“Amazon became the first public company in history to reach over one trillion GDP”

*Dutch East Indies Company:* Am I a joke to you?

[eliasstenman]

We gotta think of the brand value of Economics Explained.

[HomersIlliad]

Companies reaching over $1 trillion in value should be referred to as Tera-Corporations.

EE: "Sure, they are not loading lines of code onto ships..."

[neeneko]

Gotta love how after all these years we have essentially come full circle. Pick up a leader from the age of command economies and they would probably be pretty comfortable in a modern megacorp. They are essentially a new kind of state that has outsourced the burden of taking care of its own people and infrastructure to traditional states.

"The company has real estate in your mind"
That is an interesting concept

“Each video costs about 1000 dollars”
Everyone: Wot.

[PoodiePieNasro]

the fact that some companies today are worth 1 trillion dollars is crazy, meanwhile some "developing countries" have an economy of 151 billion (or even less), completely mind blowing

The Holy Global Empire was neither Holy, Global or an Empire

I’m a programmer and I’m about 3 years out of university. I just got offered a 6 month contract for $128k. There’s a LOT of money in tech if you’re skilled.

11:55 - You're not selling us videos for money.
We are giving you attention, and *then* you sell that attention to advertisers.

[GiorgosKoukoubagia]

People ~5 centuries later: <<The "Holy Global Empire" was neither Holy, nor Global, and barely an Empire!>>

Edit: obligatory WOW thanks for the likes, first time 500+! I'll reward myself by crowning me as the next Roman Emperor or something~ I mean, didn't stop others from doing so :P

I once saw a company that was valued less than the cash they had on hand.

[ricardonm]

I'm also an economist and I admire ur work. With that being said, the part of this video related to valuing a company is highly innacurate. It's not about intrinsic value, but revenue, ebitda, efficiency and good old perspective. Kodak is an example of how a company's name doesnt mean anything, because a name is based on what u did. Company value is about what u do today, what u plan to do in the future and how well prepared u are to make it become a reality

[marcelo]

Nobody:


*_Inflation:_* *_Hello there my friend_*

[alphamikeomega]

Dutch viewers at the end:

_"Fingers on <G>, everyone!"_

[scifience]

also please give us a video on the economy of Yugoslavia

[master_shifu]

I want a company like that one day! Ill bye my own space station and use it as my primary home
