So Expensive Season 6 Marathon | Business Insider

[@jeannie4424]

To see the pride of these craftsmen is wonderful. Pride in one's trade, and learning a skill is a dying art. My Grandfather was a master carpenter. Back in our childhood, girls just did not do that. I loved watching him, the smell of lumber, and the skill he had.

[@fayyadh92]

this is my first time watching this series and the question that kept popping up into my head for each item is not "why is it so expensive?" but instead "why are they still poor?"

[@fayyadh92]

damn the seller price is the one that is high, no wonder they look poor... like the cashew... 250%?? jeez~

Watching this while hand sewing a quilt makes me feel proud to be creating something with my own hands.

[@kayjay2588]

Agreed. My sister belonged to a quilting circle that was very "high end" and each piece was auctioned, or "raffled" off for a local Hospice. They lost members of that circle, and it was so sad for them all around. The craft and money lost on many levels, from those who weaved, vendors, and lastly the Benevolent fund at the Hospice. Just not enough people to keep it going. Sending you Positive blessings, and hoping all crafters can pass their skills on to future generations.

Stone Crab Claw harvest doesn't work as well in practice. It's very uncommon to harvest a crab a 2nd time. Which is why most of the footage shows the crabs are shown with both claws on them. The reason why some claws are smaller than others is simply because 1 claw grows larger as the dominant claw, IT'S NOT a regenerated claw. If those crabbers truly cared about the sustainability of their product, they would have used a device to remove claws without risking the joint from being damaged. Snapping off the claw by hand would never guarantee the crab doesn't bleed out. They only hear on paper how the job works, but they clearly never seem to care about how to ensure their harvest is sustainable.

So many great things being made in this video the only bad thing is manybarent given the avenue to make enough money to actually afford most of these things its fine to charge that money cause of the process and which work is needed for the product. But countries and governments horde money and give very little to its people and citizens.

What's extremely ironic is that the very people whose hands create or process these super expensive products remain to live in poverty. Where did all the money go? I think you all know the answer.

[@IlluminaAssel]

That's just the point of our system... We are living in a world, where a few rich families can rule the world, by buying corrupt politicians who will do anything to stop real politicians, with true visions, from climbing up the ranks, till they would have real power, because if they would be able to climb that high, they would realize what a shit show is going on all over the world.. And these ruling rich families have installed an exclusive economy, together with the lower rich families, where all these handcrafted products are getting sold for prices higher than anyone of us could ever afford, while they bought the products from highly skilled but poor people, in countries without any help from the law. We, the luxury slaves are another level of slaves. We can profit from the system, because the poorest of the world will craft our cheap goods. Without them, the money the rich people. Are giving to us for our work, wouldn't last very long... We wouldn't be able to afford anything without these poorest of all economy slaves. So they are stuffing us with iPhones and oder useless crap, so that we spend all our life's working for them, just to spend the hard earned money for the products they are giving to us.. All these things are creating a hell of a spiral, where all the money will flow back to the rich ones and every now and then someone from us will make it to the upper ranks. This mechanism is just there to keep us calm and let us think, that anyone cna make it, as long as we work hard and give our best, what's pure bullshit. If everybody on the planet would give his best all day and go ot9 collage, making just perfect scores, getting super good titles and do anything, to do everything not just good, but perfect... In the. End, that would change nothing. There aren't enough well paid jobs for everybody and so the double doc in medicine and psychology would have to work for Starbucks and seep vodfe tho those, who had enough luck to get one of the rare jobs that where made for their expertise. Also there isn't enough money, to make anyone happy. Every dollar that is laying on the bank accounts of the rich ones, isn't there to be earned anymore. It is unreachable for us, because as long as they won't spend it, it's gone for our economy and the next point is, that most of the people have high loan's on their backs... So there isn't just not enough money to earn, there is to much minus to be nullified. The money that is reachable for the lower classes, wouldn't ever be enough to just nullify the minus of the many credits. In fact that means that someone has to lose everything, so that another person can earn the lost money, to nullify the credit running on his or her name or to earn enough to live a normal life, without permanent fear. So we can see... It's a big lie. We are fucked, because the people here won't bite the hand that pretended to feed us, while it robbed anything from us to be truth.. And the people in other countries, like Africa and India, are that poor, that they are to involved in surviving the next day, to start a real revolution. People of the west are stupid enough to think they can benefit from the system and the others are to poor, to have time to the en think about changing the system and all together we are manipulated and surpressed. And that's also the reason why these excellent working and skilled. People are poor, while their ridiculously well done work is getting sold for millions or thousands of dollars...

If 5 people work on one lotus silk scarf for 5 hours each, and the scarf is sold for $200, that’s $8 per hour. The products produced take a significant amount of time and materials, which both take money. A knife requires metal, costing money, equipment, costing money, and labor time, costing money. While these products are very high quality, the input costs are more or less equal to the amount made. Mass-produced products are of inferior quality, but unless someone needs the expensive version for some reason (i.e. professional violinists need top-quality bows) there’s no real reason to shell out significantly more money for what amounts to basically the same product to most people.

