Reply to comment by Davidrussell22 in TIL that William I's response to northern rebellion in England was to order the wholesale slaughter of the inhabitants of northern shires, and the burning of food, homes, crops, tools, and livestock so that survivors would freeze or starve by AnselaJonla

Hell, grab a caveman from 100,000 years ago and bring him to the present. Throw him in a suit after a bath and a haircut and you've got yourself an average hedge fund manager.

Bit harsh, sure the caveman would be capable of something useful.
