About an hour ago, I finished my business and finance exam. In this course, the main takeaway was how much to value a firm, profitability of taking on a project, and learning about prices of the firm on the stock market (through EPS, book value, etc.). While taking the exam, a thought occurred to me.
Why exactly am I studying this?
To be exact, why exactly am I studying how to value a firm, and how the valuation of a firm affects it's stock market price and dividends, when the top 0.1% can simply manipulate the value of a firm's stock?
What would be the point of saying that a medical firm on the verge of releasing some cure for cancer and showing great financial accounts is doing extremely well, just for HFs to come and short the shit out of its stock into bankruptcy?
What would be the point of working for a company that is small but having great results but on the other hand, a HF putting artificial buying pressure on a much bigger company with not so great results?
For the rest of my life, I can guarantee the answer to every question I have will be somewhere along the lines of power and greed.
What I have learned in my bachelors degree so far is that without manipulation, things that are happening right now, should be happening differently. And it is sad to see that the majority of my classmates are unaware of this. Studying this degree only seems to actually prove useful in a non-existent society where the ultra wealthy do not take advantage of the systems made for society. This is why we need a market reset. To bring everyone as close to the same level as possible. And to finally make the world aware of how much fuckery has been going on since the start of time.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

For those that don't know me I run Australia's largest crypto channel. I've been advocated for crypto adoption in Australia since 2012. Today I woke up on Xmas to a strike warning from Youtube for harmful or dangerous content. Checked my email, nothing. A few hours later after Xmas lunch, another strike. I hadn't even done anything on Youtube since the first strike. Still no email. I cover a lot of topics related to finance, economics, housing market, stocks as well as crypto related content. We don't do paid ICO or token promotion. I have done tutorials on leverage trading platforms. I'm really not sure what to do. If the trend continues most crypto youtubers will be affected. I get there's plenty of bad guys out there, but there's plenty of good ones who have been big advocates for Bitcoin & crypto for years. Wish us luck...https://twitter.com/AlexSaundersAU/status/1210100907909750784

So after 2+ years of doing DD and contributing to others' DD, I've learned a few things. The three that are the most staggering are
-
You don't own your shares - everything in your brokers account is an IOU.
-
Your buying pressure is likely being suppressed due to dark pools
-
Hedge funds can and will short stocks down with their total capital to take money from retail investors and companies that are viable and can do good if left alone.
I had dinner with an old business prof a little while back. Now, you have to understand this person has always been a trusted source for business and finance information. Our conversation led us down a market structure conversation, and the 3 points above about blew his top as he doesn't short or play options anymore.
His response was this, "Do you know what would happen to the markets if every retail investor knew this?" To which i replied Yes.... it would be a fucking nightmare for the markets, people would look elsewhere to fund their retirement. He said they would stop investing in the markets, invest everything in real estate/land and that would be that.
Leaving a potential finance industry and banks in the lurch, this would also remove the ability for central banks to draw on your registered funds, removing spendable money from the treasuries.
Well damn that would be bad.
This prof also asked very clearly as anyone who has critical thinking skills would do... "How do i get my real shares like when i had my old certificates sent to me?"
I laughed and said, "Find the transfer agent, tell your broker you want your shares to be directly registered with the transfer agent. I also confirmed it must be in BOOK.
He's going to follow the bread crumbs and confirm for himself. "If this happens to be the case, he will begin adding this into curriculum".
Now, wouldn't that be a way to spread knowledge. He also asked that I come and speak to his classes.
Edit1 - small grammatical errors. Edit2 - Prof. is personal finance

Hey All!
I've been looking into two masters programs:
1.) MSc Finance in Sustainable Finance
2.) MSc International Business and Economics in Sustainable Finance and Investments
Wondering what your opinions are on the better route to take? The MSc Fin looks to be focused on general finance topics before relating it to sustainable finance. The MSc Ibus looks to teach the finance topics alongside sustainable finance ideas, as well as two courses in economics.
I got my Bachelor degree in Finance and I want to shape my career in Sustainable Finance. I love finance but don't necessarily see myself crunching numbers at a desk the rest of my life as an analyst. My instinct is that the MSc Fin would provide a stronger background moving forward and kickstarting my career.
As for prestige of the schools, the MSc Fin is ranked higher in business, while the MSc Ibus is ranked higher overall. Further, the location of the MSc Ibus is more attractive to me than the MSc Fin... How much weight does the degree title and prestige carry?
Any Thoughts? Thanks :)
At my Canadian school I have options of Honours Economics, Economics, and Finance as majors. Finance is not an included minor but I could major in Finance and minor in economics.
Does it really matter what what major I have if I want to get into banking? How much does one limit me?

Last month I made a post about Free Educational courses on Learning to become a Developer. The post became very popular and I hope it inspired many people to begin down that path, as they CryptoCurrency industry certainly could use more developers!
One thing the CryptoCurrency industry could also use more of, is Finance and Economy experts. Because of this, I decided to compile another list of Free Educational courses on Finance, Economics, and related topics.
As with the previous post, all courses listed here are Free to take, and come with Free Certificates of Competition or Digital Badge equivalents. The main providers are Saylor Academy and National Paralegal College.

Happy learning friends!
(Note: If you have additional Educational Resources, please post them in the comments and I will update this list accordingly.)
I have been accepted into college and am ready to begin my college career. I would like to have a job career that is in the business/financial related world. I would like to make a lot of money, and some day go off and do my own thing. Like my own business or maybe day trading, but more preferably my own business.
I’m not sure what degree I should pursue for my goals. I know that a finance degree, an economics degree, and even a business degree would be great for my goals. However, I’m not sure entirely which one it should be. Because I feel business, although not easy to run or manage, is something that you’re good at with experience instead of knowledge alone.
I’m not sure as of right now, but I will be pursuing my master’s in whatever degree I decide on. If you can provide any help that would be amazing. Thank you!
