@Dan Provide a detailed explanation to qualify your statement. Your literary ability is below that of students age 8 Secondly, you cannot distinguish the difference between a statement and a question. Learn the purpose of question marks. Undertake an extensive reading program to better educate yourself.
I remember first watching this for the first time and I still come back to it. The entire series is brilliantly done and I believe should be a requirement for any finance class in both high school and college.
absolutely a beautiful presentation you have created mike, Isn't it crazy that all you need is a whiteboard, marker, duster and you brains to printout a new order/way of making up real value into the society and just follow the blueprint. That's how this system has gone up. All the money only goes back to the riches and the consequence is people are working hard to circulate it back to the rich people.
Stealing has always been one of man's greatest past times. The only problem is that thieves hate it when others steal from them. It is the honesty of others that the thief depends on for his sustainance.
I’ve been sharing this for years, snd of course I’m here for the banking crisis copy paste episode 4! I notice today you have revised with bank run! Excellent work Mike! Thanks for all you have done for my education. Fellow dyslexic.
@Daylight Sagacious Gods kingdom. Ecclesiastes 8:9 'All of this I have seen, and I applied my heart to every work that has been done under the sun, during the time that man has dominated man to his harm'.
Bro this system is what has lifted billions of people out of poverty. Banks have always worked like this. It gathers money and pays you an interest fee for the privilege. It then loans it out to someone who wishes to buy something with it and that the bank believes it will pay it back with a higher interest to make their profits.
Investors buying bonds is not accurately represented in this video. This is the change that occured since 2008 - Fed buying more and more bonds instead of investors - suppressing interest rates and increasing money supply. Resulting in: even more reckless government spending and asset inflation
@Gregory Dorsey Thank you, most people don't realize the price (product per currency) is actually a ratio. Changes to either side can cause inflation/deflation.
This has been a great reminder of what I learned years ago. Learning about this, is good to know how to protect oneself through investing in something like precious metals, sure. But this system strikes me as something that only works for a small percentage of people who do so. This is to say, it looks inevitable based on this system, that many will have to fail, in order for a few to win. Like the stock market - mathematically, you HAVE to have losers for small percentage to win. Seems like it forces you to serve yourself, essentially at the expense of other people who remain ignorant of how it works. Am I wrong?
Astounding, very well put together, extremely informative and very helpful. It's interesting that students of economics don't get taught this stuff! Thanks for the exposure.
I had a uni lecture back in 2004 and I questioned why the balance of trade was always a deficit in countries. Someone must make more than they spend I said. Nope that's just the way it is said the lecturer. Then 2008 financial crash happened.
Awesome video Mike and great to watch it again after the bank failures in recent days. Funny how those safe government bonds have now become the toxic assets that cause banks to become insolvent!. They should have put their excess deposits into gold.
Great and brave work putting this together. I am almost sad just seeing this now, almost feel cheated that I didn't get the knowledge earlier. but better late than never. thanks, Mike
Thanks to Mike, two years ago I pulled all cash from the banks I had invested in and bought gold and silver. I have kept sufficient cash (vaulted for safety) in the event of a sudden crash. Having retired, I had no debt. 😀Today, with banks failing and the monetary system starting to crash, I can only thank Mike for keeping me safe. I can never thank you enough, Mike.
This should be mandatory viewing in schools, along with “Money masters - How international bankers gained control of america” People don’t realize The Federal Reserve Isn’t Federal And There Are No Reserves
Why? What difference will it make? Knowing the fundamental flaws in a system doesn’t change the fact it has been an integral component in providing the highest living standards in human history.
The information in this video will give anyone a paradigm shift to the harsh reality of our financial system. 5 years later, I still come back to this video at least once every 6 months, life changing information.
I'm probably going to sound very condescending here, but what I find really heart breaking is how people can spend their entire lives working hard, and paying taxes, and yet never even ask the question: " what is money?" or worse yet get answers such as "it's what you use to buy things" or "it's a piece of paper with the Queens head on." both answers describe what it looks like, and how it's used, it doesn't answer what it is... If everyone just spent 30 minutes watching this to get some degree of understanding to that very simple question, maybe, just maybe, it would make people stop and think for a second...but no, it's far more important to watch Britain's got Talent, then to think about aspects that directly affect every aspect of modern life.
The bank makes a profit when the fed pays them interest on the reserves held at the fed? At 21:15 I don’t understand what does this mean? Someone please explain
This video is pure gold! Although I already knew all that, I've never seen such a magnificent explanation in video. Congratulations on this wonderful work! I'm Brazilian, and I volunteer to fully translate it to Portuguese in case it hasn't been done yet.
@REDEN JR PAMAYBAY well, but what about population growth and economy growing? How do you account for that? If you used gold, then investing wouldn't make sense, because value of the gold would increase over time, so spending would be bad. Only reason to invest in new projects is that money loses value. Just look at deflation of currency, where instead of decreasing in value, the value of money increases. Thats really bad when that Happens, you really don't want your country to go through that. For quality of life, 1-5% inflation is perfect, but more is kinda bad and negative inflation is really really bad. Just look at deflationary economics, you will find that in those, the currency becomes almost unusable. If you think that gold standard and deflationary currency is good, then you are stupid and have no clue about economics. It would work for some years, but in a decade it would fall apart and the country would be in a really bad shape. No way to deal with any big crisis, investment in anything, especially infrastructure will no longer be viable and the circulation of currency would slow drastically and most companies would fall apart or stop expanding... Gold/silver standard is really really bad. If you are so sure about it, you can try to show me some convincing economic research papers, but it is just not viable.. it sounds nice, but when you look into it in more depth, you will find out that under the surface, its actually a really terrible idea. Show me 1 country in 19th century or later where it worked well for at least 50 years.. there is none. Fiat is a great thing and it improved so many lifes. I understand why people don't trust it, but if you understood economics, then you would know that there just isn't anything better. For gold standard.. would it work? Yeah Would it work well? Maybe for a year, but after that it would be a sht show..
Thanks for sharing this knowledge with rest of the world. I live in Italy and went to college in the US but of course nobody taught me this in the Macroeconomics class. I already knew about the multiplier created by fractional reserve lending but you explained it so well is much clearer now. The entire system is basically built on TRUST. If we all go to withdraw all our money from the banks, the system would simply collapse, in the US, Europe or even Russia and China for that matter. But then what? The point is I guess to find a way to change the system avoiding the armageddon. At the point where we stand the system seems impossible to fix. Derivatives are worth maybe 20 times the entire world GDP, thanks to the fictional money, ehm sorry CURRENCY, creation which started after Bretton Woods and that wildly accelerated with deregulation of the 90's. So the QUESTION is how to fix the problem without creating the worst financial crisis of all times?
I am very interested and also invested into insurance/financial companies and Fractional Reserve Lending makes me love this business model even more! I thought they mostly use the deposit money for short/mid term bonds with higher interest rates than giving to the depositor, but damn this way of creating money out of thin air is insane! I wonder if the insurance industry makes similar tricks and what are they called.

