Yeah, I did the same, the other questions are in the area of politics which I find a little bit harder.

Nah mate, they only said April. Apparently economics people found out the 12th of April last year, so probably around that time, but I honestly have no real clue.

yeah, I think they send an email straight away to verify that you entered then around the 10th of April they will tell you. I am going to Cambridge this April for master class and hopefully the lunch too :smile:

Btw,Nick, in your essay you mentioned an equation used by Picketty r>g and when there is slow growth, wealth accumulates, and income distribution worsens as Marx and Picketty would have suggested. But if there is rapid growth, the income distribution is still bad as the top and wealthy receive most of the benefits as India shows, do you think that the UBI could potentially make r=g?
