Hi poly matter I am very interested in your content Can you tell which animation you are using and make a video on how sports is becoming a billion dollar business?

That sponsor transition was so smooth, just like my face after using the Dollar Shave Club.

and to keep it that way why not purchase dollar shave club membership?

[@abhishekdev258]

Stop shaving Wong.

[@shananagans5]

If you don't have a mustache, doesn't that mean you shave? Or am I Wong to assume that? :) lol Great comment, you had me laughing & I am the 722nd thumbs up.

[@Le_aissa]

That's really what it is all about, we have to get rid of this consumerism mentality they convinced us that our happiness is in buying more and more goods, recently i watched a documentary called "century of the self" it's about the beginning of marketing and the use of mass psychology by big companies to sell more you look it up, after all if you want to understand today you have to search yesterday, have a good day btw

[@ThePsychicProject]

Ive never seen such a drastic improvement in content from your first video and now, nice job PolyMatter

[@captainaffection]

The channel improves just like Amazon does

[@manysaints]

I was worried about replacing my high-end older oasis with this one kzbin.infoUgkxCgPI5O2AtmcHq9SJhgsCGbpAzJAJfrJp but it is surprisingly light and the screen resolution is just as good. I never had the warm light on my old kindle, but i do not use it on the ipad so I will probably not need it. I think the only thing I'll miss is the self-adjusting light, but this is so worth it!

[@teenagegringo393]

I was just talking to my friend who's a bike courier in Seattle. He just found out their app was owned by Amazon. He started asking around and realized that 7 out of 8 of his roomates were also employed by companies that were owned by Amazon.

I disagree, the Amazon is shrinking everyday because of deforestation. Do some research next time.

love how he literally talks about the employees for one sec and the competitors for two. "we may never know why Amazon makes things so cheap" yeah we do. Its to raise prices later. Like they do on every single product after they've ran out the competitors.

I must say, I have mixed feelings of amazon. The fear and admiration for the company are equal in this case. I'm as intrigued as I am terrified

[@johnwalker1058]

For me, Amazon is like Darth Vader as a business. They are the big, bad tough guy villain, but they are quite powerful so you can't help but respect them in a certain way out of admiration of their sheer strength, size, and influence.

How to click bait in the comments section: 1- Make a long list of logical and totally generic things. 2- Put a good title luring readers to think you're aiming for the channel attention but you obviously DON'T. 3- Another generic and mainstream FINALE! (conclusion) Plus: A congratulations message so all the 9yr old kids feel your comment is worthy of approvement. Done, now you're on top of the food chain and you're ready to lure 9yr old kids to your own channel! Need examples? Read more comments above ^^^^^^

Theses videos are so good they are hard to describe the quality of every video of every aspect is phenomenal. You pick the best topics and mix just the perfect amount of humour, detail and information that it's always fun to watch, and I want to watch it. It makes economics a great subject. These videos at this quality are hard to find, but I've found them, encased with gold and silver. It's just amazing what you do. Thanks PolyMatter for this

Just Curious do you have a portfolio? You seem to do a lot of corporate research I would be really curious to hear about your personal trading philosophy.

[@elninotech11]

I work at an Amazon prime now warehouse and before they owned whole foods they had no idea how to order and sell food from the warehouse. They were ordering so much frozen there was nothing we could do with it so they would have to throw it away. Same with the produce especially during summer in a warehouse it speeds up the process of produce rotting. So during winter the produce lasted awhile but they would still order too much. During summer it was the opposite they would order but it wouldn't be enough for the produce getting rotten faster. So we would have days where there weren't bananas for instance. But after they purchased whole foods they lowered their ordering when they had too and everything started revolving better.

[@99carrera]
