The only problem is… everybody kinda hates middlemen… which is why ENTIRE industries have been created from the ground up to “cut them out” by offering direct to consumer, peer to peer, direct selling, disruptive, streamlined, outlet, platformed solutions to make consuming… everything… an easier, faster and cheaper experience. The only problem is… it never really works, and in our venture capital fueled rush to cut out the middleman, we have just created even bigger ones. Follow to learn How Money Works.

They were going to team up to create a new wall street… in Texas. These two companies have the financial muscle to make a “Texas Stock Exchange” viable, but the question is… why? The startup exchange that will be located in Dallas is already taking shots to challenge the dominance of the New York Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ which are both located in New York City and are by far the largest exchanges in America, and also the largest exchanges in the world. Both of these incumbents are private businesses that make money by providing a place where public stocks and other financial instruments can be traded securely. They make their money by charging companies that want to list on their exchange a one time IPO fee and an ongoing annual fee. The New York Stock Exchange is really not much different to a farmers market where businesses will pay the market organizer for the right to sell their stuff in a place with lots of customers. The only difference is that instead of beets, and artisanal honey, they are selling shares in their company. If the New York Stock Exchange is like a farmers market then the NASDAQ is like ebay, it’s still a marketplace but it’s all done online. The NYSE is owned by a company called Intercontinental Exchange whos shares you can buy on the New York Stock Exchange so apart from a lot of regulatory paperwork there is nothing too special about these companies. As long as a business gets approval from the Securities and Exchange Commission there is nothing to stop them from establishing their own stock exchange wherever they want. The reason they both happen to be located in New York City has more to do with legacy than any pragmatic benefits of operating in a state that is actually not particularly business friendly. The New York Stock Exchange was formed when New York was still a trading center and the NASDAQ set up there in 1971 because at the time the city was the undisputed business capital of America and back then physical proximity was much more important than it is today even though it has always been an electronic exchange. So why is this new challenger bucking the trend and setting up in Texas? Well… why not Texas? So it’s time to learn How Money Works to find out why some of the most powerful financial institutions in the world want to build a new Wall Street in Texas. Follow to learn How Money Works.

Cities are spending billions of dollars on failing projects to try and solve this problem which has attracted a growing list of companies happy to provide their services… for a price. Helping the homeless has become a lucrative business with multimillion-dollar government contracts awarded every day. but if there is so much money to be made, do these companies really want a long-term fix? According to a report by the consulting firm McKinsey and Company, the annual budget for the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority rose from sixty-three million dollars [$63,000,000] in 2015 to eight hundred and eight million dollars [$808,000,000] in 2022, a thirteen HUNDRED percent increase in just seven [7] years… And what did the hardworking taxpayers of Los Angeles get for their money?... The number of homeless people went UP by 56%. Ignoring for a moment that everybody deserves the right to affordable comfortable shelter, there is something not quiet adding up here. A closer look at individual programs like the “Inside Safe” homelessness reduction policy doesn’t make it much better. The idea of this program was to have social workers offer hotel rooms to homeless individuals while they sought out longer-term housing arrangements. Data collected by the city and compiled by local news outlet the center square found that the plan had cost two hundred and fifty MILLION dollars [$250,000,000] over just one year. The program only served one thousand four hundred and sixty-three individuals which works out to be seventeen thousand dollars [$17,000] per individual, per MONTH. That is over two hundred thousand dollars [$204,000] every year been spent on ONE individual in ONE program in just ONE city in America. So where is all this money going? And at what point would it just be easier to give homeless people checks for three times the national salary? Well, there are three reasons why cities across America and the rest of the world are spending more money than ever on this problem while not making it any better. So it’s time to learn How Money Works to find out why throwing money at a complicated problem is not fixing it. Follow to learn How Money Works.

The runner up is China, and they spend less than a THIRD of what we do in any given year, even though they have almost five times as many people. It might not always feel like it, but by global standards we are incredibly rich, we LOVE buying shit, and we aren’t afraid of going into debt to keep doing it. More of our economy depends on the consumption of goods and services than basically any other major country around the world… but this has to have a limit right? As a direct result of our insatiable desire to consume, our household savings rates are now the lowest they have ever been, and high risk, high interest consumer lending has surpassed a trillion dollars. That doesn’t include things like car loans, home loans, student loans, medical loans or informal lending like buy now pay later, which are also approaching all time highs… So what is going to happen to the best consumers on the planet, if they can’t afford to consume any more? And more importantly… could we solve all of our problems by just… buying less junk Follow to learn How Money Works.
