The Rich Will Bankrupt Us All - Garys economics

Hello! We’ve put something together for you - a free guide for beginners that shows 80% of what you need to know about personal finance on 2 pages. You can get it here: makingmoney.email/80-guide-video

[@FudgeMonkeySmurf]

I'm 50 and have worked all my life up to what I used to think is now a decent salary and I entirely agree that I have more in common with the man/woman on minimum wage because that's where I was 35 years ago and I'm still struggling albeit less so but paying 50% tax. It has taken me this long to become enlightened about what wealth truly means and I am so glad that the internet exists, KZbin exists and this type of content is available now to the masses. The only way change will happen is through education and spreading that knowledge in an understandable manner to the many. This is what you are doing and I commend you all for doing it. Keep up the good work. 👍

[@lagringa7518]

They've been trying to make the middle class disappear and the poor poorer since the Thatcher/Reagan Neoliberals took over everything, they've increased their wealth by 40%+ and everyone else lost 40% of spending power. Speaking of education, that was also a strategic agenda on their part.... to make each consecutive generation dumber... they don't want them to know how to think critically, how money works, how to be an entrepreneur, how the rich (and those private Mafia Central Banks) steal from you or what your Rights USED to be or what is TRUE which is why the media endlessly lies to you. Just keep your noses in those cell phone social media inanities, bolster narcissism based on nothing, destroy local businesses by buying on Amazon and remain passive, confused, distracted and fearful. I'm 75 and have watched this plague upon humanity for the last 55 years, the consolidation into monopolies of everything that used to be local, family run and created solid, compassionate communities. They can't have that you see... not when they want to control everything ie; EVERYONE on planet Earth: food, water, oil, land, air, minerals etc. and YOU. This is the Great Reset that NO ONE volunteered for. 😡

[@MRW515]

That's the fault of our education system, I am a little older than you but in my late 40s I began to study how the wealthy got wealthy and it is about buying assets and keeping them in a limited company. Tax is paid on profit, so the trick is to not make profit but have cash flow. Look up cash flow quadrant and the Prussian education model.

[@hannah60000]

Somewhat, if you’re paying 50% taxes, you can’t truly relate to being on a true minimum wage (even if you were once on a minimum wage). However, it’s important to empathise. Money comes and goes, so it’s definitely important to be grounded and appreciate when we have it and remember those who aren’t as fortunate (because for many it could be us). Peace!

[@henghistbluetooth7882]

@@hannah60000This is one of the fallacies they use to divide us. Why can’t he relate? I am 51 - I earn £200k a year (now). My secondary school closed down in 1988 from lack of funding - there was a riot with what we used to call ‘paddy wagons’ - police vans - that broke up a riot and kids throwing rocks threw third floor windows ( a nice racial slur there from the 1980s). I grew up in an area of east of Birmingham where brain donors from the NF and BNP used to roam around and just smash anything they could. Despite this I worked hard to get A levels and then Uni paid for by taxes from my mum and dad and every mum and dad in the UK. Then I worked to become an expert in one very specific area of IT which required ten+ years of 80 hour weeks. Finally I’m fairly comfortable and I still beat myself up over financial decisions I didn’t take because it was before KZbin and my mum and dad - both teachers - knew nothing about money (they were mis-sold an endowment mortgage). My son is diagnose autistic and I have spin 5 years battling with arrogant and dismissive primary schools that didn’t want to deal with a ‘difficult’ circumstance. This led me to suicidal thoughts and a year and a half of therapy. I do get tired of being the guy who has it easy because right here, and right now, at this specific point in my life I earn more than some other person and so therefore can’t ever relate. It’s so black and white and utterly dismissive of an individuals’ journey and circumstances.

I think he's referring to all the other taxes we pay which equates to 50% not necessarily from his pay

There is not one thing Gary has said in this interview that you yourself can take away and improve your financial situation. If you have, I'm all ears.

[@montyloads]

My parents emigrated here in the 70s... dad worked in warehouses, mum largely raised kids for 10 years before also working in retail or warehouse jobs.. they divorced when i was 13. Mum was left with 3 kids (youngest 13) and around 20 years of mortage on a 3 bed house on the borders of kent and south east london left to pay.. she now owns that house through working in warehouse jobs 9-5 mon-fri. The point of me saying this is in today society she would have absolutely no chance. I love that gary points out how hard thimgs are in todays society and shines a light on how it cam effect mental health of individuals and they should not feel so bad about what theyve acheived and where they curremtly are financially. Hes gained alot of respect from me 👏

[@tituscrow4951]

100% today she’d pay so much in rent she would probably never get a mortgage… Food electric & everything else is far more expensive. Your gran would have died poor on a crap pension probably going cold & struggling in the winters.

