Andrew Carnegie Documentary: How does a boy born into poverty become the richest man in the world? Andrew Carnegie is the personification of the American Dream; an extraordinary rise from the very bottom to the absolute financial top. However, I must warn you: there are two different sides to Andrew Carnegie. On the one hand, Andrew Carnegie was a hypocrite - he preached about workers rights publicly, and yet privately he slashed his workers wages, significantly increased their working hours, and essentially exploited his staff as slave labour in barbaric dangerous conditions to build his fortune. Carnegie destroyed unions, and his actions resulted in countless unnecessary brutal deaths - for example the tragedy of Homestead.
And yet, on the other hand, Andrew Carnegie may be the greatest ever philanthropist - after becoming the richest man in the world, he then spent the rest of his life giving almost all of that money away via philanthropy. He funded universities, schools and nearly 3000 free public libraries around the world to help others improve their own position in life. Many believe he inspired future billionaires to give more of their money away and embrace corporate philanthropy. Andrew Carnegie is also responsible for incredible innovation that helped build America and change the way we do business - we’ll look at his rise through the corporate ranks and how he built his fortune in the steel business. Andrew Carnegie’s story is both an inspiring rags to riches tale, and a controversial business documentary. And the history of Andrew Carnegie involves several other business titans - for example Carnegie was bitter rivals with John D Rockefeller, and also ended up making the biggest business deal in history with JP Morgan, which is how Carnegie became the richest man alive. But before all that wealth and drama, we need to travel back to Scotland in 1835, where Andrew Carnegie was born into abject poverty…

Watching from bahamas
There are other places on earth that is not the United States "Dudes" you wish he was the richest man on earth.
All I ask is to find the best future movie producer's samples on youtube.
Have a look into Warren Delano (the 'D' of FDR), Forbes etc, who made lotsa money selling opium in China. Could be interesting!
I hate you magnatesmedia for not doing this any sooner because this was my test 5 months ago 😩
If you had enough money to start your own company,
Would you treat your employees fairly ❓ because I've never come across a billionaire who runs a billionaire dollar company and treats his employees fairly.
Again I ask you... If you had enough money to start your own company, would you treat your employees fairly ❓

Then what in the budget happened at this part? --> 35:50
This is a fine example of the complaint I have about self improvement and business improvement theories. Andrew Carnegie is often used as an example of how good daily habits, self belief, perseverance, networking and other positive behaviours create success, when in reality his success was created on the basis of exploitation, corruption, insider trading, with disregard for the destruction of the environment and human life. Basically every unethical practice we know is the basis of huge success in business- but this reality is denied.
agreed- most of the biggest philanthropists are the first ones to whinge about taxes and wages. Philanthropy is about ego- I always think, just shut the fuck up and pay ya taxes.
The joke is that those daily habits were used in conjunction with the despised behaviours and that is what made him successful.
Well, you don't make an omelette without breaking some eggs. In this case, a lot of them.
Roots must reach hell if you want a tree that reaches the heavens right?
Andrew Carnegie was still a great man, one of the greatest who ever lived.
@@eusebio_9 EXACTLY !!!
can we just appreciate how well edited and professional these videos are
Yes
Yes
Nothing less than incredible
so true, the images of people, and the way it all works well together, it kind of makes it hard to listen to the story (in a good way) as i the production is so good, i have to keep rewinding :)
something more than professional
My boyfriend turned this channel on for the first time about four or five hours ago and I have been thoroughly enthralled every second. I have always had questions about the whole story behind events, people, ideas etc. and you present the information so well. I can only imagine the time and effort and perseverance it takes to make these videos, tell these stories. I love it and I look forward to viewing and listening to so much more. You and your support staff are doing really great work. Thank you so much. I subscribed right away.
This channel is slowly becoming one of my favorites.
If he looses the dramatic background music its perfect.
@@peterdevreter tbh I like it
Its part of what sets the video apart 😅
@@peterdevreteridk I think it’s pretty cool. But to each their own.
Carnegie definitely left a very impactful legacy, especially in the Pittsburgh area. The nuance of his impact is very important to touch on like you did in this video. Even my family has been largely affected by both his philanthropy and wrongdoing. My grandfather's family were immigrants that came to Pittsburgh and his brother died at around thirty in a fatal accident at one of his mills. That being said, my grandfather still routinely visits the Carnegie Public Library and the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. The irony being that the library was supposedly installed for the workers of the dangerous mills. On top of this, my parents both graduated and met at Carnegie Mellon University. So, in a way the same person who led to my great uncle's death, led to my birth. Great video keep it up!