I am a pensioner reliant upon the government. But since watching your video's I have just short of 100 ounces of silver, a few gramms of bullion gold, and prepping food. I buy my grandkids a silver coin instead of toys for thier birthdays to try to save themselved, they love the coins and look forward to grandads visits. Having said that Mike, I would not have begun, even at this late time of my life, without listening to you. Thankyou
One of the most powerful videos ever. Thank you so much for your tireless efforts Mike. I share this regularly and continue to inform as many people as possible. Your work is a great inspiration for all.
Thank YOU for joining the discussion, first explained in the Zeitgeist films. Keep going you are close to 'getting' it. Buying gold and silver is a hoax as well. Our economic system must change, lol. Loved you on Bewitched btw.
Last year my son bought his first fixer-upper house and had to pay 100,000 over asking because this is what the market was dictating. Now their variable rate mortgage went up 4% while house values are declining. The bank says; don't worry, we will just increase your amortization. As a family, they have a combined income of 170 a year and they are now stretched to make ends meet, gas, groceries, heating, maintenance, daycare have all increased with inflation. This is becoming a common story and it is simply tyrannical that our system has come to this point while the banks and Wall St. are making obscene profits year after year. Money is meant to be used as a means of exchange, not as a means of enslavement.
Thank you for this wealth of information… now we need to somehow educate others regarding this issue. Nonetheless I knew that “they” were stealing from us “legally” and unfortunately with ‘other’ information encountered… I knew about that ‘hidden secret’ and who is in control of it all. But doing a counter measure and spearheading their intentions will require a unique approach.
MINDBLOWING! This is by far the best video I've seen about the enslaving monetary system. Now it's up to us people to spread the word all around the world and break free from the enslavement of mankind.
Wake Up! The vid is an over-simplification designed to provoke angst. Whenever a vid pretty much starts with "....they don't want you to know this...." then you can be sure it is a conspiracy theory that's disguising a weakly predicated financial almost scam-like advert. And, YES, indeed, there it is, at the end, is the advert - for his favoured "GoldSilver" outlet. His vid was made 9 years ago, now go and compare the growth in value of Gold with growth of just about any real-economy index.

Hey there, Mike. This video was incredible and terrifying. Explaining the US monetary system in 30 minutes is quite a feat and you did it so well. I learnt a term a couple of years ago called the 'financialisation of the economy'. This video perfectly sums it up. The bulk of modern economies are built on financial institutions due to this game of smoke and mirrors at play. Finance shouldn't be as wishy washy (complicated) as it is now. You mentioned 1913 and that was when the world stepped away from the 'gold standard'. So simple and understandable. "How much gold do you have in reserve?" It's fungible, tangible and understandable.
Matt, don't get sucked in. Sorry, but no. In fact the vid is an over-simplification designed to provoke angst. Whenever a vid pretty much starts with "....they don't want you to know this...." then you can be sure it is a conspiracy theory that's disguising a weakly predicated financial almost scam-like advert.

Mike, your contributions to open, free and valuable education is every bit equal to the very best of your contemporaries, in fact, in my summation , FAR BEYOND.
Hi Mike, I live in England but your video will be just as relevant to us as it is to you Americans. I'm no expert in financial things, but I always wondered how the economy went up and down. I had this idea that there were some little men hiding away who had trillions of money; they were the ones who lent Governments money, they never expected the principal to be repaid, they were getting enough interest. Now, your video explains where the money comes from; nowhere. I wondered how things went up and down, when the amount of oil, gas, bread, bricks, timber, were roughly the same. What pushed it up or down? We saw the value of companies plunge or rocket up or down, because some writer wrote something about the loss or gain of a customer. What? Oh, well we have to keep going and pay our taxes. Thanks for your truly amazing video, It explained so much about this crazy world we live in.

This video is very well put together and concise. It explains why the working class will NEVER get ahead in an easy to understand format. I shared it right away. Thanks for making this Mike!

This is something I learned from my grandfather on my teens in late 90's and I've ever since traded my currency for real money mainly silver and a bit of gold. and in this time price of gold has risen about 5 times it's worth or should I say currency has devalued to one fifth of it's value. In a span on 25 years.
@Zoran Asking an honest question here, but isn't it already digital money. In the video he say currency is just a collection of numbers, and the majority is crated by banks keeping required deposits and lending out the rest which builds on the digital currency. I'm sure there is something I'm missing where digital currency probably makes this problem worse.
@Zoran you keep thinking that while you "invest" in your buttcoins what possible use you have for medium of trade that can't be turned off by pressing a button remotelly.
I have watched this a few times but always have the same question!: What in hell can we do that stops this? Try to protect ourselves, fine; but can the system be demolished?
wow this video is mindblowing, like the first video on KZclip iv seen in months that has actually educated me! (not just trump and hillary slating each other!). It's a credit to you that you have somehow managed to make sense of this corrupt system.
The bank makes a profit when the fed pays them interest on the reserves held at the fed? I don’t understand what does this mean? Someone please explain It’s at 21:15
trump knows this truth, which is why he is trying to cushion the economy with as many jobs as he can and less regulations to help cushion the inevitable fall. this is also why they are trying to block him every step of the way, flood the borders, spend us into oblivion, create more wars and take out the countries who refuse the central bank... and so on and so forth
esco bar yeah those people are part of the system though aren't they? the system is not part of them. You adapt the system to stop the corruption. Blaming individual people for this mess is futile.
He actually quotes the banks in the video. This is not some secret. This is the way money is created and no one denies it. Do you trust The American Life? They had an episode on how money is created: www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/423/the-invention-of-money Or are they part of the conspiracy to sell gold? If you know better then please tell us: how is money created? Which claim is incorrect?
Thank you so much Mike! As always, I keep saying that I need to put this in my mind... and then forget. This time I am going to keep on it so it's ingrained into my wallet in the head !
Wonderful! Well presented clear , concise and informative above all correct, thanks I have waited all my life for this information yet I didn't know what it was I was waiting for. Thank you again I can't thank you enough.
This is indeed eye opening. But with everything encroached so much in this system, how do we as a society get free of it and especially with so many powerful few who have vested interest in keeping this system going?