[@GlasPthalocyanine]

Absolutely right. I bought my first house as a single parent. Most people had that chance if they had fairly regular work. The hard thing now is how people are pressured to believe that they are to blame for this mess. The Government did this! The Government made choices according to their warped priorities and voters should be pressuring for different choices.

[@GlasPthalocyanine]

@@goych I think the point is that the whole business of being able to afford to eat and keep a roof over our heads takes up all your time and brainpower. That's deliberate. It's too difficult for enough people to get off the conveyor belt and look at the bigger picture. It's not that people are stupid. They're exhausted.

[@goych]

@@GlasPthalocyanine and traumatised yes I agree, bigger picture stuff is a privilege few can afford. That’s why we have teachings from those who can see it. For whatever reason Gary has been given an amazing financial leg up despite being from a poor background. I love that he’s using it to try to help rather than hinder

[@tituscrow4951]

We’ve been supporting Gary for almost 2 years now. As soon as I heard him talk I knew he got it. And he does get it. But this should not be a lot of comfort if you hear what he is predicting. If you live in the U.K. you already feel it. The wealth is only going one way. Gary tells you why. How much, & how much worse it will get. & you better listen like it’s your own dear mother whispering to you. Because unless you’re already rich you are getting shafted from here on in. Your families assets will eventually get bought out & rented back to you at prices that don’t leave you a pot to piss in. Your jobs wage will never go up further than that rent increase or price of food & utilities. All assets in some rich people’s portfolio. Just like your debt for education.

Is this the worst case scenario that might eventually happen? What is the most likely scenario and over what time frame? Lets be specific and useful and give people the most likely prediction for the end of this decade, all things being equal. Lot of people talking in averages and anecdotally. People who know about stats should be talking in probabilities.

[@Google_Does_Evil_Now]

​@@paulbrown5839have you watched any of Gary's videos where he explains what's happening, money, wealth, the wealth transfer from us to the super rich through assets etc? All your bills are you sending money to the super rich because they own the high street, the water, rail, electricity, food distribution, farm land, internet, every thing you pay for. They own your mortgage or your place if you're renting. And they are over charging on every thing, while also putting us on zero hours contracts, lobbying for wages rises to be below inflation so that you become ever poorer and work longer for less, so that they can take more and more from us. Stop the steal. Stop them.

Gary is being heavily promoted because he is controlled opposition to keep the left away from discussions about banking and money printing. It's the exact same play as what they did after Occupy Wallstreet astroturfing all the LGBT insanity. The regime in this country absolutely do not want people talking about the actual problems which are central banking and jewish global finance, which they got a bit too close to doing in 2008. Hey Gary, which group comprises half of billionaires? Hey Gary, which group owns the NGOs importing cheap labour into Britain? Which group controls the media in Britain?

No, a wealth tax will never happen because its unworkable, anyone who has any money will put their money in places that greedy socialists like you cant get at it. How much money will such a tax raise? Oh wait - probably not enough to make any appreciable difference. Instead of trying to take more of people's money, would you not think it's a better idea to maybe ask governments to be a bit more prudent in how they spend what money they do get? That never occurs to you, does it.

[@hilarygibson3150]

I'm never sure where wealth starts. I've got about a million between pension and cash, so I'm certainly wealthy. My house is very average in a poor northern town and I drive a second hand van. To get my wealth, such as it is, I didn't inherit from my parents nor win on the lottery. I worked on average 75 hours a week, 16 weeks holiday in 37 years. Started a business at 26 with my house on the line. I was in haulage, I worked hard, 24+ hour shifts, outside in all weathers. I do think how you earned your money needs to be taken into account.

[@TeleCustom72]

The 'prepping' that Gary talks about resonates with me. I was the first person in my family to get a degree and recall after graduation expecting to walk into a job. I very quickly realised that the route to these jobs had already been sewn-up by others. I was green as grass, but it was an eye-opener for me. Ultimately, I changed careers twice before settling on being a brewer/distiller. If you want to talk about a career that demands significant technical knowledge and mostly pays under £28k, brewing is it. I love my profession, but I'd also love to be able to not worry about money. I know that I'm not unique in that respect and other sectors are even more poorly paid.

