Isn't Harry a millionaire?

Yes, you would need a loicense and Harry could barely read.

what is the prize pool for quiddich tournament? it could be a smart investment

because he bought all the lollies on that train

I'm guessing Aurors pay super well?

I guarantee they asked the dealership for a significant discount on the basis that they're "a good customer", or simply demanded one for free because "it would be good exposure for the brand".

It's been confirmed that those stacks of gold coins in his bank vault is a decent sum of money but nothing that makes him especially wealthy compared to others. He has enough to live a comfortable life but that's it.

I also remember JK Rowling mentioning in some sort of lore book the approximate value of the HP world currency, iirc a Firebolt Quidditch Broomstick is like 15k US equivalent.

Also you have to remember that Harry came was brought up with a shitty family that treated him especially poorly and he dressed in rags essentially. He doesn't really have a reference for spending money on anything.

Today user learns what life insurance is. Congratulations, you've taken your first step into "adulting."

James' dad was an inventor of something.

>confirmed
You mean retconned.

>I BUY ALL THE ROOMS. ALL THE OTHER STUDENTS DESERVE TO LIVE ON THE STREETS

Alakaboom!

That's what instagram thots say when they want free shit.

No wonder millennials love Harry Potter so much, he’s gifted everything on a silver platter and doesn’t have to work for any of it

Same reason they like Batman.

First part is wrong, Rowling herself said even old Voldy would get BTFO by a copper with a gun if the guy got the first shot off.

Second part is the true reason though, Bongland is nogunz hence why Voldy was able to rise to power.

Wizards don't value gold as much as we do, guys. What Harry inherited from his parents was a decent amount, but not a fortune worth millions.

Quidditch is such a shit sport, you mean to tell me that you can just buy a better broom and play with it?

Did the hogwarts school kids also learn about normal things like math and biology, or did they strictly only learn about "muh magic xD"?
Are they all analphabetic fucks?

>Rowling herself said even old Voldy would get BTFO by a copper with a gun if the guy got the first shot off.

Can you show the source of that statement?

rowling should have made him a poorfag, the struggle would have made it more involved

Did the bank goblins value gold? Surely they did

It's drowned out in the sea of trans-bashing

A million isn't even all that much. Sure, you're wealthier than most but it's not exactly 'new Ferrari each year' money.

How id one broom better than the other? Is it simply the strength of the enchantment? Because why buy a new one when you can just add your own stronger enchantment?

Harry Potter is an escapist character, being poor defeats the purpose

You don't need to go to a ferrari, but if you got 1 million, you could easily go to a mercedes class S for example

Why aren't there just standardized league brooms? This sport is retarded

Wizards are shown to be extremely dim witted in the books. They don’t even know how to spell biology.

Buying a transportation necessity for school isn't frivolous, tranny.

>buys a bazillion sweets

>England had super strict gun control laws meaning getting a gun is super fucking hard even as an adult.
So then use magic to magic yourself over to America, buy a gun, enchant it with one of those spells that makes it hard to notice, or transfigermorph it into something unassuming and then magic yourself back to bongland