Great topic and video too. I buy stocks for different reasons. Some to hold onto forever. Others for a quick profit or just to hedge against inflation, spread my money across. I'd appreciate tips on best stocks for dividend income amidst a crash/recession, thanks.
thanks for clearing that up. I curiously searched for Eleanor Annette Eckhaus on the internet and thankfully, I came across her website, my goal is to retire in 5 years.
@ayam blaze I've shuffled through portfolio coaches and personally, Eleanor Annette Eckhaus turned out to be best, you must have come across her before on the blog. I haven't met anyone with as much conviction and her fees in comparison to my portfolio outcome is very cheap.
with limited exposure to worldwide trade tensions could shine in the coming months with investors reallocating capital out of growth plays and into safe havens. I'm getting nothing less than $50k per month from my investments and i'm in safe hands of diversification when it comes to risk management.
dividend-paying stocks are attracting renewed buying interest in reaction to trade war escalation, maybe you should discuss with a real inv-coach for guidance, one with at least 10 years experience.
Thanks for such concise explanation of our monetary system. It seems to me that the system is not bad, the problem is when money borrowed is spent towards destruction or enrichment of the few. For example, if you borrow money for advancement of science then your kids and grand-kids may avoid death due to pandemic, avoid cancer alltogether or live healthy longer. TL;DR where the system needs improving is money allocation and wealth distribution.
Thank You this was very enlightening. I was watching this with my cousin in Japan, it upset her greatly. I had to stop it as she was preparing to perform in the Ballet the Nutcracker during the Christmas season and was under enough pressure as it was. I read the book the Monster from Jekel Island a few years back, this is a very good compliment to that book.
Until now I was thinking logically that deposits help fight inflation since you don't spend the money and it isn't circulating the market that much, but it turns out it's completely the opposite making several times move money out of thin air due to the fractional reserve banking!
So grateful for you and people like you continuing the good fight even if it seems pointless. Knowledge is power, wish everyone world wide had to watch this
I’ve never been so thrown back by a KZclip video in my life. I’ve been shouting at my screen for the entirety of this video. Wtf. It feels strange watching this entire series for free. Mike Maloney is goated
This is an extremely enlightening and terrifying video. It provides an easily understood explanation of the workings of today’s financial system. Can you provide a similar product demonstrating the impact of the CBDC on the financial system and our individual freedoms? Such a video might provide the public with the knowledge to fight the implementation of CBDC.

It is likely that they hold significant influence over the decision-making process for nuclear weapons. I'd love to know how we find a way to transition to a new financial system without causing widespread destruction, as those in power may prioritize protecting their wealth even if it requires causing mass casualties.
@MeLtedLogiK That's the crappy thing. It'd depend on trusting billions of people to have common sense and understand what value truly is. Best I can tell, not even 1% of the population has even questioned the meaning of the word 'value.' I have zero faith in this problem being solved. It's literally the most important thing humanity does (trade) and people can't be bothered to even think about it. Everyone knows it's fucked and still ignore me when I talk about it
Unfortunately the frontliners likely to get hurt in an arm robbery are the workers described in the video who slave it out for the corporations. Those hackers who hacked the banking systems a few years ago on the other hand, are legends... *wink

@Erwin Miranda That's only true if the interest you pay on your debt is less than the inflation. If inflation is 8% , but you pay 20% interest on your credit card debt, then you are losing.
The system might be faulty, but I've never seen so many people whining about paying taxes (I would have understood complaining about too high taxes, not paying them as a whole) than in any other place.. Although system is inefficient, to a degree there's some sense in paying them, or civilization would exist.. And thus all your pretty technological gadgets you pay for and can't live without, i.e. anything you watch a youtube video with
Love the video , here in England we tend to follow in Americas for steps , we too have a corrupt and unfair system .I bet you could make a good video on Britains banking system as old as it is
@Goldsilver Hello Mike, Thank you for this wonderful eye-opening, easy to digest, presentation you did a great job! I do have one question: in the case with FED which is a privatised central bank like the one in few other counties like UK and switzerland it is complete theft that they get to pay dividens to their shareholders (private) out of the profits which are esentially interest on the money created for the system to use and paid by the public taxes. What about the case when the central bank is government owned like the RBA in Australia, ECB, Chinese or Russian central banks and then these banks pay dividends to the government (public) out of the profits that they make, any comments on this case?
How the hell is this channel not being removed yet just blows my mind, he's literally spilling all the beans. Besides the guys running the world have done a very clever job of creating a system so complicated that an average man with an iq of 100 could barely understand it, that's if someone explains it to him, which is a really really smart move
I have been trying to explain this to anyone who would listen for over a decade. Almost no one is able to understand it well enough to know they should care. This was a very good explanation, clearest I’ve heard in a while. G Edward griffin is how I learned of it when I was young
In my opinion as long as people get some currency in exchange for those numbers on their paychecks they won't understand what needs to be done and are too tired to fight after fighting for their company all day.
I was also told if you are moving with $10,000 cash the police or sheriff have to seize it and turn it over to the feds until you can prove it that it belongs to you. When you fight it with lawyers they say it can take up to 3 years to get it back.
Wow, thank you for nearly 1.5 million views! If you liked this episode, please check out the next video in the series here: When Money Is Corrupted - Hidden Secrets Of Money Ep 5 - Mike Maloney
I am no economist, but thought that (until Nixon), the fed res was trading backed by a solid counter value in gold/silver iso a worthles paper cheque IOY. Maybe that was the warning our forefathers did write in the constitution? Anyway I really appreciate your upload and will look them all(likely multiple times) from nr 1! Many thanks and a blessed 2023 to you!

