......do jedi have retirement funds? do jedi actually, like, retire? or do they just....stop going on missions and dick around in the temple instead of like, Holding Positions. is there just a jedi role that is basically 'if you have a task for me to do: don't' that's assigned to you when you're like 'I'm too old to Do Jedi Shit, peace out folks'?

but also, jedi interest must be fucking insane. assuming they have...interest as we understand it. I'm not immediately* coming up with a point anyone mentions interest in canon, so maybe they don't??? the gffa is psuedo- medieval-esque where it's not ultra-turbo-capitalism so....???? what are the moneylending laws in the gffa. is usury a thing. will I ever run out of logistics questions about an only marginally thought out fictional universe populated by space wizards.

I sort of assume Luke couldn't claim former jedi assets due to the whole 'evil genocidal empire took it' sort of thing, but maybe there's actually a whole lot of space lawyers working though the reparations argument offscreen??

alderaan: galactic fucking weenies is hilarious. the only people out here being like 'maybe death and dismemberment isn't....the cost of doing business?? maybe?? consider not jumping to maiming as the first line of negotiation?? possibly there is a value to sentient life??'', and the rest of the galaxy is like 'i dun get it🤪'.

*I am also just off work and it's a friday arvo so like. me big stupid. maybe there's an extended monologue on tax and money regulations in every movie I'm forgetting ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

this one goes out to the other like, two or so nonprofit/adjacent folks in the fandom, but: presuming the Jedi are a nonprofit and also like, accept donations, what the hell does their development department look like. do they have Jedi major gifts officers, or are all Jedi also part of the dev department. do they have Jedi stewardship plans. is there a section of the shadows who are like, Intel officers For Missions but also sometimes prospect research, like, today they're hunting down info for a raid on a Hutt slave trading outpost, tomorrow it's a gala brief for master Getshella Dosh before zie goes to the naboo summit dinner?

also, what does their acceptable gifts policy look like. how much did they have to fuckin scramble when war broke out and suddenly surprise you can't take donations from zxy planets, I know we're 2/3rds through a century long major gift pledge from Serreno but we have to kill that right fucking now.