[@t-zero8880]

such a real talk. I am myself in the category of people 24-26 y.o. that worked hard, studied so much, and can't even get a good paying job these days. My dreams of when I was young was to have a well paid job that can afford me a house and a family. I am now looking to move in other countries where I can achieve these goals, and live a fulfilled life, but the problem is that anywhere else in Europe, is also mostly difficult. Living from day to day really, thinking to abandon the profession I have studied so hard for 6 years, because as Gary said, hard work is not paid off these days. I can't comprehend these politicians or people smilling at TV and saying economy is "slightly" hard, when all of my friends live in miserable conditions for someone at this age, that should have a well paid job (if you worked hard) and making plans of future.

[@trustwithin7188]

I do feel sorry for the younger generations...also even if you do somehow get a good job they are always "restructuring " and getting rid of people so its not secure and everyone thats left is overstretched and stressed out. If I was a guy I would be a self employed electrician or plumber as they are always in demand...this is what alot of my friends partners do and they are smart guys (plus you can fiddle your books abit up if you want a mortgage or down if you wanna pay less tax ;)

[@GregaPozar]

Hi Damien and Timeyin. I always thoroughly enjoy this podcast and your own podcast @DamienTalksMoney because it really speaks volumes and you do that with humility in a professional manner. Your channel admits that there is a fault in the system but gives you the education required to progress, something to get 'ahead' of the game or at least gives you an insight into a swimming lane of those who are more fortunate. It gives you the tools (budgeting especially and investing) and enthusiasm to work towards your future. I think that this episode was sadly the complete opposite of that. I understand that a lot of people support Gary because his message resonates with people. That being said, I find him quite hard to listen to. It isn't the swearing, that is just the way he communicates. But in his videos which I've seen, most of the time is spent talking about how amazing he is, how great he was/is with Maths, how he is godlike with predictions, how he is better than everyone else. Absolutely no humility unlike you two. I was curious about that and looked into him and found no proof to support what he was saying (not saying it isn't true but gives me even more reason to doubt). At the same time, his message was what, tax the rich, the world is set against you? Yes, everyone knows that, this is why we listen to your channel @DamienTalksMoney . To me, Gary just sounds like another politician and I get no value in listening to him (aka full of sh**). Reminds me of Trump a bit. Repeating the same thing over and over again until eventually, people believe it. I am however appreciative since having him on the show, gives your channel more visibility and this means education for a wider audience. This is the value which I see in the video. Greetings from Scotland and thank you for your content.

[@DzzO]

this is so important. People NEED to understand that money's value is relative. if the rich gets richer they outbid everybody on assets and it makes everybody else poorer.

[@mikezooper]

The right tell everyone that “if only they work hard enough, they’ll become wealthy”. However, some very hard working people remain poor. This lie needs to be addressed.

[@Theshotdemon]

This is a dangerous mindset. It's not only about working hard. You have to be in the right frame of mind, too.

[@JackSmith-os8nm]

This is quite a shocking conversation when you think about it. The situation is grave.

As Gary has said there is a difference between wealth and money! For some they are born into it, and the rest of us take a lifetime to figure it out.

I love Gary. He has a heart. A brain and a heart.

[@mikezooper]

So proud of you youngsters. You’re giving me hope for the future.

[@JM-yf3ol]

Gary’s channel is excellent. Let’s face it, every economist positively ignores distribution and inequality, despite it being the main issue of our time. There’s no consequences for being wrong in economics aside from where Gary worked. In fact they make you prime minister. You can’t become PM unless you believe, or prepared to pretend, that trickle down economics works.

[@trustwithin7188]

Yes its more like trickle up!!

This should be taught in schools. Along with the importance of unions and cooperatives. Those with the best pensions and working conditions are usually in unions. How about making a law which makes joining a union compulsory, rather like the introduction of pensions a few years back.

[@jamesbailie8647]

Wow, Gary really gets it. I really do think there is an untapped silent majority of young people in the UK who earn ‘decent’ money, but can’t afford to get on the property ladder. I hope this silent majority follow Gary’s movement and we can shake the politicians into listening. Gary, I’m right behind you!! 🫡

[@jx6774]

I’ve been watching Gary for over a year now. The man is flawless. He conveys such an important message with such conviction and pure passion. He takes the time to really break down what is happening and explain it in a digestible way. But his ideas will never reach the masses. Aside from the fact all he expresses directly contradicts the ideals pumped out by the media machine and brandished by our government; my reasoning is two fold: Very few have the understanding of basic economics necessary to truly compute the scale and reality of what Gary is saying. And for the rest; they’re hearing something they don’t really understand which sounds very negative and pretty terrifying. Of course they neglect it. Keep doing God’s work Garry.

[@teodordl]

Well, there is a certain manifesto that gained traction a couple of hundred years back or so which contains somewhat similar ideas. It seems probable that a clear, distilled version of Gary’s ideas, in book form or in new media form, might just catch on.