@BlackFlag2012a I don't know much about finances so I might be very wrong, if so I'd love to learn more. I did your little though experiment with the bowl, cup, IOUs and coins. If everyone pays what they owe following the sheets, everything is fine, only the initial 10 coins remain. Did I miss something or in the meantime,100 coins are owed and can theoretically be used at any time? As long as there is no rush to the banks, all those coins are effectively in circulation right? Nowadays, most of spending is done with writing (checks, transfers, debit or credit cards), so the coins will rarely be physically withdrawn, the sheets will just be edited to represent the transfers from one account to another. So in reality, those 100 coins owed are very much usable, you can exchange them for goods and services, ergo, it's money. To me it looks like we did go from a 10 coin deposit to 100 coins in the economy, at least until everything is balanced out. Moreover a lot of debt is unpaid, the government still emits currency by creating debt when they need to, then it is loaned out and not entirely repaid etc. etc. So we effectively end up with a growing amount of money circulating in the economy, the thing that legitimize it's existence are balance sheets that records who owes what to who. Because we know who owes what to who does not mean the currency is not there, we use it every day! It's just assumed to be destroyed at some point, the problem is that it isn't, it just keeps growing. How is that effectively not creating money out of thin air? And another question: if all the currency circulating comes from debt, as presented in video, where are the interest supposed to come from?
👍👍👍👍👍 - I grew up with the admonition/warning of "Neither a Lender nor a Borrower be". My grandparents understood this. Hearing it and understanding it are two different things. Some of my contemporaries did, One of my parents did and try as I might, since the 1960s, were even the Media (newspapers and TV) were explaining it and sounding the alarm bells on it, explaining that it will cause unstoppable Inflation, no one really paid attention. This is the world our kids grew up in and the only world they know. They can't even imagine living in a world were you don't borrow money before you buy something, aka using a credit card. They have no idea how saving up your money and paying for things in cash, whether in hand or in the Bank, actually works. And because they owe so much money they don't see the possibility of how it is better than the way they have always done it. It certainly doesn't make their debt disappear. That has to be paid off first before they can save anything. So they think. Ever hear of the phrase "The blind leading the blind." Yeh. Well, the blind are now deaf as well. BTW, I've never taken the time to create a video showing what I am explaining nor have I even made pictures. Mike, your video and explanation is better than anything I have ever done. I'm going to share this with my family and ask my kids and grandkids, "Now do you now see what I've been trying to tell you?" The people who collect the Dividends from the Treasury Bank also collect the Interest on everything you borrow, no matter where you borrow it from because the FICTITIOUS MONEY that you owe interest on has been created by the Treasury Bank. The only way this system fails is if the USD fails Globally. But I'm sure it won't affect those that collect dividends from the US Treasury. They are the masters of OFF SHORE BANKING and probably own more - on FICTITIOUS PAPER of course - than anyone has ever imagined. If they ever collect on all of the IOUs they hold, insisting they be paid in ASSETS, I think the World will be surprised at what the "Dividend" guys DON'T own, globally. How many Countries can you name that don't have INFLATION? This isn't a US problem this is a Global problem.
Great video, and just to add crypto currency is going to be a million times worse. Just imagine not being able to spend currency without being watched and the government having power to stop freeze your account, remember you cannot spend without leaving a trace so you cannot go 100 miles without anyone knowing, to travel we spend to eat we spend to live we spend. Not having tangible currency will be worse, basicallyeven if you spend 1 cent it will be loggedin the block chain. Money back by gold and silver is the best way or even go back go to tally stick lol but we need something that is fair and allows freedom. I'm not religious but I remember the bible talks of the mark of the beast and we will all be but number and we will wear these number on our hands, well we are not far away Sweden is there already.
Sir Mike Maloney predicted what is happening to SVB bank The man is highly knowledgeable in economics Thanks be to God for you sir and these videos. I’ll always be watching them until this scam sinks in my brain

Interesting but a real solution and serious fix is needed and only Christ will be able to successfully accomplish this. Until then the economy will continue in boom stagnation,helping some.while other must live impoverished. Sin and man rejection of the leadership of God as caused this. In the beginning god sad creation was good very good but Adams disobedience caused what is happen today.God has life abundant life,eternal life to give in a New heaven and a new earth.Sorry I can,t fixed this present broken system,but christ can save you wash you make you in right standing with God to prepare for the resurrection and endless paradise .l in my father's house are many mansions .if it were not so I would have told you.I go to prepare a place place for you.And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself.

I remember first watching this for the first time and I still come back to it. The entire series is brilliantly done and I believe should be a requirement for any finance class in both high school and college.
Right, apparently I already watched this but 2nd time here I come!
It won't be, because the very system depends on the scam.
They did know in the school but "nah"
These series are timeless!
They still apply today! Thanks a lot Mike Maloney! May God bless you!

absolutely a beautiful presentation you have created mike, Isn't it crazy that all you need is a whiteboard, marker, duster and you brains to printout a new order/way of making up real value into the society and just follow the blueprint. That's how this system has gone up. All the money only goes back to the riches and the consequence is people are working hard to circulate it back to the rich people.
@Andrew Muraski Yes. They can pay attention in school and become executives. So now tell me why you didn't pay attention in school? :-)
@James I did think about them and that's why I know that he is talking bullshit. ;-)
He is talking on the macro level and it's difficult to get if you haven't thought about these things.
Indeed I've said this for years.
A white board does not stop anybody from talking bullshit, though. ;-)
Stealing has always been one of man's greatest past times. The only problem is that thieves hate it when others steal from them. It is the honesty of others that the thief depends on for his sustainance.
I’ve been sharing this for years, snd of course I’m here for the banking crisis copy paste episode 4! I notice today you have revised with bank run! Excellent work Mike! Thanks for all you have done for my education. Fellow dyslexic.