Your comment somehow does partly answer one of the greatest, if not the greatest moral issues concerning human society.
Does the goal justify the means?
In your case one could easily assume that the answer is yes.
But then again I have my doubts.
If the brother of your grandfather had not died the way he did, his progeny today may have equally shared the fruits of the labour of their grandfather, just like you.
But then again, Andrew would not have the great transformative effect on millions of American citizens.
Guess such things will always require sacrifices, martyrs, injustice and appalling life for certain segments of our fellow human beings.
The same principles apply today to those who work for Jeff Bezos, as does the increasing use of robots and AI. Competition and profit.
However as people like Steven Pinker will assure you we are going forward. I agree in this case. The conditions at the workplace are not remotely akin to those that your grandparents experienced. But they still can keep some at the bottom of the social hierarchy, they do not guarantee the education of their children, especially when the public education is being neglected. No wonder they are increasingly producing a generation of believers in conspiracies, people succumbing to warbled guttrals of demagogues and snake oil pundits, people who are completely abdoning the existence of objective truth or the legacy of the founding fathers.
Yes I can see progress in your case here.
But in general a regression for the American society. Hope I am mistaken.
Truly fascinating mate! Crazy how these things happen!
@@milosbhat6920great comment- how society (in the US and elsewhere) develops during my lifetime is a point of real fascination for me
Truly insane how some of these things happen huh? So many things had to go right for me and you to both be here commenting on YT right now.
The end doesn't justify the means, when the means are literally the END of someone else!
A work related accident could be just that, an accident due to neglect. Next time we should improve work conditions. If we ignore it intentionally, the next work accident becomes intentional.
We shouldn't justify evil ever. No matter how big or small!
To answer your question "does the end justify the means", no it shouldn't.
Would I steal from a supermarket to feed my kids? It's easy, but it hurts the owners and the economy.
I rather work hard to feed my family! That way I support my family AND the economy.
I like how balanced you presented the story of Andrew Carnegie, showing the good, the bad and the ugly, then letting the audience decide for themselves how we should view his life and legacy.
Murder is a bit hard to forgive
@@skeletonbuyingpealts7134 Not for capitalist, that is just something you have to blame others for like the communists. Capitalism has only made people better off. lol Wake up and look around
If only everybody wasn't so biased when they made videos. I'm so sick of the political leaning in everything today.
@@baylorsailor Life is inherently political
He was horrible. He grew up poor and then kept his boot on the neck of the poor. He could have just made less money and paid and treated his workers well. He didn't. End of story
Lots of love from Kenya. I joined this channel when it had 1254 members. I subscribed and because John's way of telling stories is exemplary. Finally John is clocking a million subs in less than a week/month. Congratulations lad!

Always a good day when magnetsmedia uploads.
Ever since I saw your channel I've been binging every single video lol, for sure my favorite channel
Please dont pull the Jake Trans move, we love this channel.
I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean by this, could you explain please?
@@fuucaran jake tran is a youtuber who made great documentaries but he sold out and decreased his quality and many other things
I hope that doesn't happen
I know this guy personally. He will NEVER do that. Don't worry.
@@fuucaran used to make great videos like magnatesmedia, but know he just takes every sponsorship he wants and his videos aren’t very accurate. He has promoted 20+ scams already.
Our school never taught us about the controversies and shady actions Carnegie made, we only learnt about the good he had done and how it revolutionised the world. Looking at the video I think Carnegie did more good than harm but schools should show us the whole picture and let us make our decision and opinion.
I mean you know who funded the US school system right? The Rockefeller's lol. The same people who built that system directly before from the people having positive feelings towards figures such as Andrew Carnegie. These guys built these systems, and thus had the ability to control how these systems view them. it's hard to say if they did more good or bad, I reckon I don't know enough to make that judgement. But they definitely used their positions to affect how we judge them, and for that I error on the skeptical side of how I view their character. How much of our positive view is because they want us to see them that way? An interesting line of thinking at the very least
I agree and commented elsewhere that he (and others) are held up as role models we can learn from but none of the negative aspects which played a BIG role in his (and others) success are acknowledged
Education systems are propaganda machines molding you
Based on the information provided in this video I would say the harm he did was extremely minuscule compared to thee good he did, especially for the economy.
The middle school I went to was named after Carnegie. Our class time spent on the man was 80% Pinkertons, 10% steel innovation, and 10% schools/libraries. We never touched on his time in the railroads. We never talked about his heritage beyond his parents being from Scotland.
