Is The World Bank Actually an Evil Empire? - How Money WorksSign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈The world bank and the International Monetary Fund are two international organizations that receive a fair bit of criticism for being overly powerful empires used by the wealthy and influential to squash poor and developing nations.And as we will explore a lot of this criticism isn’t entirely unfair either.But part of the problem stems from the average individual not knowing what the world bank is and what they do, which means at best they only hear about the issues that make headlines, or at worst they don’t hear anything about it and go grr, banks are bad, so a bank for the entire world must be the biggest baddest bank of all.And as we have said, they might not be wrong, but before we get the pitchforks out it’s time to learn how money works, and thoroughly investigate what these institutions do, what they are supposed to do, and why everybody seams to be angry at them all the time.Ok so they world bank and the international monetary fund are often confused for one another, and in fairness they are similar in a lot of ways. Both of them were started as financial arms of the United nations in the mid 1940’s as a response to the financial factors the led to world war 2.They are also both something that most people won’t have anything to with in their day to day lives, unless they were to become a very senior politician or bureaucrat.But here is the general breakdown.#WorldBank #IMF #HowMoneyWorks___________________________________________________________________________Link To The Capitalists Discord where I hang out with other creators - https://discord.gg/8MeNJ7gfSRMusic by Epidemic SoundFollow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.

I’ve also done it to highlight a big problem that I think is worth talking about, monetization drastically effects what you spend your time watching here on YouTube without you even realising it.If you aren’t watching on the first day this video goes live then the title was “This video has made me -$953.56” because that’s how much I spend all in on making the video you are watching right now.That might surprise you, after all most of my videos are made from edited movie scenes and stock clips, compared to some of the things you watch on YouTube, I don’t need to give piles of cash away, film in exotic locations or get a new car every other week.But I still employ an editor who I want to pay very well for the work he does in making these videos come to life, and on top of that there are licenses for the software applications I use, as well as licenses for the things as mundane as a cloud storage drive, email servers and accounting software.The barriers to entry for a YouTube channel like mine are very low, but they are rising, especially if you want to stand out in an ever more competitive landscape of high budget content, and this is causing perhaps one of the biggest problems on the platform.And no, I am not talking about people saying naughty things and getting their videos demonetized, I’m talking about something that greatly impacts the way you consume hours of video every week.#youtubemonetization #howmoneyworks #financeThanks to Ed6767 for the image at 7:19 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Exterior_of_YouTube_Space_Kings_Cross.jpgEdited By: Andrew GonzalesMusic Courtesy of: Epidemic SoundSelect Footage Courtesy of: Getty ImagesFor sponsorship inquiries, please contact sponsors@worksmedia.groupFollow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.

EVE Online's Self Imposed Economic Collapse - How Money Works | How Money Works

EVE Online's Self Imposed Economic Collapse - How Money WorksA few years ago the galaxy within EVE Online was facing a problem. Abundance.An abundance of materials, an abundance of fuel, an abundance of high paying income sources, and an abundance of safe space to harvest these materials, fuels and space dollars.Now while that might sound like a really good problem to have, (and it would be in the real world) It does cause some problems in a video game.The biggest problem simply being that is boring.Try playing GTA 5 with god mode hacks turned on, after punching some fighter jets out of the sky you are going to get bored pretty fast, and people WERE getting bored.The largest groups in EVE online were up until recently playing a game of “build as much as you possibly can so it becomes almost impossible for any smaller group to ever catch up”.#EVEOnline #Finance #HowMoneyWorks___________________________________________________________________________Part 1 - https://youtu.be/m6j_UsGJnkQPart 2 - https://youtu.be/2t25bsqlTM8Part 3 - https://youtu.be/ijhAILUNz_sMusic by Epidemic Sound & Eve Online Original SoundtrackSign Up Link (if you want to try out the game) - https://www.eveonline.com/signup?invc=ef33cafb-0aa2-4051-9f03-55dc800247c2(This link gives both you and I rewards in the game)Follow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.
