Here's an explainer, quoting Patrick: "Apologies. I accidentally deleted the video when cleaning out some old unlisted videos. When I realized what I had done I reuploaded it."
Patrick, I know it's a small thing, but please put in the description if a video is a reupload and what was changed (if anything). Really helps avoid confusion.
I was pretty sure I had seen it before as well and just figured it's because he mentions it all the time. Though I think you can tell if it's an old video because you can see he still has life in his eyes because he hasn't had to deal with the crypto/NFT collapses yet.
Also: if the investment opportunity is in some form of new innovative technology that promises to alter the status quo in major ways and generate huge profits, make sure you understand how exactly it's supposed to make money. If it sounds needlessly convoluted, it is
@@Firepowered Despite the shortcomings, Occam's Razor proves to be quite reliable! Of course it still requires that you study and read into the matter at hand (Occam's Razor is about research, not assumptions), but the end results generally are, indeed, simplistic.
Patrick, is it too late to plant tulips or should I wait for the dip when winter is coming? Do you think digital pictures of tulips might fare better than dirty, tangible bulbs? Asking for a friend.
@@superresistant0according to poison control eating less than 5 tulip bulbs in a day only causes mild intestinal problems "if that". Eating one, properly cooked, is likely fine and likely did nothing. Even eating 6 at once is only recorded to cause a few days of vomiting and weakness and no lasting effects. So like... Yeah but it's so mildly poisonous that cooking one properly seems to have very few noticeable effects. They apparently have a "milky, slightly onion like taste"
I remember reading that in Victorian times, students at Eton? Sandringham? Not sure, but they dug up the tulip bulbs to fill their bellies because the food was so limited. That, and ate candles.
Several questions If I can (open to anyone): 1.) The neatherlands to this day remains the largest exporter of flowers in the world (their tulip market still remains substantial). 2.) Calvanism and protestantism in general had divergent views of usury mandates which lead to converts, but also towards a bit of an economic renaissance for those cultures and peoples who adopted it, no? In essence, Catholicism to this day venerates poverty and considers the accumulation of wealth as inherently evil. The economic history of europe is influenced by the treatment of Usury laws and norms (the relaxation of which coupled with the mass redistribution of wealth after one of the great plagues eventually lead to the renaissance for instance). Meanwhile, the entire history of Spain consolidating wealth was in a cycle of allowing relaxed usury laws for those who did not practice catholicism until these groups gained an economic foothold, and then they would persecute and expell those people and amass their economic holdings monopolizing on the investments of those peoples. Calvanism itself, as a protestant variation's main draw was its' justification that "work is good" and far from god loving you more when you're impoverished: calvanists believed that being sucessful and rich was proof that god favored you. It was the theological beginnings of "greed is good". I suppose what I'm setting up is: how did the book approach the criticisms of the tulip bubble as propoghanda?

I guess Mackay had reason to believe that the railway bubble wasn't a bubble because something tangiable was built and the whole thing wasn't just about something superfluous as tulips. In that sense he probably was even mislead by his own ideas about Tulipmania and what he thought about he knew about bubbles. Unless he was just misleading people for his own personal gain of course.
Because Diamonds last forever, the diamond "craze" is still here to this day. There is a still a difference in price between synthetic and real diamonds. Since things like diamond, art, etc. exists. People will tend to create the next best thing such as tulips.
In the Barney Miller tv show, one Hassidic diamond dealer character said, " Suppose people stop wanting diamonds? PFFT! Buy land, they're not making more."

Atmospheric railways don't travel in a tube, except for a demonstration line in New York, the Beech Pneumatic Transit system in 1869. They have a tube between the tracks along which a piston runs, connected to the train above through a sealed slot. In the early days of steam engines they weren't a bad idea because the large stationary engines used could be more efficient and more reliable, but locomotive designed soon overtook them. The Dalkey Railway in Ireland ran for ten years and was, I think, the most successful.

I don't think Mackay ever proclaimed himself as an "expert in manias and bubbles". The economic bubbles section of his voluminous book was a very small and relatively uninteresting part of the overall brilliant work "Extraordinary Popular Delusions And The Madness Of Crowds". BTW, Look at the Tulip mania chart and tell me this was irrelevant.
At the time of the writing of the book, many people were amateur historians who published. One can think of Teddy Roosevelt for example who wrote a popular book on the war of 1812. It ended up distorting many serious facts even in the academic crowd.
This reminds me of how many Gold Bugs seem to forget that purchased gold is a loss until sold. They seem to forget that the worth of your gold is dependent on getting paid more than what you paid.