This is the most concise and helpful explanation I've ever heard on this topic.
Very well done.
Bro this system is what has lifted billions of people out of poverty. Banks have always worked like this. It gathers money and pays you an interest fee for the privilege. It then loans it out to someone who wishes to buy something with it and that the bank believes it will pay it back with a higher interest to make their profits.
Investors buying bonds is not accurately represented in this video. This is the change that occured since 2008 - Fed buying more and more bonds instead of investors - suppressing interest rates and increasing money supply. Resulting in: even more reckless government spending and asset inflation
@Gregory Dorsey Thank you, most people don't realize the price (product per currency) is actually a ratio. Changes to either side can cause inflation/deflation.
@notfiveo How did he forget that? He included war in his video, that's part of the overspending being promised.
This has been a great reminder of what I learned years ago. Learning about this, is good to know how to protect oneself through investing in something like precious metals, sure. But this system strikes me as something that only works for a small percentage of people who do so. This is to say, it looks inevitable based on this system, that many will have to fail, in order for a few to win. Like the stock market - mathematically, you HAVE to have losers for small percentage to win.
Seems like it forces you to serve yourself, essentially at the expense of other people who remain ignorant of how it works. Am I wrong?
Astounding, very well put together, extremely informative and very helpful. It's interesting that students of economics don't get taught this stuff! Thanks for the exposure.
I had a uni lecture back in 2004 and I questioned why the balance of trade was always a deficit in countries. Someone must make more than they spend I said. Nope that's just the way it is said the lecturer. Then 2008 financial crash happened.
Thank you Mike, you have really done your part in helping our world.
Awesome video Mike and great to watch it again after the bank failures in recent days. Funny how those safe government bonds have now become the toxic assets that cause banks to become insolvent!. They should have put their excess deposits into gold.

Great and brave work putting this together. I am almost sad just seeing this now, almost feel cheated that I didn't get the knowledge earlier. but better late than never. thanks, Mike
Thanks to Mike, two years ago I pulled all cash from the banks I had invested in and bought gold and silver. I have kept sufficient cash (vaulted for safety) in the event of a sudden crash. Having retired, I had no debt. 😀Today, with banks failing and the monetary system starting to crash, I can only thank Mike for keeping me safe. I can never thank you enough, Mike.

The information in this video will give anyone a paradigm shift to the harsh reality of our financial system. 5 years later, I still come back to this video at least once every 6 months, life changing information.
I'm probably going to sound very condescending here, but what I find really heart breaking is how people can spend their entire lives working hard, and paying taxes, and yet never even ask the question: " what is money?" or worse yet get answers such as "it's what you use to buy things" or "it's a piece of paper with the Queens head on." both answers describe what it looks like, and how it's used, it doesn't answer what it is...
If everyone just spent 30 minutes watching this to get some degree of understanding to that very simple question, maybe, just maybe, it would make people stop and think for a second...but no, it's far more important to watch Britain's got Talent, then to think about aspects that directly affect every aspect of modern life.
Now they gonna even force you to pay on currency........ if you want to pay cash.

This video is pure gold! Although I already knew all that, I've never seen such a magnificent explanation in video. Congratulations on this wonderful work! I'm Brazilian, and I volunteer to fully translate it to Portuguese in case it hasn't been done yet.
@REDEN JR PAMAYBAY well, but what about population growth and economy growing? How do you account for that? If you used gold, then investing wouldn't make sense, because value of the gold would increase over time, so spending would be bad. Only reason to invest in new projects is that money loses value. Just look at deflation of currency, where instead of decreasing in value, the value of money increases. Thats really bad when that Happens, you really don't want your country to go through that.
For quality of life, 1-5% inflation is perfect, but more is kinda bad and negative inflation is really really bad. Just look at deflationary economics, you will find that in those, the currency becomes almost unusable. If you think that gold standard and deflationary currency is good, then you are stupid and have no clue about economics.
It would work for some years, but in a decade it would fall apart and the country would be in a really bad shape. No way to deal with any big crisis, investment in anything, especially infrastructure will no longer be viable and the circulation of currency would slow drastically and most companies would fall apart or stop expanding... Gold/silver standard is really really bad. If you are so sure about it, you can try to show me some convincing economic research papers, but it is just not viable.. it sounds nice, but when you look into it in more depth, you will find out that under the surface, its actually a really terrible idea. Show me 1 country in 19th century or later where it worked well for at least 50 years.. there is none. Fiat is a great thing and it improved so many lifes. I understand why people don't trust it, but if you understood economics, then you would know that there just isn't anything better.
For gold standard..
would it work? Yeah
Would it work well? Maybe for a year, but after that it would be a sht show..

Thanks for sharing this knowledge with rest of the world. I live in Italy and went to college in the US but of course nobody taught me this in the Macroeconomics class. I already knew about the multiplier created by fractional reserve lending but you explained it so well is much clearer now. The entire system is basically built on TRUST. If we all go to withdraw all our money from the banks, the system would simply collapse, in the US, Europe or even Russia and China for that matter. But then what? The point is I guess to find a way to change the system avoiding the armageddon. At the point where we stand the system seems impossible to fix. Derivatives are worth maybe 20 times the entire world GDP, thanks to the fictional money, ehm sorry CURRENCY, creation which started after Bretton Woods and that wildly accelerated with deregulation of the 90's. So the QUESTION is how to fix the problem without creating the worst financial crisis of all times?
🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊🎊.......
This is an exceptionally well-produced video. Thank you for putting the work into it.
The production makes it look like a "network marketing" commercial. It sucks.
I am very interested and also invested into insurance/financial companies and Fractional Reserve Lending makes me love this business model even more! I thought they mostly use the deposit money for short/mid term bonds with higher interest rates than giving to the depositor, but damn this way of creating money out of thin air is insane! I wonder if the insurance industry makes similar tricks and what are they called.
Thank you to everyone who is sharing this video. This is how we make a difference.

I am a pensioner reliant upon the government. But since watching your video's I have just short of 100 ounces of silver, a few gramms of bullion gold, and prepping food. I buy my grandkids a silver coin instead of toys for thier birthdays to try to save themselved, they love the coins and look forward to grandads visits. Having said that Mike, I would not have begun, even at this late time of my life, without listening to you. Thankyou
Things are getting serious. We have to get the world to understand money and Mike does it best.
One of the most powerful videos ever. Thank you so much for your tireless efforts Mike. I share this regularly and continue to inform as many people as possible. Your work is a great inspiration for all.
Thank YOU for joining the discussion, first explained in the Zeitgeist films. Keep going you are close to 'getting' it. Buying gold and silver is a hoax as well. Our economic system must change, lol. Loved you on Bewitched btw.
Last year my son bought his first fixer-upper house and had to pay 100,000 over asking because this is what the market was dictating. Now their variable rate mortgage went up 4% while house values are declining. The bank says; don't worry, we will just increase your amortization. As a family, they have a combined income of 170 a year and they are now stretched to make ends meet, gas, groceries, heating, maintenance, daycare have all increased with inflation. This is becoming a common story and it is simply tyrannical that our system has come to this point while the banks and Wall St. are making obscene profits year after year. Money is meant to be used as a means of exchange, not as a means of enslavement.
It is slavery pure and simple.
I've known this at a base level my entire life. It's pretty obvious. Thank you for doing a detailed breakdown of how it's actually done. 😡
Oh my god this video is amazing! One of the best animated explanations I’ve vere researched and I’ve seen a few about this
Thank you for this wealth of information… now we need to somehow educate others regarding this issue.
Nonetheless I knew that “they” were stealing from us “legally” and unfortunately with ‘other’ information encountered… I knew about that ‘hidden secret’ and who is in control of it all.
But doing a counter measure and spearheading their intentions will require a unique approach.
MINDBLOWING! This is by far the best video I've seen about the enslaving monetary system. Now it's up to us people to spread the word all around the world and break free from the enslavement of mankind.
Money is a social disease that hold mankind potential.
Wake Up! The vid is an over-simplification designed to provoke angst.

