The Dark Secret Behind Those Omaze Giveaways - How Money WorksSign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈If you have watched YouTube… at all… in the last year or so you have no doubt know what Omaze is…For the few of you who don’t, they are an organisation that promotes lotteries for all manner of different items and experiences, ranging anywhere from a chance to win a Lamborghini all the way to an exclusive Star Wars set tour before it hit theatres.This all sounds very cool especially when it is revealed that all of the proceeds from these lotteries go on to support charities. To date the company has raised over 130 MILLION DOLLARS for charities that do everything from providing scholarships to orphaned children, to installing solar power in remote African communities.Surely it would be pretty hard to hate on an organisation like this right?Well…You see despite this chirpy exterior of flashy cars and warm fuzzies, Omaze is hiding a pretty dark secret. So it’s time to learn how your money works in these raffled because also reveals a lot about how an alarming amount of charitable organizations conduct themselves in the modern day.So before we go any further the first thing you need to know about is that it is a For Profit Institution, which means that its primary goal is not to feed the homeless or save the spotted owl, it’s to make money…It makes this money by representing organizations that are themselves non profits, but they are not one themselves.Now there is nothing fundamentally wrong with this, if feeding America held a charity gala in a Hilton Hotel nobody would have any issues with Hilton hotels later going on to turn a profit that’s fine.Where Omaze starts to push it’s luck though is that it really doesn’t make any effort to stress this relationship.Just think, when your favorite YouTuber was talking about a car giveaway, they probably spoke a lot about Omaze, and the great work it was doing, but just think, do you remember any of the charities that these charities were actually meant to fund?If you do, you certainly have a better memory than me.This is no accident.The company spends millions of dollars on marketing every year and trust me if they wanted you to hear about the actual non-profits, you would have heard about the actual non-profits.The company would instead like for you to conflate with saving the children, more so than running lotteries to make fat stacks, and trust me they do make fat stacks.#Omaze #NonProfit #HowMoneyWorksOmaze lottery fund raising raffle giveaway some lamborghinis and ferraris to winners of this entry free prize money and then money towards good causes and local charities.Follow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.

To kick off the new Year, Mark Zuckerberg (a man who is definitely not having a mid life crisis) announced that Dana White, the President and CEO of the Ultimate Fighting Championship had been elected to Meta’s board of directors.

The decision was met with some… “mixed”... Reactions from company employees and stakeholders.

But what most people don’t realise is that this decision is really not that unusual…

The board of the Embattled Boeing Corporation recently appointed Mortimer J Buckley, the Former CEO of the Vanguard Group, who ALSO serves on the board of Pfizer, alongside James Quincey, the CEO of the Coca Cola company who also serves on its board, alongside Bela Bajara, the Chief Content Officer of Netflix, who serves under a board which includes Anne Sweeney, the former chairman of of FX Networks who worked under Tony Vinciquerra the Chairman of the Fox Networks GROUP, who currently serves on the board of Qualcomm, a company formerly managed by Steven Mollenkopf… who currently sits on the board of directors of Boeing…

It’s a great big club… and you ain’t in it…

Late last month, the paragon of wise economic decisions… Greece… introduced a SIX day forty-eight-hour work week.

The country did this at the same time as its European neighbours have been successfully experimenting with shorter four-day work weeks, but the Greek government has insisted that this new change is the key to tuning its economy around by simply working harder than everyone else.

It’s a bold strategy, and for the sake of working conditions everywhere we better hope it doesn’t work… unfortunately, it just might…

It’s very easy for Greek workers to find jobs that pay better in other countries because as a member of the European Union they are free to reside and work across borders with very few restrictions.

In order to correct for this loss of manpower the government has decided to introduce a six-day work week to make up for all the workers who have left the country and to support all the elderly people who can no longer support themselves.

By raw arithmetic their logic makes sense… kind of…

Output is the hourly productivity of a worker multiplied by how many hours they work. If Greece has fewer workers, it can increase its output by just getting those who are left to work even longer and harder.

Instead of magically creating high paying jobs like promised, what this new law is really about is squeezing the most out of workers on the other end of the pay scale.

Retail, transport, construction and hospitality are jobs where companies just need someone behind a counter or on the tools for as many hours of operation as possible to serve customers periodically.

A large share of what’s left of the Greek workforce are in these types of roles, and businesses are ALREADY demanding a lot of extra hours from their employees.

It won’t make workers work harder, it won’t create high paying jobs, it won’t improve productivity, it will drive away what few young workers the country has left, it will lower hourly wages and create terrible working conditions for the whole country.

It’s all around a terrible policy, but unfortunately, it’s not just Greece doing this.

So it’s time to learn How Money Works to find out why the six day work week might be catching on… everywhere…

Why Do Family Fortunes Disappear? - How Money WorksSign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈John D Rockefeller was the richest American to ever live, as well as being the founding member of the three-comma club as the worlds first billionaire.At the height of his fortune a few years before his death he was worth an estimated 1 billion dollars which may not sound like much compared to today's tech bro’s, but this was back in a time where the USA’s annual GDP was only 39.1 billion dollars.This meant that his fortune was 3% of America’s GDP. Adjusted for inflation to 2020 dollars this would give ol John D here a fortune of 450 billion dollars. Or more than Elon, Bill, and Jeff combined.But where is this fortune today?Of course John himself died almost a century ago but if there was any fortune that was going to indefinitely set up future generations surely it would be this one right?The same goes for most of these historic moguls, the fortunes of everybody from carnage, to the medici have more or less faded into total obscurity, outside of maybe a few names plastered on random buildings… (buildings that they don’t even own mind you)…Now you might think you already know the answer, oh these fortunes get split up amongst children and then children’s children and then children’s children’s children until it was spread so thin amongst latter generations that it became almost totally irrelevant.But that’s not entirely true… What’s more is that the real reason for the fall of these financial empires can tell us a lot about how money works as it has been passed down through generations and history.#Wealth #Finance #HowMoneyWorksFollow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.

The Growing Problem With Personal Finance YouTuber "Influencers"Sign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈I have some bad news for you…You are probably not going to be rich.Not a particularly positive message to start a video on but its something that people need to hear from time to time.Unfortunately, this is not something that most people want to hear, so there is no shortage of people out there that will tell you exactly the opposite, normally as a way to pitch you some kind of product.Now of course most of you watching know that the YouTube ads saying that you can earn 6 figures in a month by selling on Amazon, Forex trading, or flipping real estate are full of shit.But they still all follow a pretty similar routine,hey, you can get richas long as you are willing to do XYZwhile listening to the advice I give you!Again when it turns out that this advice is something that you have to pay for, most people get wise to the fact that it’s all just a massive scam.Of course some don’t, which is tragic and there really genuinely should be more done about this, but that’s a story for another time… or a Coffeezilla video.Instead the focus of this video will be on a group of internet guru’s with much more influence, a much larger following, and much more credibility, the personal finance personalities.So it’s time to learn how money works and find out why you probably shouldn’t be learning to work your money like these popular YouTubers might suggest.#PersonalFinance #Investing #HowMoneyWorks___________________________________________________________________________Music by Epidemic SoundLinks to all channels mentioned in this videoMeet Kevin - https://www.youtube.com/c/MeetKevin