I am new here, but if this were the kind of videos that were shown to us in school. I would’ve made straight A’s and actually paid attention. Rather than fall asleep, and skip class. Your work is phenomenal, this was more informative, educational and entertaining in the history channel. BRAVO
Just bumped into this video. Great content and video quality 👌🏾. Thank you for sharing.
George Westinghouse and John C. Bogle are the only two American businessman I can think of who climb to the top while doing more ethical than unethical stuff. Everybody else doing more unethical than ethical stuff but these two prove you can be rich while remaining true to their value.
And the Hershey's guy i think
I think you should include Lysander Spooner (private mail system) and the leaders of the Northwest Pacific Railroad as well.
It is possible to get rich in business while being honest and ethical, but Carnegie and Rockefeller didn't do it.
Amazing information put together. Great work! I really appreciate your work!
Your editing just gets better and better. Another amazing video man. I could watch these all day!
It's quite insane that this kind of high quality docs are avaliable for FREE
we are really fortunate to have unrestricted access to this type of content and much more.
thanks for what you are doing and keep doing great work!
It's not available for free. Just because you haven't paid in cash, it's free?
@@DetectiveBernard you are paying your time
He is earning with your time
If you don't get enough returns after giving your 53 minutes and 31 seconds you wasted your time but after paying your time and watching this video I think it gave you significant returns
@@DetectiveBernard you got it wrong buddy accept it and embrace it
The guy said it's not necessary we are not paying money doesn't mean we are paying nothing
And I am not saying he is not earning from your veiws ok let me clear it
👉What are you paying ?
Is it money , no !
Is it relationship ,no !
Is it any materialistic thing , no !
Let me get it more clear
Every thing we do- watch videos , create videos,spend time with family
Costs something and that something is
👉 Time
👉 Attention
Let's assume you are watching this video and not paying attention you lost your time and time is money so the time you could have done something productive or good you wasted it
Or,
You are paying attention but don't have enough time you also lost your money cause attention is money
You watched this video you invested your time you learnt buisness lessons, life lessons
Congratulations you got returns good returns
It's true believe it of not nothing is free nothing
You want girlfriend and you want to be in relationship with her forever
You are not spending money
What will you spend ?
Time and attention
Even the relationship is not free
Even the love is not free
It costs time , attention and faith
It's quite simple concept actually literally every billionare thinks like that every single of them buddy ❤️

I love these, the time spent on the editing is crazy.
I just discovered your channel a few days ago and I’m hooked. Really educative and balanced
While watching this I just realized the real reason he gave away so much money to create libraries all over the United States. I was watching this and started to think it was a little bit of an extreme attack on him. And then I thought about why I thought that. And that was because I had read a biography of him when I was younger. That had been a book that was in a LIBRARY. He donated so many libraries to the United States so that he could dry up any possible market for a book that might be critical of him. Libraries would not want to bite the hand that created them. And libraries are main customers for books. Carnegie had created a safe way to make sure that his narrative of his life would be the one that would prevail. Thank god for the internet.
You mean GOD
True, just realize that government was a great hand in his success, just as it is with all monopolists, and likewise paints itself as a benevolent force. See 35:20 to remind yourself of the true force behind putting down the Homestead strike. Roosevelt originally wanted to say military-industrial-legislative complex--did you know that? They successfully convinced him to leave that out so they could burnish their image.
I agree with you. At least you can see through someone's BS. I also think he may have done it for PR purposes. In this day and age we call that virtue signaling. Major corporations do it all of the time. How much money did Steve Jobs donated to charities throughout his life? Meanwhile, in China... Btw, I heard that Foxconn is a workers utopia. 😂
You're the man, thank you for well produced, detailed and informative content
Cant wait for you to start uploading again man!
Your videos are just absolutely outstanding, been binging the past week and phenomenal work keep it up! 🙏
You are my favorite channel. Keep these videos coming. I am addicted to them!
the amount of effort that is put to this videos,it's amazing .thank you for giving this free to us! it's literally like a movies.
And as persuasive, in a Marxist sort of way. Go back and look at 5:31. Yup, just more nudging like this. It's throughout, in imagery and substance. Too bad; so much good could be done with something like this, like revealing how much government has to do with backing up monopolies and "robber barons," just like today. See 35:20.
Next video: The rise & fall of Alex Edson😂
The video edit is absolutely mind-blowing, congratulations 🎊 for everything
Awesome and interesting Video. Superb work. Thanks for taking your time to make them.

He's back! Didn't you read his community section? He is finalizing the issues with TH-cam and will provide an update.
He was the mentor of Napoleon Hill, he wrote the famous book “Think and Grow Rich”. Many of the principals in the book were inspired by Andrew.
