    Jakob Fugger was the Nathan Rothschild and John D Rockefeller of the Renaissance era. I like the fact that Jacob Fugger started business when he was 12 years old. Jakob Fugger was so rich that you can find him in world history book like you find kings and queens. I like Jacob skull cap. In matriarchal society in Ancient Egypt and Africa the king nephew inherit the throne not the king son, maybe that is why Jakob Fugger nephew Anton inherited his fortune.

    Jakob Fugger did have an accountant Matthäus Schwarz. He also didnt have descendants. And to say his family lived in Swabia before Augsburg is like saying he lived in America before California, Augsburg is in Swabia. Hans Fugger came from Graben.

    I think you have a little better research, you have many mistakes. Augsburg is a Swabian city, Swabia is a linguistic region west of the Lech river. Luther posted 95 theses on the church doors of Wittenberg which was the start of the Protestant reformation. Why would you call him a loan shark? He was a banker, and when people didn't pay he foreclosed, same as banks today.

    Awesome! I'm glad you all did a video about him! Thank you all. And if I'm not mistaken, it's speculated he, in a sense, funded Columbus' voyage to the Americas, since a client of Fugger in the Netherlands owed him 1,400 ducats which was the same amount the client gave to Columbus and the loan to Fugger was labelled as "paid" around the same time.

      He is a very interesting character. I've read a biography of Jakob Fugger, which was written by a Fugger-family historian. I didn't realize how far Fugger's reach stretched: he funded the imperial election of both Maximilian I and Charles V of the Holy Roman Empire, funded their dowries so Habsburg children could marry other nobles throughout Europe; controlled almost all copper throughout Europe; often broke Venice's hold on spice and metal trading, broke up the Hanseatic League, and controlled the silver mines of Germany/Austria (and parts of northern Italy), the mercury mines of Spain, and the Alum trade in western Europe. He also often butted heads with church officials and would often buy and sell offices in the Church, one position even being held by a distance cousin (maybe nephew) of his.

    • @TheAssassinLion
      @TheAssassinLion 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      My sincerest apologies for not responding fast, but you're correct, that's the one. There's also another biography for sale I found that is a bit more in depth, but haven't read it. It even goes into the lives of Jakob's grandfather, has photos of documents and his wealth ledger, and I think details about his businesses.

    Actually Alux,
    Mansa Musa was and still is the wealthiest person to date. He lived from 1280 - 1337
    In comparison to Jakob Fugger who lived from 1459 - 1525. Please correct this and revise your productions to reflect this truth.
    Lest you join the hordes of inaccurate platforms that constantly try to write lies against Historical truths and facts.

      The wealth of Mansa Musa cannot be proven. He remains a legend. Maybe it's true. Or maybe exaggerated. We can't prove it. However, Jakob Fugger's wealth is historically proven.

    He sounded a bit like a reallife Ebenezer Scrooge. On the one hand, it's absolutely impressive what he achieved from humble beginnings; on the other, it sounded like he was a bit of tyrant and a prude. I don't feel inspired hearing the story of this man (as compared with hearing the exploits of Elon Musk, for example). The fact that Fugger did it by being in bed with the government also leaves a sour taste in my mouth.
    Still, a very good history lesson and thanks for making, Alux.
    Also, from what I've read sometime ago (and I can't remember where...), it'd been estimated that Mansa Musa might have been worth around $400B USD as well, so he and Fugger might have been on par (if that information was true).

    Hi. These events should sound familiar I submitted them years ago from 2002- via email , letter,etc the devil's case . The movies based on true events t most of them I remember your best lawyers,invistigfators,etc. Looked into it the result was near billions with lawyers fees out. Etc the final result was still in the millions you guys did a great job . I remember the cia,fbi,etc were all involved for best results and protection. I was living in neveda at the time or out of state normally I was in cali,nv,ny,etc I will tell u the best way I can . I have attached the movies,pics,etc related to this case. Or what I'm writing to you these ppl are scary still are some are in jail, state , federal prison,etc the reasons everything from sex trafficking, trafficking,assault,robbery,etc all over the world . So I have had many jobs agencies,qsr, sales,etc like 20 . Various fields. I got involved with mlm back in 2003- worked with many networkers Tim herr, hayden daughters now bjorn . Frank ching,Andy chau , danny bae, Michael sejun an, George zakucki,etc I started in the irvine office the president's there were Jim rohn, Jerry ballah,Tim herr, pat johnston,danny bae,etc I then got sent to neveda to expand . I did for 10 or more hrs daily 6 days my first year was near $10 million in sales and svp/ president seat and coc. #1 producer under ballah rohn . Also repeated the same in 5links 5linx . Former acn was Andre maronian from 1996 to 2006. All big time ballers in my opinion. Some of them are still in acn some revital u some 5linx and others. I was muschevious . Very pro👌 I remember been with the Asians they were very money motivated bright and others were not I focused on leaders which was Danny Bae. I surpassed his results 100x seriously last time I remember my sales was near $1 billion Danny was nowhere near me. Had the dominating mindset. Was very aggressive I dunno what the hell I had was money possessed. So I remember I used both companies was Midas ,LLC in both companies and top 3 in the entire company worldwide for yrs. Played in the nfl for dolphins bucaneers in the nba warriors,Knicks,Lakers,king's,etc hof with David robinson , arvydis sabonis,etc man I avg like 40 pts per game , 10 assist, 5;rebounds, 99% free throw . Etc was playing ball from 3 pm till 3 am . Bumping classical brain music . I was faster than most. Sported pippen , stockton, jabbar,rodman,sabonis,bird,etc I idolized spud webb , muggsy bogues, allen iverson,etc copy catted their game in mine. Etc invested most worldwide,etc for billionaire results. Showed to Michael bloomberg countries Europe, Russia,usa,china mainly all from $100 million to $3 trillion via bank account, PayPal,gold,jewels,etc I kept relating riches to riches. Demonstrated homelessness to millionaire billionaire . Etc worked for big wigs like Putin,musk,sabonis, branson,etc all very very powerful and scary this is were all the fights cyber attacks etc happened . Funny I mentioned I did cyberware for cia,fbi,etc to fight criminals protect the ultra rich . Examples satallites, technologies which notify the fbi police etc . Lots of celebs believe it or not are in involved in human trafficking, sex rings,drugs,etc I'm not im a devil for god or angel. It's hard but like Elijah Moses . I remember I fought hard for women and childs.etc did many things for CIA like my friend Larry ellison . Fbi ,etc lots of heartache tears etc from gangs, pimps,etc told everyone I know for betterment right now orange county and los angeles county are getting hit hard sex trafficking human trafficking . Have wired many money worldwide,etc the russians fighting evil Somalians . The worst. Hope you all can help and bring justice for these ppl . Against these evil ppl . God is greatest can't wait for his return . The movies I mention earlier dead silence,resident evil all, silent hill, etc . I