And, YES, indeed, there it is, at the end, is the advert - for his favoured "GoldSilver" outlet.

It's not exaggeration to say this is one of the most important videos ever created.
Hey there, Mike. This video was incredible and terrifying. Explaining the US monetary system in 30 minutes is quite a feat and you did it so well.
I learnt a term a couple of years ago called the 'financialisation of the economy'. This video perfectly sums it up. The bulk of modern economies are built on financial institutions due to this game of smoke and mirrors at play. Finance shouldn't be as wishy washy (complicated) as it is now. You mentioned 1913 and that was when the world stepped away from the 'gold standard'. So simple and understandable. "How much gold do you have in reserve?" It's fungible, tangible and understandable.
Matt, don't get sucked in. Sorry, but no. In fact the vid is an over-simplification designed to provoke angst. Whenever a vid pretty much starts with "....they don't want you to know this...." then you can be sure it is a conspiracy theory that's disguising a weakly predicated financial almost scam-like advert.

Mike, your contributions to open, free and valuable education is every bit equal to the very best of your contemporaries, in fact, in my summation , FAR BEYOND.
Hi Mike, I live in England but your video will be just as relevant to us as it is to you Americans. I'm no expert in financial things, but I always wondered how the economy went up and down. I had this idea that there were some little men hiding away who had trillions of money; they were the ones who lent Governments money, they never expected the principal to be repaid, they were getting enough interest. Now, your video explains where the money comes from; nowhere. I wondered how things went up and down, when the amount of oil, gas, bread, bricks, timber, were roughly the same. What pushed it up or down? We saw the value of companies plunge or rocket up or down, because some writer wrote something about the loss or gain of a customer. What? Oh, well we have to keep going and pay our taxes. Thanks for your truly amazing video, It explained so much about this crazy world we live in.
This is one of the greatest pieces of work I've ever seen.

This is something I learned from my grandfather on my teens in late 90's and I've ever since traded my currency for real money mainly silver and a bit of gold. and in this time price of gold has risen about 5 times it's worth or should I say currency has devalued to one fifth of it's value. In a span on 25 years.
@Zoran Asking an honest question here, but isn't it already digital money. In the video he say currency is just a collection of numbers, and the majority is crated by banks keeping required deposits and lending out the rest which builds on the digital currency. I'm sure there is something I'm missing where digital currency probably makes this problem worse.
@Steffen Malzacher good point now I have to start hoarding slaves
@rasehorn I didn't invest in buttcoin or any, everything is lie, price of gold is also manipulation
@Zoran you keep thinking that while you "invest" in your buttcoins what possible use you have for medium of trade that can't be turned off by pressing a button remotelly.
I wish I knew this when I was younger. Knowing our government, this will never change. Better to be educated than blind. Thank you.
Thank you Mike ! This was so insightful! All these information will be used wisely
I have watched this a few times but always have the same question!: What in hell can we do that stops this? Try to protect ourselves, fine; but can the system be demolished?
wow this video is mindblowing, like the first video on KZclip iv seen in months that has actually educated me! (not just trump and hillary slating each other!). It's a credit to you that you have somehow managed to make sense of this corrupt system.

trump knows this truth, which is why he is trying to cushion the economy with as many jobs as he can and less regulations to help cushion the inevitable fall. this is also why they are trying to block him every step of the way, flood the borders, spend us into oblivion, create more wars and take out the countries who refuse the central bank... and so on and so forth
esco bar yeah those people are part of the system though aren't they? the system is not part of them. You adapt the system to stop the corruption. Blaming individual people for this mess is futile.
He actually quotes the banks in the video.
This is not some secret. This is the way money is created and no one denies it. Do you trust The American Life? They had an episode on how money is created: www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/423/the-invention-of-money Or are they part of the conspiracy to sell gold?
If you know better then please tell us: how is money created? Which claim is incorrect?
Thank you so much Mike!
As always, I keep saying that I need to put this in my mind... and then forget. This time I am going to keep on it so it's ingrained into my wallet in the head !
This is a fascinating video. Thanks for posting! I feel like I have a better understanding of what's going on after watching this.
Wonderful! Well presented clear , concise and informative above all correct, thanks I have waited all my life for this information yet I didn't know what it was I was waiting for. Thank you again I can't thank you enough.
I have limited resource for investment I'm afraid thanks for taking the time to message me though
This is indeed eye opening. But with everything encroached so much in this system, how do we as a society get free of it and especially with so many powerful few who have vested interest in keeping this system going?