Just discovered your channel, I love history, combined with almost any subject. Great job bringing in such high quality true life events.. There is so much to be learned.

Your videos are just so so good. Best business content on TH-cam without a doubt
In the last few years, "content" on the internet has been becoming cheaply made trash. TH-cam used to be a place to find amazing and interesting videos. This is the second video of yours that I have watched and I'm subscribing. This is the content that I want to see on the internet. Captivating, interesting, well-written and well-edited videos. The thing about music that you mentioned is so true. Everything about this video is perfect; from the cinematic visuals and music/sound effects to the words you use and the tone/emotion in your voice (compared to the monotone voice that many creators use nowadays). You tell a story better than any TH-camr I've ever seen. Massive respect to you, I'll be watching more soon.
TH-cam always has trash and informative content. You just has to search.
Once again, excellent video! Looking forward to the next one.
The videos created by Magnates Media is gold, thank you so much for doing this.. this is mesmerizing and so addictive and yet soo educational. Thank You so much man ❤️
Liked subscribed and notified. Well deserved subscription . Fantastic content my friend.
Just to tell you how extremely good you are at this, I've watched this entire documentary twice just to get the feeling I had the first time and both times were awesome. In a nutshell thank you magnet for this top top notch content. This is brilliant. This is magnum opus of content delivery and im just here to thank you. Once again thank you
Yes, great delivery, but a lot of nudging. Not really a balanced view or anything other than the approved message on Carnegie. For example, he glosses over that the government militia provided the real muscle behind ending the Homestead strike. It's always that way. Blame business for everything. government for nothing--straight out of the strategy of Herbert Marcuse.
You're awesome!
Just to let you know though, then thumbnail to the next video doesn't appear when you say. Most times I have to manually find it.
Appreciate you guys for sharing this imperative content and the work ethics and philanthropy powerful endeavors
You got your channel back! Congratulations I’m sorry you had to deal with all that crap
If he wanted to make amends for his misgoings shouldn't he had giving the families of his workers some of his fortunes?
Yeah, give back to those who made your business the success that it was.
Exactly, he only cared about himself and his legacy.
It's the same with companies today. Bill Gates made a huge fortune from his early American workers, then created a foundation to give away most all of that money to foreigners overseas. He did NOTHING for the American veterans who made his life and fortune possible, either.
You've really been making some quality vids. Less than a minute in and I'm intrigued and end up watching right until the very end-always. Kudos to you MM☺
Hey there 👋🏾
The quality of your video production is phenomenal 😀
I mean really….the editing, graphics, transitions - great dramatic affect and really impressive
It makes the story more compelling and your voice over only adds to the drama, well done 👍🏾
This was an insightful story - I guess nobody is hundred percent bad or hundred percent good…the way Carnegie treated his workforce was disgraceful though and seems he tried to compensate for that in his philanthropic good deeds
Anyhow, thanks for sharing the Epidemic Sound link with us, I’ll definitely check it out 👌🏾
I wonder which editing software and graphics you use as well?

Been watching all your videos, slowly plotting my way to get rich now. Thx brotha man
Great Content once again! We strive to be like you guys one day
Excellently covered. What a brilliantly structed script, high quality animation and how you presented the life of Andrew Carnegie. Presentating the story in a balanced way and leaving the audience to form their own opinion. These videos are helping a lot in understanding their life journey. Someone one who doesn't want to read books can still gain knowledge by these Netflix like documenteries. Really appreciated.
He didn't present a balanced view. This video was full of "nudging" toward thinking business is bad and by implication government good. Did you notice that the real muscle behind putting down the Homestead strike was by government militia? Go to 35:20 if you missed it. This is the same stuff I heard all the way back in high school; the author apparently never grew intellectually. It's informative, but it's not "balanced." You really need to step back a little. My high school teacher said almost all the exact same things as this fellow; it's well presented, but the substance is tendentious. Also, try watching some of it at 2x without sound. The Marxist imagery and propagandist nature of the video will be apparent, I think.
Great work on the documentary!!!
This is like a real TV program as the same as all of your over videos, good job.
Crazy, I remember reading in both the "Law of Success" and "Think and Grow Rich" how much Napoleon Hill idolized and showed reverence towards Carnegie. Constantly used as an example in many teachings. I wonder if he knew the true nature and character of Andrew Carnegie, for his writings and some of the lessons are contrary to who Carnegie truly was.
