents were Aurors. The Potters were not. Read the books, you plebe.
I did and I don't remember anyone saying that Potter was unemployed besides Vernon, but how the frick would he know any truth about anything.

More of a Snape guy myself but venon is still cool. Harrys dad was a tosser
the potters were a very old direct line of a pureblood family, which is why they had the thousand year old invisibility cloak
they were recruited by dumbledore right out of school and had no time to have professional careers, most of their time was spent locked up hiding harry from voldy
Harrys parents were unemployed. The Order of the Phoenix were a secret society not the police. His dad was a trustfund babby with generational wealth.
They used the duplicado spell.
Not possible to duplicate or even replicate Goblin gold.
Do you know nothing of the lore?
Great grandfather Potter or something made a fortune inventing a hair tonic
That was answered in the books. Harry offered and the parents didn't want his help because taking money from a 10 year old who doesn't know shit is kinda scummy.
He hooked up with their daughter anyway, which is providing for the family in a roundabout way
Could've at least gotten Ron a new wand in the second movie
She is looking like shit. Her tired face and chunky arms. Emma should have retired from acting and become a Hollywood housewife by now.
Hammond is looking good ngl
Why do wizards use money?
To purchase goods and services.
Because moneyless societies don't exist and can't function in capitalist brains.
Want magical goods made by a better wizard than yourself? Want magical services performed by a better wizard than yourself? That'll be 200 shekels.
to horde it only so the muggles dont get it
Radcliffe is israeli what did you expect
>be wizard
>defraud muggle companies through magical means

>>turn fiat currency into gold
The flaw in your plan is that turning something into gold requires 1 very particular object
The Weasleys won 1000 galleons in a lottery in Prisoner of Azkaban and immediately squandered the whole thing a holiday trip.
How are the Weasleys even poor. Their children are at a tuition free boarding school for 90% of the year. They have a magic house. Their only expense is buying school supplies once a year.
Taxation is insane in the wizarding world.

please tell me he throws the car batteries into lagoons as part of a 5 year big eel plan

The first thing Harry does is flex his wealth on the whole school but buying up the cart
