  1. 😂 And not surprisingly Connor MacGregor is actually a distant descendant.

  2. People are mostly looking for status symbols. It’s pathetic. If you’re actually cool, you don’t care if your shoes would gain you the most likes.

  3. Connor MacGregor based himself on Gregor MacGregor. lol, that name is like someone named Nick McNick.

  4. The topic really isn’t hand bags though. It’s anti-trust law.

  5. You seemed so much more personable in this episode!

  6.  @CommanderRiker0 Cheap money wasn’t the problem. Cheap $ gives people a chance who weren’t born with billions to create something. The problem is investment banks having access to cheap money (it should be restricted to small businesses) and the banks gambling with depositors’ and investors’ money on a company basic due diligence and common sense would tell you would never work (an easily duplicated model, no assets, no model for making profit and never made profit, etc.).

  7. MacGregor invented NFTs. They just weren’t digital yet. Speaking of which, can you believe people are still falling for those?

  8.  @MM22966  I’m friends with Gregor Gregory Jr. He has the coolest leopard SB Dunks 👟

  9. Let’s not forget about NFTs either.

  10.  @LeXx0r Yeah, but Switzerland is the size of a city. So, it doesn’t really apply.

  11.  @ggg21201  I’m down to crowdfund it.

  12. That’s what she said.

  13. “Payois” / 12,500 square miles is 11.5x the size of Rhode Island. An utterly massive area. It’s probably not appropriate to cal it a “plot of land.”

  14.  @justinsayin3979 But most American states are nearly as large or larger than European countries (the entire EU has only 25% more people despite being far more densely populated). My main point is, imagine calling Belgium or West Virginia just a plot of land. A plot of land implies an area that an individual would own. It’s why I’ve never heard of one measured in square miles rather than acres or hectares.

  15. True luxury goods are not mostly bought by poor people. The wealthy are just getting wealthier. It’s only the middle class and low income classes that keeps getting poorer.

  16. Let’s be honest. It’s not just the low income demos wasting absurd amounts of money on luxury brands. It’s just that the low income demo is especially focused on well known luxury brands because they seek the status symbol more than the wealthy.

  17.  @JRRob3wn  That’s ridiculous I agree. But overall this is just another example of the .1 engaging in divide and conquer tactics to distract from the fact that they’re the ones sucking up all our wealth.

  18.  @kokojambo4944 The strength of a country’s financial services’ capital has about zero relevance to how well 95% of its citizens are doing as well as the gov’s financial health. The fact that so few people realize that or that the stock market now little relation to the the economy they are dependent, except for when it gets extremely bad while they profit little more during bull markets.

  19. There were boys as young as 8 who served in the British Navy. Though obviously they had a different status to adults.

  20. A) Congress should outlaw shoring. No one besides billionaires and major stockholders would object to such legislation. B) AI, on balance, has very little benefit for humanity besides making billionaires wealthier, helping some small businesses but hurting way more small businesses and contractors.

  21. Hunter’s trading model was quite literally the same as if I went long on Country Time Lemonade EVERY summer because people drink lemonade during summer.

  22.  @MM22966  True enough.

  23. And the scams people fall for today. And not just those absurd Indian Amazon and “back customer service” scams, but the wealthy are constantly falling for BS investments. They’re just too embarrassed to admit to those they’ve fallen for most of the time, unless they reach a certain size.

  24.  @williamhatfield8935  Musk is another great conman, but in a bit of different vein. While a lot of his projects are nonsense and he endlessly lies and distorts, his biggest products and projects have created value. However, his companies are exponentially overvalued because he has a billion+ everyday people who think he’s like a Tesla or Edison level inventor who can’t miss.

  25. The Supreme Court is now dominated by justices who are brazenly corrupt and smirk at the government’s inability to do anything about it. So, yeah, the root of the problem is in control of the problem.

  28. You could actually join the British Navy as young as 8 years old. Maybe you meant 17 was the youngest age at which you could purchase a commission. Did Connor MacGregor model himself on Gregor MacGregor? It’s hard to blame the guy for pretending to be a noble since you basically couldn’t advance without capital or access to the aristocracy who didn’t achieve anything by being born with a title. However, the rest was despicable.

  29. It’s not that they’re uninformed. They just desperately need/want the campaign funds.

  30. This is the best video on YouTube. lmao, this was a masterclass of sarcasm using just the most basic of common sense. I mean the place would be awesome if a child’s fantasy could be turned into reality at the snap of a finger.

  31. Even if they could even half of what they said it would include, I’d live there. Sadly, we can’t built 200km long holodecks yet.

  32.  @davidshatto7604 lol, I bet 70% of people thought you were being serious.

  33.  @dawnfire82 It’s easy to generate massive profits when you have massive capital. And, the middle classes have paid a far larger % of their income to taxes than the wealthy since the ‘80s.