Why does Patrick in the thumbnail look like either A) a serial killer about to kill me. B) a victim trying to convince me, the serial killer, to not kill him?
The railway boom is a good example why expensive infrastructure projects shouldn't be financed by private investors. Mackay predicted right, that railway systems will change the economy of the country completly, but he was totally wrong with the timeline. It's very expensive to built so much and big new infrastructure, and it takes a lot of time, it needs even more time to built all the factorys, which can use the increase in freight volume. But you can't expect an immediate return of your investments in railroads, because you can only charge your custumomers with prizes they can afford, not with prizes you need to make an instant profit. The Channel Tunnel is another example, although it is a big succeess for the economy of the countries on both sides, it wasn't a success for the private share holders which fund the tunnel, they nearly lost all their money.
It's extremely funny of how all of the footage of cities at the start is not of Dutch cities :) but then again ... the whole Tulip mania is mainly bogus, so it's kinda appropriate :)
It would seem that HS2 is the UK’s 21st century version of Railway Mania, only this time the mug punter is the government and the investors aren’t shareholders but the tax payer.
@@PBoyle Thanks for all the hard work. It would help avoid some confusion if you added that to the description though this does give us a good excuse to watch the video again.
Interesting. For some reason this video does not appear in my subscription feed. Are reuploads somehow recognized? While at the same time it gets promoted in my home feed. Seems quite strange...
Good argument for stronger regulation, as long as Capitalism is the underlying System. The definition of the modern use "Middle Class" term came in 1913.
Some bubbles really are seen by quite large numbers of people, the NFT stupidity for example, but history and academia rarely remembers ordinary people speaking plain truths without drama. And even then, it isn't as if those same people will predict all the bubbles but usually the one they know and understand something about the fundamentals of.
Hi Patrick, are you aware of the aroid craze that happened because of the pandemic? Variegated plants are still a craze right now and is definitely still a thing. They’re beautiful and still subject to the whims of what’s popular or not. But Unlike NFTs, if the prices drop one can multiply them and sell for a lower price (provided you didn’t overpay) or just keep them because they’re beautiful. It’s been surreal seeing plants sell for 12k for a whole plant one day, then drop to 900 and then 500, and then it’s variegated version pops up and sells for 10-30k to this day (Philodendron spiritus sancti)
lol I love variegated plants I have a bad ass variegated Chinese maple with those paper lantern type flowers i love it. I forget the real name of the tree
Perhaps the previous civilisation also had the Internet and someone like Patrick was also sharing with then them what could be good to do, but then they also also get wiped out.
Interesting video Patrick, thanks....am I the only one that notices the parallels between Mackay and a certain someone at this very moment? I wont mention their name, other than the clue... they share the same last initial.
13:33 prices can't fall 10 fold. The maximum is 1 fold, ie, 100% because the fall is measured from the top and a 1 fold / 100% fall will bring the price to zero.
Not true, we're talking magnitudes. If something increases tenfold it's 10x (10 -> 100), if something decreases tenfold it's one-tenth (10 -> 1), and he might not mean it in the literal sense. Tenfold usually just describes a dramatic increase or decrease in either direction.