Great topic and video too. I buy stocks for different reasons. Some to hold onto forever. Others for a quick profit or just to hedge against inflation, spread my money across. I'd appreciate tips on best stocks for dividend income amidst a crash/recession, thanks.
thanks for clearing that up. I curiously searched for Eleanor Annette Eckhaus on the internet and thankfully, I came across her website, my goal is to retire in 5 years.
@ayam blaze I've shuffled through portfolio coaches and personally, Eleanor Annette Eckhaus turned out to be best, you must have come across her before on the blog. I haven't met anyone with as much conviction and her fees in comparison to my portfolio outcome is very cheap.
@Annie Zeng this is massive! your handler must be a guru, mind shedding info on this professional aiding you please?
with limited exposure to worldwide trade tensions could shine in the coming months with investors reallocating capital out of growth plays and into safe havens. I'm getting nothing less than $50k per month from my investments and i'm in safe hands of diversification when it comes to risk management.
dividend-paying stocks are attracting renewed buying interest in reaction to trade war escalation, maybe you should discuss with a real inv-coach for guidance, one with at least 10 years experience.
This video makes me want to cry on how evil our system is.
Zoran, look at the history.
Realized it 3 years ago ser.
You just realized that now? 😂
Thanks for such concise explanation of our monetary system. It seems to me that the system is not bad, the problem is when money borrowed is spent towards destruction or enrichment of the few. For example, if you borrow money for advancement of science then your kids and grand-kids may avoid death due to pandemic, avoid cancer alltogether or live healthy longer.
TL;DR where the system needs improving is money allocation and wealth distribution.
Thank You this was very enlightening. I was watching this with my cousin in Japan,
it upset her greatly. I had to stop it as she was preparing to perform in the Ballet the Nutcracker during the Christmas season and was under enough pressure as it was.
I read the book the Monster from Jekel Island a few years back, this is a very good compliment to that book.
Definitely one of the most important videos I've ever seen. Worth watching a few times.
Thank you
Learning from Hidden secrets of money series is better than getting a business degree at a woke college
Colleges have turned into a complete joke.
No, it isn’t
Until now I was thinking logically that deposits help fight inflation since you don't spend the money and it isn't circulating the market that much, but it turns out it's completely the opposite making several times move money out of thin air due to the fractional reserve banking!
So grateful for you and people like you continuing the good fight even if it seems pointless. Knowledge is power, wish everyone world wide had to watch this

This is an extremely enlightening and terrifying video. It provides an easily understood explanation of the workings of today’s financial system.

It is likely that they hold significant influence over the decision-making process for nuclear weapons. I'd love to know how we find a way to transition to a new financial system without causing widespread destruction, as those in power may prioritize protecting their wealth even if it requires causing mass casualties.
@Brian Emmett I’m totally with you man!
@MeLtedLogiK That's the crappy thing. It'd depend on trusting billions of people to have common sense and understand what value truly is. Best I can tell, not even 1% of the population has even questioned the meaning of the word 'value.' I have zero faith in this problem being solved. It's literally the most important thing humanity does (trade) and people can't be bothered to even think about it. Everyone knows it's fucked and still ignore me when I talk about it
Wow! This is the best presentation of this system. Should be taught like this in ALL schools!!!
Thank you
Everytime i hear a bank getting robbed i think, "So how does it feel?"
Unfortunately the frontliners likely to get hurt in an arm robbery are the workers described in the video who slave it out for the corporations. Those hackers who hacked the banking systems a few years ago on the other hand, are legends... *wink

Actually they are stealing an "insured" nothing......

That was a deep video. Loved it. Inflation is theft of time as we have to work more and more.
Love how this is explained 👏🏼
I've learned so much with these videos. Thankyou. I'm glad I've taken some of these steps.
If you're currently in debt and paying interest (car, home, tv, etc.), consider yourself a "slave" to this system.
@Erwin Miranda That's only true if the interest you pay on your debt is less than the inflation. If inflation is 8% , but you pay 20% interest on your credit card debt, then you are losing.
@Stefano Da Giau the fault is people thinking they NEED these things in the first place
The system might be faulty, but I've never seen so many people whining about paying taxes (I would have understood complaining about too high taxes, not paying them as a whole) than in any other place.. Although system is inefficient, to a degree there's some sense in paying them, or civilization would exist.. And thus all your pretty technological gadgets you pay for and can't live without, i.e. anything you watch a youtube video with
I watched it 9 years back and I watch it again. It never ceases to be relevant
Love the video , here in England we tend to follow in Americas for steps , we too have a corrupt and unfair system .I bet you could make a good video on Britains banking system as old as it is
@Goldsilver Hello Mike, Thank you for this wonderful eye-opening, easy to digest, presentation you did a great job!
I do have one question: in the case with FED which is a privatised central bank like the one in few other counties like UK and switzerland it is complete theft that they get to pay dividens to their shareholders (private) out of the profits which are esentially interest on the money created for the system to use and paid by the public taxes. What about the case when the central bank is government owned like the RBA in Australia, ECB, Chinese or Russian central banks and then these banks pay dividends to the government (public) out of the profits that they make, any comments on this case?
How the hell is this channel not being removed yet just blows my mind, he's literally spilling all the beans.
Besides the guys running the world have done a very clever job of creating a system so complicated that an average man with an iq of 100 could barely understand it, that's if someone explains it to him, which is a really really smart move
I have been trying to explain this to anyone who would listen for over a decade. Almost no one is able to understand it well enough to know they should care. This was a very good explanation, clearest I’ve heard in a while. G Edward griffin is how I learned of it when I was young
Wow, thanks for explaining it so clearly. It's truly blood curdling how we live as slaves to those bankers. This financial system must be abolished.
In my opinion as long as people get some currency in exchange for those numbers on their paychecks they won't understand what needs to be done and are too tired to fight after fighting for their company all day.
I was also told if you are moving with $10,000 cash the police or sheriff have to seize it and turn it over to the feds until you can prove it that it belongs to you. When you fight it with lawyers they say it can take up to 3 years to get it back.
Absolutely brilliant,never knew things were so complicated and corrupt.
Congratulations with 10 million views! I've learned a lot from your video's. I hope more people have.
Appreciate your feedback
Massage the number above for more insight.
Bravo! I've known this for years, but this is an excellent and concise presentation of a very complex and challenging subject.
Wow, thank you for nearly 1.5 million views! If you liked this episode, please check out the next video in the series here: When Money Is Corrupted - Hidden Secrets Of Money Ep 5 - Mike Maloney
I am no economist, but thought that (until Nixon), the fed res was trading backed by a solid counter value in gold/silver iso a worthles paper cheque IOY. Maybe that was the warning our forefathers did write in the constitution? Anyway I really appreciate your upload and will look them all(likely multiple times) from nr 1! Many thanks and a blessed 2023 to you!
Thank you Mike for this video, I have shared it everywhere!!!! Crash is already here, it's not how long, IT IS HERE!!!
Sorry, but no. In fact the vid is an over-simplification designed to provoke angst. Whenever a vid pretty much starts with "....they don't want you to know this...." then you can be pretty sure it is a conspiracy theory that's disguising a weakly predicated financial almost scam-like advert. And, YES, indeed, there it is, at the end, is the advert - for his favoured "GoldSilver" outlet. His vid was made 9 years ago, now go and compare the growth in value of Gold with growth of just about any real-economy index.
I can’t believe this was on KZclip 9 years ago! God bless me to find this kind of stuff faster!
I've never heard it explained this clearly before. I get it now. And I'm mad as hell.
this episode is just amaaazing ! thank you so much

