      Thanks! How does K = a rack?
      • nate constructor · 2024-02-13T23:22:31.893Z
        Cheers Oliver! A rack is slang for a thousand dollars.

          That explains why this elderly Brit has never heard of it!

            Haha sorry about that! I often run into Britishisms I've never heard before in cryptics, I hope you don't mind me turning the tables for once 😉

              I'm glad that I can still learn something new.

                For what it's worth, this 40-something American has never heard "rack" for "thousand" either.

        More challenging this time around… had to peek a bit, guess I’m stretching my cryptic muscles a bit. Thanks for the puzzle!
