Frank has bandwidth for story telling, a talent respected by isolated tribal groups, me thinks he would adapt listen, proceed as student and become story teller...hell he may never come out of this hypothetical experience by his own free will, deciding twas better to tell stories by knocking on wood then wasting his breath. You, fear struck by the bones of painted shamans and gutteral sounding treedmen around you, may just resort to the weapon at your side, or throw them a teeshirt or offer a ticket out on your boat...
lots of choice, better make the right one, cause nightfall in the jungle brings armies that will make a meal of you without a care about any of your life saving loot.

I may even use the weapon to hunt or protect myself from wild animals. I may use the boat to move downsteam to civilization. I may offer the t-shirts as a sign of goodwill to the indigenous people. But the conversation is really about the definition of wealth. We can speculate what Frank would do and what I would do. Our capabilities are going to be with us regardless. Those capabilities are obviously important. But it is "stuff" or wealth that allows us to access the work that we have done in the past for our current or future needs. Stuff gives options.

Happy New Year.
