    This is what happens when you live on credit. My grandparents were born in the 20's, and told me how it was in those days before the crash, and then after. Both of them were determined never to buy stuff on credit if at all possible. If they didn't have the cash to buy something, they just did without it.

      The problem today is that the 'cash' has been progressively and seriously devalued: you put money away and you find later on that it buys nothing.
      It's being said more and more that the 1929 Crash was deliberately set up by the Fed banks (which were and are private, not Government, banks) to wreck the country's economy for their advantage.

      Hardly matters because the credit debt we have today, aside from housing loans are no collateral loans. If you default on your credit card it hardly matters. The credit they are referring to in this video are in regards to margin credit. That was the trigger that set the fall. (Margin Call)

America is a land of extremes; either things are going ungodly well or it's 1929 or 1973 or 1979 or 2008 all over again. They just like to find ways to fuck over the rest of the world in the process. The American cancer has only grown more powerful in 94 years until it's become a game of "follow the bellend" to the bottom rung of existence. Calling America anything other than a soul sucking leech or a cancer at this point is like calling Putin a friendly and nice hearted guy.

    My mother’s family were dirt poor, even in the 20s. So when the Depression hit, there wasn’t a great change in their lives. My father’s family, another story! They lost three of four houses, sold four of five vehicles, had to let go their cook and two maids and do it themselves. Mom's family moved out of Brooklyn to Long Island. Grandma took in washing, house cleaned, cleaned a doctor's office, cleaned the post office. The children did the laundry, picked up, washed, dried, delivered it, all with hand cranked wringer washers. By summer, they lived in an army tent, in winter, in the summer beach shanty of the people Grandma cleaned for. They had no running water or electric until 1938, by which time two of three children had left school for work. Then they moved to a summer cottage with electric.

      Yaser Elwishahi It depends upon your attitude, whether you’re worried. The kids weren’t worried; it was simply the way they were used to, Mom, especially since it’s far better to be poor in the country where you can have a garden for produce, keep a few hens for eggs or eating if they quit laying. The playground was the woods leading down to a beautiful beach on Long Island Sound. The tent was camping and the beach house was theirs for the cold months. It had a coal/wood stove for heating and cooking. There was always some kind of soup, stew, and a kettle of hot water for tea. Tea might be from the grocery, but it was more often herbal, picked or grown nearby. Even in my fathers family, nobody bemoaned his fate. Grumbling or any type of “emoting” was something one simply did not do. It was counterproductive, and made you a “slacker,” --a lazy, good-for-nothing bum.” The welfare of the group always came before personal fulfillment. If you didn’t like something, you sucked it up and moved on. It was not until after WWII that one heard talk centered on “I, me, mine, myself.” Prior to WWII, if there was any emphasis on the individual, it was to meet one’s obligations towards others. Of course there were feelings, but these were a mere by-product, not the focus of one’s existence. Funny how The Greatest Generation gave rise to the Boomers, the most self-centered generation in history. Somehow, the willingness and value of to sacrifice self

    My father was born in 1919 on a small self sustaining farm and because they always paid cash for everything they survived the depression ok. They had veggies, hogs, cows for milk and cheese as well as meat they had fruit trees and honey combs so, they did well. My mother was born in 1926 and my grandfather worked for the city of Detroit. His job was secure but as the depression went on mom and her sister spent school breaks and summers with her aunt and uncle on their farm coming back to the city for the school year with their father.

      You get it. It wasn’t the fact that people were buying stocks. It was people buying stocks on margin. Once the market crashes, the brokers make margin calls and the investor can’t fulfill it, the investor loses their shares and their original deposit. If a person invest with expendable income, even if the market tanks, they still have their shares and can just wait it out until the market picks back up again.

Many saw the writing on the wall, rushed to withdraw their money from the banks and many of the banks also folded. Our family was poor in 1929 because my father could not find work and my mother would pick dandelions to make soup for us tots. Father finally got a job as ship's engineer taking coal across Lake Eire until a storm sank the ship and he drowned. My mother then took us three brothers ages 6 months, 1 yr and 3 yrs back to England where she came from. That's life...no complaints.

He was taken there by the head of the Bank Of England because they were about to show him how they (along with the FED) were going to get back all the gold that they had to give to America from its World War 1 loans. By suddenly withholding any more loans for stock purchases and calling on all margin loans to be paid immediately, they forced the massive sell off and crash. Some of the banking cartel's associates were told in August '29 to get out of the stock market as quietly as possible. Churchill was just there as an observer and had no say in the matter.

The USA is the country with the biggest debt by far... why do you think it's still not bancrupt? Because they take what they want. They steal and rob everyone with no significant consequences. The USA is the cancer of this planet.

      @sasablink 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can't fix the free market. People are free and use their best judgement to proceed with their financial decisions. Uneducated people make uneducated decisions. US really lacks in quality education and common sense for the majority of people. Other than that you can literally speculate a market crash at any moment. Literally any moment. That means nothing. A market crash is not a bad thing. You can make money from or during or after a crash, depending on your investment style and your financial approach. Also a crash ensures the market reflects the real prices of things. In essence anything that goes up can and should go down. The main issue with great depression is the combination of politicians being ignorant and looking after themselves (always the case), people making decisions that had little to no understanding (honestly their fault). The only thing that could improve this would be to introduce financial courses in school and to have certain barriers on who can invest and how much, which would prevent many parties from making money so i don't think it would ever happen. I'm not even sure it should.

    • @jameseverett4976
      @jameseverett4976 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Since then the gov has implemented various socialist programs, apparently including a financial backing system that can postpone a crash for much longer, but with a greater power grab once they have to do it. Back then was a simple plundering of the people's money, but they have something much bigger in store next time around - a total switch to a more controllable financial system, and a new world power center, including caps on population and limitations on their way of life.
