Be careful with the music, mate. It only distracts from the lesson.
Yeah and also some of the other shorts share the same music as the “sigma males” and Andrew Tate videos which I’m sure Steve doesn’t understand but as an 18 year old, I don’t think he wants to be associated with those videos at all. It’s pretty funny though hearing macro theory and then the same music that’s played for the “alpha male” videos come on.
Also Steve, I know you hired a marketing agency to handle all the marketing, but you might as well post these YouTube shorts on TikTok and Instagram reels; they fit the same format and could increase your outreach by a ton.
I think they're doing that Jacob, but I'll check. BTW, the marketing firm volunteered their services, in return for a share of the revenue from the lecture series they're marketing for me, in very generous offer (including a failsafe for me in case they don't meet their sales targets). Though their marketing language isn't exactly my style, I like and respect the principles (and principals) of the firm itself.
@ProfSteveKeen I hope it all goes well. Cheers
Interest is still wealth transfer from labor upwards to creditors. Interest and inflation free money is a necessary step to remove crisis, because interest exponentially bloats “savings” of creditors. Imports also vanish “currency”. With interest, servicing the debt becomes insane, eventually the creditor class can claim too much wealth and too few can take on credit. Freigeld schemes have worked
How do we defend against frozen assets?
Thanks for the book I picked what's app for the delivery. To be honest the process feels like someone trying to impersonate Steve and scam you but it's a legit honest attempt to get comic into people's hands and explain something most will find boring AF in a funny simple way. Cheers Steve
Thanks Elliot. Yes, their approach is quite foreign to mine, but I'll happily vouch for the ethics and hard work ethos on this group. And they're reached an audience that I could never access, so it's been a worthwhile exercise.
