Dear Mr. Dickens,

As a teacher of *Great Expectations", I find that students are always
inquisitive about the value of money.  When Pip receives 500 pounds on
his twenty-first birthday, we know this must be a lot of money.  Do you
happen to know how much that might be in the modern world?

Thanks!
