Uhh so how did James and Lily manage to amass all that wealth?
>Accio money
>>220913914IIRC james's dad or grampa got rich by inventing some potion
>>220913914A great grandfather on the potter side invented skelegrow. Also the potters were an old wizarding family, and harry was the last of the line.
>>220913914Usury upon fiat currency. Stop asking questions.
>>220913914James was a school bully and stolen lunch money adds up, which is also why Harry’s ancestral impulse flex is to deprive the other kids of trolley sweets
>>220913914Foid fantasy of being ultra-rich out of thin air, never having to earn it
>>220913914James came from an old pure blood family.
Harry's grandfather invented wizard hair gel
>>220913914The Potters were just an old wealthy wizarding family and Harry was the sole heir. There is nothing complicated about it.
>>220913914The wizard economy is stagnant as shit they didn't buy anything with all that gold, muggle currency has a ridiculous exchange rate
Britishers looted Uagadou and jeetwarts.
>>220913914Harry was a nepo baby all along. Shocking i know.
>>220913914Well…Lilly was on this service called MuggleBitches which sold interactive JOI photos that James took. Her biggest simp was some degen that signed his owl post orders with “half blood prince”.
>>220914001The roots of the family’s wealth stretch back over centuries, bolstered by brilliant potion-making:Linfed of Stinchcombe: The original Potter ancestor (nicknamed "the Potterer") was a 12th-century wizard who created medicinal remedies, including early versions of potions like Skele-gro and Pepperup Potion. His sales to Muggles and wizards established the family fortune.Fleamont Potter: James's father was a gifted potioneer who invented Sleekeazy's Hair Potion. The product was a massive commercial success, Quadrupling the family's existing gold.
>Hogwarts didn’t always have bathrooms. Before adopting Muggle plumbing methods in the eighteenth century, witches and wizards simply relieved themselves wherever they stood, and vanished the evidence. — Pottermore (@pottermore) January 4, 2019what did joanne mean by this?
James stole Snape's crypto wallet
>>220913914Their house was sold off after they died. This is just what the house of an old wizard family is worth.It's like inheriting $400k. It may as well be infinite money to a child, but you're not a millionaire.
>>220914707All she had to do to fix this idea was to say they used chamberpots rather than shitting on the fucking floor.It would absolutely make sense for wizards to use chamberpots since they're old fashioned and don't need plumbing to make the shit go away.The room of requirement even provided chamberpots to Dumbledore one time when he needed to take a dump, so there's precedent.
why didnt Harry move out with all that money? surely those are ample for 7 years of lodging rent. Street kids had to survive on less
>>220913914They invested in Rapecoin. They made a bundle in the Moldovan markets.
>>220913914British Batman
>>220915479Uncle Vernon would have found Harry in his new place, and forced him to sleep in the smallest area Harry could be squeezed into. What had been Harry’s bedroom would be claimed as Dudley’s guest bedroom. Harry would then be subject to random inspections and beatings. He’d be wasting his parent’s parting gift for no improvement in his lifestyle.
>>220915479Harry had to keep living with people who shared his blood to maintain an enchantment that protected him from the death eaters until he reached adulthood.Kinda shit writing, but that's the reason.
>buy a handful of houses in Britain in the early 90's for £10>sell them twenty years later
>>220915479Why didn't an 11 year old move out? Are you fucking retarded or what?Like am I replying to an AI chatbot or something?
>>220914104anyone who says foid is literally a glowing nig
>>220915658It's part of zoomer lexicon, unc
>>220913914GoFundMe after they died
>>220913914Their ancestors were goblins, but they converted.
>>220913914>amass all that wealthwasn't harry broke as shit by his final year/deathly hallows?
>>220915579>Uncle Vernon would have found Harry in his new placeit's wizard gold, he's not moving to london with magic coin retard.
>>2209156388 year old Matilda could find an adoptive mother in one school year. But this fucker couldn't even get adopted by the ginger family even though their old children have already moved out and he could literally buy them to a new house.
>>220913914>>220914647>They got rich off of hair gelThis is honestly worse than black Hermione/Snape, or the fact that students used to shit in the hallways.
Gambling on Quidditch matches
>>220914707Why do they have to relive themselves, why can't they "vanish the evidence" while it's still inside?
>>220917055It probably violates gimp's law or something.
>>220913914child trafficking
>>220916969No, he still had most of his gold and a free house from Sirius complete with a slave. He was wealthier than when he started.
>>220917055Sounds like a great way to vanish your organs and die.
>>220913914Most wealth inherited by old families in the UK and passed through generations is usually down to involvement in the slave trade.Countless people would have died to make the Potter fortune.And harry pissed it away buying more sweets than he could eat on the way to school, depriving all the other kids on the train of them and investing in a joke shop run by 2 ginger kids too thick to be able to even finish school.At least 50 people died just so Harry could "take the lot" on the Hogwarts Express.
Grow up, pedotranny>"Nerd culture is the product of a late capitalist conspiracy, designed to infantalize the consumer as a means of non-aggressive control."- Simon Pegg>"A sweet-faced boy of twelve told me proudly that he had seen Star Wars over a hundred times? I said, 'do you think you could promise never to see Star Wars again?' He burst into tears. I just hope the lad, now in his thirties, is not living in a fantasy world of secondhand, childish banalities"- Alec Guinness>"I don't think they are making [comic book movies] an elevated art form, I think it's still just Batman running around in a stupid cape..It's for kids, it's adolescent in its core"- David Cronenberg>"I don't want to see or make films about super heroes that fly around in spandex and a cape solving the problems of the world. I think it's fine for children, children of all ages by the way, but it's not for me"- William Friedkin>“They have been poison, this cultural genocide, Because the audience is so overexposed to plot and explosions and shit that doesn’t mean nothing about the experience of being human”- Alejandro Iñárritu>"Superman makes me vomit, Batman and all of that. That whole empire...this religion...It is so important that superheroes suffer. I don't give a damn, I shit on the United States"- Alejandro Jodorowsky>"To my mind this embracing of what were unambiguously children's characters at their mid-20th century inception seems to indicate a retreat from the admittedly overwhelming complexities of modern existence"- Alan Moore>"The movies are for children but they don't want to admit that...There is a small group of fans that do not like comic sidekicks. They want the films to be tough like The Terminator, and they get very upset and opinionated about anything that has anything to do with being childlike."- George Lucas
>>220917215>grow upwhy?Reminder that plenty of "potterheads" manage to marry and reproduce, so clearly they have a social life.
>>220914647Thanks, Grok.
>>220917139He actually just bought "a little of everything" from the trolley. Probably spent the modern equivalent of $30.And the joke shop money was his triwizard winnings. Didn't come out of his inherited wealth at all.
>>220917139>is usually down to involvement in the slave trade1.) Wizards don't need muggle slaves because they have house elves to help out2.) Magic makes slaves obsolete because wizards can build things, do dishes, etcetera with magic and they don't need slaves