[@TheMrChugger]

OMG, another one of my favourites on this channel, so happy to see this!

[@philth7587]

Great chat! I'd never heard of Gary but will sub to him now.

[@red4070]

Love Gary's passion even though the topic is scary. Thing is though we are currently in the midst, perhaps at the peak and the point of no return, of the biggest wealth transfer in history. I'm sure he's aware of that and predicted it in private. He mentions Dickensian times returning and I don't think he's far off the mark.

[@Your-Money-Mindset]

Absolutely loved this! Felt very similarly in my first year of University. Everyone had spent their summer with the Reading List and wading through Paradise Lost. My Summer was spent packing boxes in a local warehouse! 😂

[@sanjanadeb2957]

Really interesting, back in 2016 I read the McKinsey paper, Poorer than their Parents. Gary articulates the concepts of this paper so plainly. There is another paper or book I can’t track down called ‘return to the hour glass economy’ , it’s approx 10 years old and I have not been able to trace it, if you know it, it would be great if you let me know

The only fact that you need to know is that our economy is stagnant because ordinary people are poor whilst the extremely rich have never been richer and thus have driven up asset prices so that they are out of reach for ordinary people, thus exacerbating the very problem I just described

[@chilldude30]

I found him a few months ago, and I think he does a good job expressing his analysis. And I think for most people it is self evident that he's right

[@anestors]

Gary has found another way to milk the public, transferring wealth from workers pocket to Gary’s pocket. First his book, publicised via many KZbin appearances, and now a speaking tour. He’s such a successful capitalist, and a real lesson on the importance of hypocrisy in building personal wealth.

[@flakeyjay]

He needs to be broadcasted around the world for all to hear.

[@TheBurdenOfHope]

[@barking_mad6649]

You, Gary and other relevant KZbinrs should form a collective to push this into the public consciousness. It needs a movement that's hard for individual people writing to their MP to do.

[@damianchang6439]

I’ve been following Gary’s channel for a few years now as well as Damien’s and I have to say this was a much needed and great interview. Genuinely though we as nation need to form a new political party as neither the Conservatives, Labour or Lib Dem’s will ever change the status quo and tax the ultra rich. Check out Nigel Farage every time he wants to push his agenda through he creates a new political party, his latest is called Reform. Gary, Damien, Ramin and Nisha would make the great initial members to embolden change. Other activists not withstanding.

[@James_36]

tax the ultra rich to then do what? do you realise that if you liquidated all their net worth and divided it by the people in this country you would get a one time payment of around 3k.. not to mention all the wealth creation and jobs gone which would turn nations back into the stone age. So a wealth tax that gets what % of their INCOME will solve absolutely nothing. Stop being jealous of rich people because it will do you no good in life

[@curmudgeon1933]

Farage is an opportunist grifter. He's already done enough damage to the country, and has lost every election he's ever entered, except as MEP. After sabotaging that, he's now happy to have the UK taxpayer pay his EU pension. Slimy git.

[@optiontrader4512]

Gary and friends the most important use of money is to improve Education of the many so that they can each improve their lives as well as their children's and the nation by participating at a higher level. Taxing the rich has to create the funding of this basic building block that helps every one to perform better. The economies of Finland and Singapore show that this approach has made those countries successful . This gets the buy in from everyone for everyone.

[@T-ROY90]

What f*cking swearing?? one of the best episodes, Great work! Really eye opening, Now which party is willing to tax the rich so we can fix the system a little?

[@pedroluzio6250]

Gary has got a good heart, and you can tell he wants to do good for the future of the country. Never imagined when emigrated to England 11y ago, that you could have in 2024 a cue of hundreds of people trying to get access to dental care (this week in Bristol), or 12h waits to be seen in ED, or schools crumbling. When I look around I see a society progressing towards more inequality. Was lucky enough to buy a home here 10y ago, got friends now doing professional jobs (mostly nurses) working 50h week what cannot afford to get one now. One of the measures could be applied would be the payment of council tax by the owners of property, and make that exponential like 50£ month for 100k flat and 5000£ month for a 10million property, and everybody had to pay that even if the house was empty! That would probably decrease the numbers of empty houses by the rich (think was Garry that mentioned this on his podcast). And the labour party should be taking notes as a measure like this would popular probably to 99% of the population.

[@James_36]

do good is promoting theft to you? wow

[@pedroluzio6250]

What do you mean? I was mentioning due to lack of housing, increasing the council tax according to house value and have no exceptions for people who are loaded £££ and trying to facilitate young families having a place to live.