The bank makes a profit when the fed pays them interest on the reserves held at the fed? At 21:15
I don’t understand what does this mean?
Someone please explain
@BlackFlag2012a I don't know much about finances so I might be very wrong, if so I'd love to learn more.
I did your little though experiment with the bowl, cup, IOUs and coins. If everyone pays what they owe following the sheets, everything is fine, only the initial 10 coins remain. Did I miss something or in the meantime,100 coins are owed and can theoretically be used at any time?
As long as there is no rush to the banks, all those coins are effectively in circulation right? Nowadays, most of spending is done with writing (checks, transfers, debit or credit cards), so the coins will rarely be physically withdrawn, the sheets will just be edited to represent the transfers from one account to another. So in reality, those 100 coins owed are very much usable, you can exchange them for goods and services, ergo, it's money.
To me it looks like we did go from a 10 coin deposit to 100 coins in the economy, at least until everything is balanced out.
Moreover a lot of debt is unpaid, the government still emits currency by creating debt when they need to, then it is loaned out and not entirely repaid etc. etc. So we effectively end up with a growing amount of money circulating in the economy, the thing that legitimize it's existence are balance sheets that records who owes what to who.
Because we know who owes what to who does not mean the currency is not there, we use it every day! It's just assumed to be destroyed at some point, the problem is that it isn't, it just keeps growing.
How is that effectively not creating money out of thin air?
And another question: if all the currency circulating comes from debt, as presented in video, where are the interest supposed to come from?
👍👍👍👍👍 - I grew up with the admonition/warning of "Neither a Lender nor a Borrower be". My grandparents understood this. Hearing it and understanding it are two different things. Some of my contemporaries did, One of my parents did and try as I might, since the 1960s, were even the Media (newspapers and TV) were explaining it and sounding the alarm bells on it, explaining that it will cause unstoppable Inflation, no one really paid attention. This is the world our kids grew up in and the only world they know. They can't even imagine living in a world were you don't borrow money before you buy something, aka using a credit card. They have no idea how saving up your money and paying for things in cash, whether in hand or in the Bank, actually works. And because they owe so much money they don't see the possibility of how it is better than the way they have always done it. It certainly doesn't make their debt disappear. That has to be paid off first before they can save anything. So they think. Ever hear of the phrase "The blind leading the blind." Yeh. Well, the blind are now deaf as well.
BTW, I've never taken the time to create a video showing what I am explaining nor have I even made pictures. Mike, your video and explanation is better than anything I have ever done. I'm going to share this with my family and ask my kids and grandkids, "Now do you now see what I've been trying to tell you?"
The people who collect the Dividends from the Treasury Bank also collect the Interest on everything you borrow, no matter where you borrow it from because the FICTITIOUS MONEY that you owe interest on has been created by the Treasury Bank.
The only way this system fails is if the USD fails Globally. But I'm sure it won't affect those that collect dividends from the US Treasury. They are the masters of OFF SHORE BANKING and probably own more - on FICTITIOUS PAPER of course - than anyone has ever imagined. If they ever collect on all of the IOUs they hold, insisting they be paid in ASSETS, I think the World will be surprised at what the "Dividend" guys DON'T own, globally. How many Countries can you name that don't have INFLATION? This isn't a US problem this is a Global problem.
Great video, and just to add crypto currency is going to be a million times worse. Just imagine not being able to spend currency without being watched and the government having power to stop freeze your account, remember you cannot spend without leaving a trace so you cannot go 100 miles without anyone knowing, to travel we spend to eat we spend to live we spend. Not having tangible currency will be worse, basicallyeven if you spend 1 cent it will be loggedin the block chain. Money back by gold and silver is the best way or even go back go to tally stick lol but we need something that is fair and allows freedom. I'm not religious but I remember the bible talks of the mark of the beast and we will all be but number and we will wear these number on our hands, well we are not far away Sweden is there already.
I also heard they will be putting expiry dates on digital currency
Incredibly well made. Thank you very much.
Articulated in the superlative ,Sir.A very clear ,concise "lecture " and understable.Thank you .Vetri South Africa 🙏🇿🇦🙏
Sir Mike Maloney predicted what is happening to SVB bank
The man is highly knowledgeable in economics
Thanks be to God for you sir and these videos. I’ll always be watching them until this scam sinks in my brain
It's all about: power, control and greed. This is why financial literacy isn't taught in schools.
Well... Ya? You think this system would stand if everyone knew this? 😂

Schools are pretty much indoctrination camps
***** I've been saying that for a while now....
Very interesting explanation, thank you. This explains how BRICS can become a huge success.
Thank you for this video series. The crooks who run the system are truly evil.
Well explained 👍.
Would just like to know the historical background of such a system.
Don't get sucked in. In fact the vid is an over-simplification designed to provoke angst.

I heard about this in early 2000, it makes total sense. But other than feeling defeated what can we do about, they have so much power?

Interesting but a real solution and serious fix is needed and only Christ will be able to successfully accomplish this. Until then the economy will continue in boom stagnation,helping some.while other must live impoverished. Sin and man rejection of the leadership of God as caused this. In the beginning god sad creation was good very good but Adams disobedience caused what is happen today.God has life abundant life,eternal life to give in a New heaven and a new earth.Sorry I can,t fixed this present broken system,but christ can save you wash you make you in right standing with God to prepare for the resurrection and endless paradise .l in my father's house are many mansions .if it were not so I would have told you.I go to prepare a place place for you.And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself. That where I am there he maybe also.john142-3
GoldSilver (w/ Mike Maloney) thank you for your education! My husband is afraid of these concepts. I would like to participate in the new platform. I have some ideas!
Thank you for uploading. This 'I feel' Should be taught in schools just to highlight the real thieves and liars in our society. I have always thought taxation was immoral. Now I see it proven.
very interesting and well articulated. Where can I find Ep 1 to 3?
Fantastic video. Thank you for sharing your expertise and transparency.
