So he buys it.

And then it all gets really interesting.

There are two things I learned.

So one is if it's a Rembrandt, I don't know what it's worth, but like 50 or 100 million dollars.

Yeah, a big number.

It sold the year before.

You know, you got a Rembrandt.

That is a valuable object.

But there are a couple of things about it that are really fascinating if you're interested in status.

And it sets up like the whole thought experiment that underlies the book.

We have a situation now where there's just one object and the object is a painting.

And here's the thing.

It is the same painting.

We can all agree that there's just one painting.

And if you put it into one, I'm going to call it an identity state, that is a circle of Rembrandt, it's worth 20,000 bucks.

But if you take the same painting and you call it a Rembrandt, it's worth 50 to 100 million dollars.

But it's the same fucking painting.

Yeah, so now he's got a project on his hands.

I still think about this all the time, and I just wasn't aware of it.

Now Six is kind of on a mission, right?
