Mr Darcy is the main love interest in the 1813 Jane Austen novel Pride and Prejudice. He was considered exceedingly rich, with an income of £10,000 a year, from the assets and businesses he owned. How much would this be worth today? Would that be more or less than any of the highest paid footballers today? Tim Harford, Charlotte McDonald and Oxford University's Stephen Broadberry discuss.
