Steklov is going out on a limb, It has already lasted a full month and 12 days. So we are already into months depending on how you count.

Speaking of counting Steklov's next job is as a banker.

Jen's is 63. I guess he has not made enough money yet.

"In December 2021, it was reported that he sought the governorship of Norges Bank, Norway's Central Bank"

"His appointment was officially announced on 4 February 2022"

Jensy baby was Minister of Finance for almost a full year. 8 days shy. I guess that makes him the numero uno candidate.
