Money & Banking Documentaries
A four-part series of curated documentaries to understand banking, money, and economics.
Understanding money and the economy. Some excellent documentaries to watch that will excel in your understanding of how the world economy works.
This is Part 2 of a Four Part Series.
Last week I published a post on the documentaries to watch on banking, money and payments. You can read that article here.
This Part II is for folks who want to be more educated (informed?) about the world of banking and finance. The economy is not an easy concept to grasp, but at least having an understanding can undoubtedly help navigate both testing and opportune times.
The BBC Documentary Series: Masters of Money, is a must-watch. Starting with Maynard Keynes. You’re in the Keynesian economics era.
The brilliant mind of Friedrich Hayek…
Karl Marx? Yes, you read that right; if you don’t know Marx, I’m afraid you missed out.
Once you’ve seen Masters of Money, it is time to see an excellent five-part series by Niall Ferguson called “The Ascent of Money.”
Episode 1 — Dreams of Avarice:
Episode 2 — Human Bondage:
Episode 3 — Blowing Bubbles:
Episode 4 — Risky Business:
Episode 5 — Safe as Houses:
Episode 6 — Chimerica:
If you are serious about learning, the next series is the BEST thing I have personally watched and learned from. If you ‘really’ want to understand Economics, and delve into it a little more than tipping your toes, then the “Crash Course: Economics” is the best thing.
Fair warning — it is long, with 36 videos in the playlist. But you can walk away learning a LOT.
Everything I know about Economics comes from this video playlist.
