Some people are grammar nazis but me: I am a math in media kind of stick in the mud. And so, you have to love Valleywag editor Owen Thomas’ command of arithmetic in a love note to Peter Thiel:
“We hear Clarium’s holdings are up 30 percent in a year, from $3 billion to $5 billion.”
I am pretty sure an increase of $2bn on $3bn would be 66%.
