- 104 - It's time to say goodbye
Alright everyone. Last video. I did this one totally unscripted so I forgot a few important things and then I wrote a really long description to fill that all in and YT told me it was too long 😫 so here's the important points.
1 - THANKS. To everyone - to all of you who watch and share, to Oscar, Jack, Tom, Hattie who work on the channel. To the Patreons who work on all this. To Rebecca Gowland and PMUK and Faiza Shaheen and TJUK and Gabriel Zucman and his team and everyone who works on/supports this.
2 - BURNHAM. I know we are pausing the channel now for a long time but I'll make an exception for you (or maybe even your chancellor). We all want you to succeed.
3. FUTURE PLANS. Channel is down for now, but not forever. I'm working on some other cool stuff too which will come out at some point. I'll be here as long as the economy keeps collapsing, after that I turn this into a Japanese Language learning channel. 心配しないで。諦めないで。
4. PATREON. Special big thanks to all Patreon people. This wouldn't be possible without you. Fuller Post and Q+A on there this week with more details.
5. OTHER CREATORS. While I'm away check out:
BarrysEconomics
LouisaMuchTheory (IG)
JimmyTheGiant
Anna Bocca
Forest Jar (IG)
Pissed Magistus (IG)
Unlearning Economics
Tom Nicholas
Hyphen (punk artist)
6. WHAT ELSE CAN U DO. Understand the concepts and share the videos goddamit. We need more middle class professionals in powerful areas. Become an economist, a politician, a journalist, a central banker. Join your favourite political party and push them on wealth taxes. Don't ask me what to do, just do something small every week. If that's not working, try something else.
7. MENTAL HEALTH. Dont panic. stay strong. drink water. cook healthy meals. try to sleep if you can. talk to your friends. talk to anyone. be there for each other!! Stay strong and take care of each other. Learn and understand what is happening. Share that understanding with others. We don't all get to live in times that are simple, but we do all get to change the world together. They fight us because we are winning. And because they are jealous of how cool we are.
The world is ours.
Good luck
Gary xx

More and more of what you pay in tax goes on government debt interest, rather than funding public services. As this national debt grows, taxes on working people will increase even further –and public services will continue to get worse. How do we stop this?

Changes in interest rates on these bonds can cause economic and political crises, as happened with Liz Truss.

In times of crisis people are desperate for stories to explain why their lives are getting worse. This is why storytelling is the most important – but most ignored – aspect of politics right now.

- 77 - Why our obsession with money is keeping us poor (and why changing interests rates won't make us richer)
The economy is made up of real resources, and the people who produce and own them. Money is different. Money is supposed to represent these real things, but it often fails to. Focusing too much on money – and interest rates and monetary policy – blinds us to how the economy actually works. Gary explains why this is so important if we want to change anything.

Inflation has been high on the news agenda due to the cost of living crisis. When you see people talking about inflation they'll almost always be talking about the rising costs of things you buy in the shops, which is retail price inflation or consumer price inflation. But what about asset price inflation? Assets have been going up for years, and faster than goods and services, so why is that rarely mentioned?

Stephanie Brobbey, a former private wealth lawyer, has seen up close how the rich reduce the amount of tax they pay. She talks to Gary about why she left the wealth management industry.
"There are more food banks than McDonald's in the UK. When I heard that I just thought: I can't continue being part of this system which is essentially designed to keep concentrating wealth and minimizing tax."