Whoa.
good info Patrick, Thank you!
Hey editor - tell us what changed with the video. At least in the description or something.
Apologies. I accidentally deleted it and when I noticed I reuploaded it.
@@PBoyle Awesome, thanks.
I found the stories of destroying tulip fields as an example of controlling supply in a speculation market, well found. It did happen.
Why does Patrick in the thumbnail look like either
A) a serial killer about to kill me.
B) a victim trying to convince me, the serial killer, to not kill him?
i cant believe i rewatched this thinking something changed
MacKay pronounced Mac Eye, Patrick. It's always worse when An Irishman get's it wrong.
I understand Gold, Silver, precious metals, even the Tech Bubble and Crypto… but flowers that wither???… why….
The railway boom is a good example why expensive infrastructure projects shouldn't be financed by private investors. Mackay predicted right, that railway systems will change the economy of the country completly, but he was totally wrong with the timeline.
It's very expensive to built so much and big new infrastructure, and it takes a lot of time, it needs even more time to built all the factorys, which can use the increase in freight volume. But you can't expect an immediate return of your investments in railroads, because you can only charge your custumomers with prizes they can afford, not with prizes you need to make an instant profit.
The Channel Tunnel is another example, although it is a big succeess for the economy of the countries on both sides, it wasn't a success for the private share holders which fund the tunnel, they nearly lost all their money.
22:22 wow hyperloop is older than I thougt
Re-upload? Come on man, I was happy to think you ve made another bubble video.
Mackay: "Wasawaswasawasaup RAIL CONNECT!!!!"
Its like Deja Vu all over again
It's extremely funny of how all of the footage of cities at the start is not of Dutch cities :)
but then again ... the whole Tulip mania is mainly bogus, so it's kinda appropriate :)
Did he tell this story in a previous video, this is only seven hours old and yet I heard him tell it about a week ago
It would seem that HS2 is the UK’s 21st century version of Railway Mania, only this time the mug punter is the government and the investors aren’t shareholders but the tax payer.
probably re-uploaded for some reason
Apologies. I was cleaning up some old videos and accidentally deleted this one so re uploaded it.
@@PBoyle no worries, now I have an excuse to watch it again
@@PBoyle Thanks for all the hard work. It would help avoid some confusion if you added that to the description though this does give us a good excuse to watch the video again.
@@PBoyle Is there any place youve reuploaded your old lectures? Maybe for Patrons?
The best fictional depiction was "The Way We Live Now" by Anthony Trollope.
Interesting. For some reason this video does not appear in my subscription feed. Are reuploads somehow recognized?
While at the same time it gets promoted in my home feed.
Seems quite strange...
"Flip the Scrip" Love it.
Good argument for stronger regulation, as long as Capitalism is the underlying System. The definition of the modern use "Middle Class" term came in 1913.
uploading a youtube classic!
you should do one on 1990s baseball cards
This is the most Patrick Boyle title I’ve seen yet.
Blinkist is Cole’s Notes !!
Bitcoin comes to mind when we talk about manias.
Thank you!
Interesting video, though I don't think the city @ 1:55 is a Dutch town?
Never let the truth get in the way of a good story!
Very interesting, thanks
Is this a repost? I swear I heard at least this intro before, word for word.
Some bubbles really are seen by quite large numbers of people, the NFT stupidity for example, but history and academia rarely remembers ordinary people speaking plain truths without drama.
And even then, it isn't as if those same people will predict all the bubbles but usually the one they know and understand something about the fundamentals of.
Hi Patrick, are you aware of the aroid craze that happened because of the pandemic? Variegated plants are still a craze right now and is definitely still a thing. They’re beautiful and still subject to the whims of what’s popular or not. But Unlike NFTs, if the prices drop one can multiply them and sell for a lower price (provided you didn’t overpay) or just keep them because they’re beautiful. It’s been surreal seeing plants sell for 12k for a whole plant one day, then drop to 900 and then 500, and then it’s variegated version pops up and sells for 10-30k to this day (Philodendron spiritus sancti)
lol I love variegated plants I have a bad ass variegated Chinese maple with those paper lantern type flowers i love it. I forget the real name of the tree
Perhaps the previous civilisation also had the Internet and someone like Patrick was also sharing with then them what could be good to do, but then they also also get wiped out.
Bro please deal with that colo(u)r correction 😭😭😭
Uploaded 9 hrs ago (15th March), but the offer is over at the end of February? Not that I was interested, but still...
Interesting video Patrick, thanks....am I the only one that notices the parallels between Mackay and a certain someone at this very moment? I wont mention their name, other than the clue... they share the same last initial.
for a second i thought we were getting 3 videos in under 7 days
What about the "collectors craze" that started in the late 70's and popped in the late 90's ?
13:33 prices can't fall 10 fold. The maximum is 1 fold, ie, 100% because the fall is measured from the top and a 1 fold / 100% fall will bring the price to zero.
Not true, we're talking magnitudes. If something increases tenfold it's 10x (10 -> 100), if something decreases tenfold it's one-tenth (10 -> 1), and he might not mean it in the literal sense. Tenfold usually just describes a dramatic increase or decrease in either direction.
What are your recommended top 25 financial, historical and wealth books in your library?
That one big bag of elephant 🐘 shit after the 🌷 craze crash
Mackay,
2 lewis
3 barnad Banach
wait a minute, I've seen this before. It's deja vu all over again!
7:38 or what sailor upon taking a bite of not an onion would mistake it for an onion
He had been at sea a LONG time.
Love you content. You are a genius!
make Tulips great again 🌷
is this a repost ?
Why was this re-uploaded?