Hill was a conman. It is unlikely Carnegie tasked him or provided him anything for his work. Like all the modern conmen he said enough to keep you on the hook and nothing that anyone hadn't seen or thought of before. What useually stopped people growing rich is a deficiency in ability, contacts to raise finance or willingness to screw people over. One or more of these things.
@@gm2407 That's the sentiment of a lot of individuals. I'm definitely aware of the fact. Regardless, it doesn't take away from the message and lessons/teachings. He has recycled previous works of others. That is a fact. I'm specifically talking about the picture painted by him in regards to Carnegie and his character.
@@jpmoney91 Characterisation and true character can be very far from each other. One is spin and the other is based on actions taken. At best we have a detailed picture which is incomplete. At worst we have charactisations painting on the historical evidence. Much like every historical figure really. If you want to be the rich magnate the he would be a hero and role model to mantel. If you fall short in that regard and do not want to be exploited then he is an opressor of people. Seems like a good thing to remember, that everyone is in competition, do not undersell your worth, or you never catch up. Also I can't imagine Hill would want to impart a negative characterisation on Carnegie when he is trying to sell a dream to people to buy his book. But that might just be an assumption I have of the desperate audience of the time period. I have seen others sell their systems as never mind the morals and ethics, if it is legal, or you can get the law changed that is all that matters, do what you need to. But probably seen to much Dan Pena. He has a much catchier way of putting it.
@@gm2407 I'm very aware of the hypocrisies of these so called gurus. That was the whole underlying point of my initial comment. Your average person wouldn't know the differing viewpoints on Carnegie though. You just made a deeper assessment of the fact. Appreciate you going above and beyond on it though.
@@jpmoney91 Thanks. Good convo hopefully it highlights things for anyone not in the know when reading the comments.
I only subscribed for moral support after your channel was highlighted by Upper Eschelon. I'm grateful for it, the quality is stupendous.
I enjoyed every second of this documentary, thankyou so much!
This is great! your videos always are always entertaining and full with history!
Dude who edits these videos lol. They are so well made.
I also wonder
I just paused the video to type this comment real quick.
I have been watching you for a couple months now and this is the exact content I had been searching for on youtube. It was so hard to find this type of content.
Thank you for doing this and never stop. Your videos inspire alot of people.
Hey,John! Love your documentary
Great!! Video thanks!!
I am from Dunfermline which is where Andrew Carnegie was born he gifted the town a park library and swimming baths to name just a few things ❤
Glad the video is back
Thank you for the content and the video. I enjoyed watching it. And I like learning about the men that built and shaped this country over a century and a half ago.
But I have to stop to wonder if these men may have made different choices and different decisions and acted in different ways. How different the country may look and be today.
For one they wouldn’t be them and their stories would be different. But so much at the time was surrounded in greed, revenge and putting competition and rivals out of business. And the underhanded things to achieve that end. It just seems to me to be magnified like 10 fold today.
And the same names control a lot of the business that goes on in the world today. Using the tactics to stay on top of the heap and in control of things.
I think you may have been right in his later years. I think he was trying to atone for some demons that were haunting him.
Which it appeared he could have many.
I understand the drive, the ambition, the vision and the ability. I find it hard to understand the treatment of those that worked for him. Because he was unable to carry out his own abuse of those that worked for him. To hire someone that could carry things out and see them through.
In business it’s understandable to a point. But it’s an example of. Making a different choice in how to deal with or direction to take.
What comes to mind is the Hershey empire. He went in a different direction. He took care of his people at the time when they needed it and affected his employees the most. There was a different loyalty between both parties. Sometimes it’s not always about the check at the end of the week. People are willing to work for less an hour. If being compensated in other ways.
Like housing, education, a safe place to raise a family.
I find that true from personal experience. Working in a factory. The managers used money as an incentive. That money turned out to be a decisive and demotivator.
Then I also had a job in a group home setting. Where I lived on the property in my own place and had my meals taken care of. The people I worked with could never figure out why I never pushed or got upset about not getting a raise. They couldn’t see or seem to figure it out. When adding up the extras living on the property rent and utility free. Made up for anything else I could have gotten. If I would have had to pay rent and utilities. I was farther ahead working for less than an hour. And wasn’t driven by the money.
I think at the end of his life. I don’t think he was name and recognition seeking. His name was already connected to bridges and builds.
I think he truly wanted to give back. The best way he knew how. And trying to settle with his demons.
In the end only God can judge our hearts and deeds. It’s his call where we end up.

While Carnegie had some questionable business practices to put it lightly; and while he should’ve cared more about worker safety seeing how his father himself was a victim of poor work safety; his ability to make the best product at the cheapest cost was outstanding and helped shape the country in the late 19th century
