1. Do you think this guy is right on this specific matter?

2. What are your general opinions on his channel in case you know him?

3. Gentile or not?
 
Oh and another thing. Can anyone recomend sources for learning about economy and the business world? I mean more credible ones.

I haven't read these myself, but there was one book out of the selection that was specifically recommended, which is Basic Economics.

Welcome.

I didn't look through the entire selection at the time but I did now and there are actually a few other titles that stand out to me from that list.
The first two being The Richest Man in Babylon and Think and Grow Rich. Both are widely known to be good books. Out of the two, I've only read Richest Man in Babylon, but I've listened to some of the author of Think and Grow Rich(Napoleon Hill)'s speeches when I was without and they were quite good, emphasizing the power of the mind and taking control of it and directing it to your desires. He was quite ahead of his time in that sense.

The other two that I've heard good words about are I Will Teach You to be Rich and Millionaire Fastlane. I'm not recommending them, mind you(and I haven't read them myself so I wouldn't be able to anyway), but they stood out to me and I've heard people saying they were good. I'm really skeptical about modern books on personal finance, especially when they have scammy sounding titles like the two above, but there you go if you want to give them a skim.

Business and economy are pretty big worlds to explore. Is there anything specific you wanted to learn about? What's your goal?

Thanks for the info. I guess i would like to understand the money flow overall and to know how to make a small legal business without being thrown out of the market by corporate competition
 
Wolff is an open Marxist professor. He is interviewed on communist media all the time.

If you are going to sell yourself, you at least need a product that is desirable. And if you're going to make it by hand it may have to be something you can easily make a bit more of, without having to spending loads of hours on it and then having to make it overpriced. (Overpriced things wont exactly sell..) or you can keep things unique.

Just do some thinking about it look around, you'll find a way for sure :)
