  • I love how this video explores such interesting concepts but it's kinda crazy how nobody's talking about the book called Forbidden Crypto Hacks
  • @eflarsen
    pharmabro saying "jail's not that bad" is such a "i committed white collar crime" thing to say
  • @alexh2065
    As an accountant I love it when John says stuff like "I'm no accountant, I mean I should be" gets me every time

    The most astonishing thing to me was trying to sell an asset that is always worth a dollar, because there is another asset always worth a dollar with a flawless record of always being worth a dollar. Its called the dollar.
  • “I don’t debate the poor on Twitter” is maybe the most Twitter thing I’ve ever heard in my life.
  • "We did an episode on this 5 years ago, when I was 10 years younger." damn, I feel the same way.

    Reminds me of Peter Griffin going to the shady loan shark. "You see, we are different from other banks, in that other banks are banks"
  • I love that John can talk shit on HBO but they'll never drop him since he gets so many viewers
  • You are a special treat to the world. As a cancer patient, I save your videos for my worst chemo days, cuz they raise my spirits and give me roaring giggles and giggles are very healing. Thank you.
  • "He dressed like everyday was laundry day and brushed his hair with a balloon". I never laughed so much in my life.

    I'm sure it's been said 800 times in the comments, but 'Line Goes Up – The Problem With NFTs' by Dan Olson aka Folding Ideas is a must-watch with regards to how Crypto and NFTs are basically free real estate for scams and criminality to thrive.

    My weird association with the word "fungible" is that I once used it in a uni essay on the rationale for mass political terror in the early Soviet Union. The sentence was something along the lines of, "From Yezhov to Abakumov to Beria, the personnel changed, but state terror remained - individuals were fungible, but the system was immutable and essential to the Soviet state." My tutor circled the word fungible and put a question mark next to it. I sometimes wonder whether he ever thinks about that in the era of NFTs.

    “We’re all gonna make it” sung by someone who has already made it really turns my stomach. Enough is never enough for some people.
  • All of last week tonight episodes have aged so well, that alone speaks for the show’s credibility and quality of research.
  • I always love the “hey girl great top, quick question are we like doing crimes?” Lmao every time 😂
  • @mcnamaraky
    Jim Cramer is actually one of the greatest investment advisors ever. Whatever he suggests, I simply do the exact opposite, so his advice has been invaluable to informing me of what not to do.
  • I have definitely worked in an office where we would all sometimes ask each other “are we committing crimes?” And I can confirm it was a fever dream

    Coffeezilla has a good series of videos on these companies documenting what was going on before, during , and after they collapsed.