Truth! The whole polyunsaturated fat scam was & is a way to use waste products as "food". Much like other industries, regulatory capture has resulted in Americans being sicker, fatter & more dependent on medicines than other populations. Win-win for big pharma. If folks really knew how corrupt corporations have become, the crap would hit the fan!

[@theeccentric7263]

Also, most things in moderation aren’t bad for you. Even if saturated fats were negative health-wise, eating coconut oil in moderation will probably be fine unless you have an allergy.

So that's where the word 'Agarbatti' comes from. Agarbatti are incense sticks used in Puja by us.

Muslims got it with them to India along with attar , its fine you use it for your Puja.

[@vishnu4234]

@@altruistization 🤦 We have mentions of incense from initial Vedic period i.e. atleast 2000-1500 BCE. The word Agar has a Sanskrit root, meaning Aroma. There were trades between Indian subcontinent and SE Asia. SE asian languages are heavily influenced by Sanskrit. About the sticks, there is no chance Muslims brought to India. It must be Buddhists because they started the tradition of making incense sticks in China and wandered from Indian subcontinent to East and SE asia.

I'm sorry but on the the leather topic... the chrome tanned leather doesn't use chrome. It uses chromium an incredibly toxic chemical.

[@Automedon2]

chromium sulfate to be precise. And if it was that incredible toxic, we'll all be dead because 99%of shoes, jackets and handbags are chrome tanned leather

[@Alucard45000]

Where did you get this information? Chromium can cause respiratory track irritation when inhaled.. Its not an incredible toxic chemical.. It can cause cancer if exposed for to long, but if you didn't know there can be found chromium in several types of food and even in drinking water. There are even chromium supplement you can take..

[@mehere8038]

so the smell from leather, is that from the hide or the chromium sulfate? Cause I get sick from leather, but still love it as a material, so if I got vegetable leather, would that be usable to me, without giving me the migraines I get from regular stuff?

[@Automedon2]

@@mehere8038 I've been in the leather business for 25 years so I barely even notice the smell anymore, but at one point I had a store selling jackets. I got a batch made in China, and by the end of the day my eyes would be swollen red from the fumes coming off it, so God knows what chemical they used. Veg tanned leather has a great natural leather smell and I doubt anything about it would make you sick, but all garments and upholstery and (except from the very expensive ) shoes are chromium tanned leather. Veg tanned is the stiff leather you'd find in a horse saddle, belts, etc..

[@mehere8038]

@@Automedon2 ah, thanks :) & that kinda answers my question, cause I react to horse stuff too :( I do have lots of allergies, including to natural stuff as well as artificial chemicals, so I guess it's probably the leather itself for me :( That's great info, cause it saves me researching if I can buy veg tanned stuff to avoid my issue, (and wasting a LOT of money on it) I guess not :( very much appreciate your reply!

You realize the crabs do that to each other during fights right?? I'm not sure if you noticed that a few only had one and the reason they learned to regrow them is because they'd rip them off each other while fighting.

Why? They grow back.

[@duncanmoore3780]

@@1alayzzia My thinking is this, even if they do regenerate their limbs- how long before they do? In the meantime, how do they feed themselves if we take both claws? The risk of that double amputee surviving long enough to regenerate is very risky imo, take one, not both I say especially if it takes 3 years to grow a proper length claw.

Not sure where the error originated but the Japanese knife section has a mistake in the translation regarding the layers of the sword. "soft iron in the inside. hard steel on the outside". it is the other way around, as explained in the following seconds of the clip regarding chef knives. Hard iron goes on the inside to provide a structured and sharp edge, the softer cladding provides the elasticity to prevent snapping.

[@gersonandrescuevaspierola1390]

About the purple bamboo salt... You say it's infused with the bamboo oil's "good stuff", yet, how can you be sure any of that "good stuff" remains, and not burned out by the multiple baking processes, the last one being the hottest, so hot the whole salt batch melts and merges into one big chunk? I believe it's more likely to be a deeply smoke infused salt, than "oil" infused. Still, i wouldn't sell it as a "medicinal" product. Asian luxury's worth is known to be more based on common belief and tradition, more than actual facts, some even being more harmful than beneficial, like it happens with coconut oil. 🤷

27:52 the people saying coconut oil treats Alzheimer's don't, in fact, say that the effect is because of antioxidant content. Instead, the proposed mechanism is that the medium-chain triglycerides in the coconut oil are processed into ketones in the liver regardless of insulin (unlike longer-chain fats, which only turn into ketones when insulin is low), and the ketones serve as an alternative fuel source for the brain. That's important because there's some evidence suggesting that Alzheimer's is partly caused by persistent insulin resistance in brain tissue depriving nerves of glucose.
