When he died he had $310 billion.

Visited the Sleepy Hollow Cemetery with Sarah today. Apparently people like to leave cash on Andrew Carnegie's grave. Because if there's anyone you should be giving money to, it's a dead rich person.

      Yep. That was the coin shortage, which apparently hasn't really been fixed. We had a shortage of $50 notes in Canada due to hoarding, but that was sort of a temporary thing as people started carrying more cash on them at a given time. It's long been fixed.
