Is The Federal Reserve Bank Profitable?! - How Money WorksSign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈The federal reserve bank has found itself as the center of attention in recent months, what with everything from, money printer Meme's to “the future of capitalism as we know” on the line, the fed has obviously been an incredibly influential entity.But it’s also something that most people really don’t know much about, or worse… think they know a lot about when they really don’t.But that’s ok because the federal reserve bank is a bank, so the best way to get to really get a good understanding of how it works is just to follow the money and answer a simple question, Is the reserve bank profitable?Now because I hate YouTube video’s than needlessly drag out a question to get their average watch time up the short answer is.. Yes, Massively Profitable, it’s actually the most profitable organization in the world after recently beating out Saudi Aramco.But don’t click away yet… For starters I need that average watch time too, but more importantly, finding out how money works to generate massive profits at the federal reserve bank will teach you a lot about how this almost mythical institution actually operates day to day.#FederalReserve #QE #HowMoneyWorks___________________________________________________________________________Music 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.

Thanks to a few of my video’s taking off this channel gained 100,000 subscribers and over 5.5 million views within a month.I hope it goes without saying that I am incredibly grateful to everybody who has watched my videos, subscribed, left an encouraging comment or even pointed out area’s where I can improve.But with that sappy bullshit out of the way, all regular viewers of the channel will know by now that I hate dragging out an answer to a simple question just to get you to stick around so, $29,000… I made $29,000 in the month that my channel “blew up” as the kids say.Now there are some really interesting things that I have discovered in this period of rapid growth, and some concerning trends which will likely mean that this gravy train is coming to an end very soon, not only for my channel, but for almost every channel on the platform.#YouTubeMoney #HowMoneyWorks

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.

The Dark Secret Behind Those Omaze Giveaways - How Money Works | How Money Works
The Dark Secret Behind Those Omaze Giveaways - How Money WorksSign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈If you have watched YouTube… at all… in the last year or so you have no doubt know what Omaze is…For the few of you who don’t, they are an organisation that promotes lotteries for all manner of different items and experiences, ranging anywhere from a chance to win a Lamborghini all the way to an exclusive Star Wars set tour before it hit theatres.This all sounds very cool especially when it is revealed that all of the proceeds from these lotteries go on to support charities. To date the company has raised over 130 MILLION DOLLARS for charities that do everything from providing scholarships to orphaned children, to installing solar power in remote African communities.Surely it would be pretty hard to hate on an organisation like this right?Well…You see despite this chirpy exterior of flashy cars and warm fuzzies, Omaze is hiding a pretty dark secret. So it’s time to learn how your money works in these raffled because also reveals a lot about how an alarming amount of charitable organizations conduct themselves in the modern day.So before we go any further the first thing you need to know about is that it is a For Profit Institution, which means that its primary goal is not to feed the homeless or save the spotted owl, it’s to make money…It makes this money by representing organizations that are themselves non profits, but they are not one themselves.Now there is nothing fundamentally wrong with this, if feeding America held a charity gala in a Hilton Hotel nobody would have any issues with Hilton hotels later going on to turn a profit that’s fine.Where Omaze starts to push it’s luck though is that it really doesn’t make any effort to stress this relationship.Just think, when your favorite YouTuber was talking about a car giveaway, they probably spoke a lot about Omaze, and the great work it was doing, but just think, do you remember any of the charities that these charities were actually meant to fund?If you do, you certainly have a better memory than me.This is no accident.The company spends millions of dollars on marketing every year and trust me if they wanted you to hear about the actual non-profits, you would have heard about the actual non-profits.The company would instead like for you to conflate with saving the children, more so than running lotteries to make fat stacks, and trust me they do make fat stacks.#Omaze #NonProfit #HowMoneyWorksOmaze lottery fund raising raffle giveaway some lamborghinis and ferraris to winners of this entry free prize money and then money towards good causes and local charities.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.

---------------Fast food has never been GOOD food, but it was a quick, easy, reliable and cheap way to get a meal that appealed to people who were time poor… or just well… you know… actually poor…
Mass layoffs, increasing economic uncertainty, deferred student loan payments kicking in and spiking levels of consumer debt SHOULD be the perfect opportunity for these cheap offerings to bring in customers who don’t have much money to spare, but still want to eat.
For a long time companies like McDonalds, Dominos, KFC, Taco Bell and Wendy’s were considered “recession proof” because even in the most dire of circumstances people still need to eat, and the companies typically offered the best exchange rate of dollars to calories in the market.
But that’s changed.
In a business move that can only be described as… confusing… These brands have responded to cost conscious, busy and desperate consumers by becoming more expensive, slower and less reliable…
Unsurprisingly sales across the industry have plummeted at a time when they SHOULD be outperforming.
It would almost be comical if they weren’t collectively some of the largest employers in the country.
However the McRessession has been caused by more than some management missteps, it’s a clear sign of some much bigger problems in the wider economy.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.

The Growing Problem With Personal Finance YouTuber "Influencers" | How Money Works
The Growing Problem With Personal Finance YouTuber "Influencers"Sign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈I have some bad news for you…You are probably not going to be rich.Not a particularly positive message to start a video on but its something that people need to hear from time to time.Unfortunately, this is not something that most people want to hear, so there is no shortage of people out there that will tell you exactly the opposite, normally as a way to pitch you some kind of product.Now of course most of you watching know that the YouTube ads saying that you can earn 6 figures in a month by selling on Amazon, Forex trading, or flipping real estate are full of shit.But they still all follow a pretty similar routine,hey, you can get richas long as you are willing to do XYZwhile listening to the advice I give you!Again when it turns out that this advice is something that you have to pay for, most people get wise to the fact that it’s all just a massive scam.Of course some don’t, which is tragic and there really genuinely should be more done about this, but that’s a story for another time… or a Coffeezilla video.Instead the focus of this video will be on a group of internet guru’s with much more influence, a much larger following, and much more credibility, the personal finance personalities.So it’s time to learn how money works and find out why you probably shouldn’t be learning to work your money like these popular YouTubers might suggest.#PersonalFinance #Investing #HowMoneyWorks___________________________________________________________________________Music by Epidemic SoundLinks to all channels mentioned in this videoMeet Kevin - https://www.youtube.com/c/MeetKevin
