Dude did not live a dull life, that's for sure! Also, "speculators of quality" has got to be the best phrase I have heard this pandemic! This dude was Chancellor of the Exchequer, Governor of the Central Bank, Head of the capital markets authority, Minister of international trade, Colonial administrator of America, Head of foreign intelligence, womanizer, murderer, gambler, serial fugitive from justice and stock promoter all in one! What could possibly go wrong? There was never a more inappropriately named man to walk God's green earth! This I swear.
Came for the financial lessons stayed for interesting history. Patrick you’re not only very knowledgeable in finance you’re an excellent narrator. I loved the documentary you did on Ponzi and Law.
@@PBoyle where were the Jews from that were goldsmiths and financiers? Historically, Poland was a Jewish state and them with only The Netherlands were the only countries of Europe that didn't banish Jews per gov policy
Living in Frankfurt I enjoyed the pleasure of listening to this video while biking past European central Bank, the sight of which has often made me deeply wonder about the meaning of money. Thank you very much for the very informative, yet highly entertaining content!
I have a strong feeling every single one of my classmates would have ignored every part of this had it been a lesson. Also it would have taken several days to get by this had it been a lesson.
Spectacular video! I realize no one will read this, I’m only feeding the algorithm. Still, that was a captivating story, really well told. I’m French, I thought I wasn’t horrible at this period of history, and I simply had no idea. Thanks Patrick!
I studied from Scotland: I studied Economic History and Modern Studies at College in Glasgow circa 1973. I wish I'd have had access to your content then. Still, "Every day's a school day".
What a fantastic video. This really made me think deeply about what money is. Please, please, please continue making similar long form videos. God bless
Well done. Incredibly interesting and mind-blowing. Any number of happenings could be further explained for hours. 40 private owners of the debt...illustrates the never -ending influence of a select few on the masses. The search for ‘sound-money-‘, the inter/play between confidence & currencies, and the underlying Affect it has on the daily life of all. The overwhelmingly irony is still alive today...the gamblers (like John Law) and speculators are still the money changers of today.
Fascinating and brilliant, thanks. I'm Scottish, and at school the only person who knew anything about John Law was a student teacher from France. She was amazed that we knew so little about our own homegrown historical "heroes"
Patrick, it is clear to me that you are, like me, a very well educated man. Thus, I want to give you those kudos that ensue. Your's are of the highest quality versus others who post on UA-cam. You have my congratulations, respecting your posts.
I’ve watched this video about four times over the last two and a half years. Rewatched again because I think one of the interesting lessons for today is that the massive increase in money supply did not immediately lead to proportionate inflation for everyday items. Much like in the wake of QE since 2009, when some were predicting hyperinflation, the world enjoyed relatively low (sub 2% average) inflation for the next decade. Massive central bank money printing led at first to misallocation of the new money in speculative assets like stocks and real estate. Only after more than a decade of QE, culminating in the helicopter money in response to the Covid pandemic, did inflation begin to hit commodities. Richard Cantillon, one of Law’s contemporaries, observed those who receive newly printed money early on tend to benefit in the form of higher wealth and that inflation at first has localised effects on areas close to the primary dealers of his era. It has to filter out into the broader economy before commodity inflation begins to appear, as is the case with inflation in France resulting from Law’s asset bubble. It made millionaires at first but eventually resulted in prices for goods doubling between 1718 and 1720. Sound familiar to anyone following interest rates since the Great Recession? Law appears to have opted to let the bubble pop in part to create a reverse wealth effect to counter inflation from exogenous shocks like the port lockdowns and accaparement of agricultural commodities.
I’m Massively impressed ! Having watched this video for a second time I believe it is the best of the several histories on UA-cam . Thank you Mr Patrick Boyle
Found your channel recently, can’t stop watching. So interesting and the topics you cover so thoroughly is scratching an itch I didn’t even know I had. Thank you .
Thanks Patrick, I love your historical content. It sparks an enjoyment of finance that sometimes gets lost in day to day tasks. Being reminded of people like John Law reinforces the power of tire kicking, introspection, and remaining inquisitively engaged with the world
You kept my attention for nearly 40 minutes straight with a rivetting story. Incredible video Patrick, I expect I'll be watching it again sometime. It deserves many more views than this. Hopefully this comment helps the algorithm!
Hey Patrick I came across your channel from the interview you had with Coffeezilla just wanted to say you gave me some hope and opened something I didn't see but knew that it existed.
20:40 “The meaning of value is related not to its usefulness but to rarity. Diamonds are significantly less value able than water which is required for human life but water is less valuable than diamonds because it’s availability is far greater excess than the demand for it.” Brings me back to high school AP Macroeconomic days! Law of supply and demand baby.
The most interesting part I found in this is that after having heard about all the complaints about money not being backed by gold anymore being bad the society where money was literally made from gold ended up trusting it less than notes backed by gold in the form of coins because of the clipping issue. Also generally interesting to see how we see money today isn't a given
@BoBandy Which is worth more than gold. Who do you trust when in trouble ? A kg of metal, or the government ? I think you'd see that when everyone is starving, yellow pretty metal is just as useless as its weight in poop.
@@ypierro Trusting in government is a fools idea. Specially about food, during the Great Depression the government ordered milk and livestock be destroyed. If you still had your gold you could buy what little food was left. I’d trust yellow metal over career criminals.
They preferred the paper money because it was meant to be directly exchangeable for a fixed amount of gold or silver. Coins were meant to be that fixed entity, but as you said, people would clip and shave them, so they weren't an ideal solution to the problem. What the people did not sign up for though, was the complete abolishment of gold as a store of value. The concept of value held in gold and silver was alive and well, they just thought they'd moved to a better implementation - one that couldn't be devalued by clipping and shaving. Unfortunately it suffered from another problem - in the end a central authority could devalue it at will by decoupling it from the precious metals.
This is a superb telling of a story I've read in many places, will check Millionaire... This channel is a fantastic resource, please keep the content coming. Thank you
Funny how an Engineer says Holland success is due to Saw Mill, while a Finance Specialist says Holland success is due to it's innovation in paper money and credit. Thanks a lot for the new edge of history understanding. The finance one.
About 15 minutes in now. Loving it so far. Looking forward to finishing the video And seeing what other interesting content your library offers! Keep up the good work!
im interested in an overview of speculative bubbles, their origins, mechanics, how it propagates/continues and finally how it (eventually?) pops the story also hammered into me the importance of credit availability and interest rates in pushing up asset prices
What I have learn are: (i) Be careful with paper "money" and the conter-party risks; you dont know when it dies of sudden death. What I dont know is how to time when the £, $USD or Euro meets its demise. (ii) Pattern of bubble and human insanity with respect to speculation and greed. The BTC spectacular raise may bear some resemblance to what happened in John Law's time. (iii) Ability to re-invent oneself like Mr John Law. (iv) When SHTF, governments will stop you to take your gold outside the country. Please add more at wills. God Bless.
Thank you! Your content has been so enlightening and appreciate a real education approach. Finally getting to learn about a passion that has been breeding in me for years but lacked a real understanding of these complex concepts. Keep it up!
Awesome video, it's so crazy he doesn't have a movie yet, or at least a decent documentary. well, now he surely has a good documentary video tho :) For me the lesson learned from this, is that money is an ever-changing technology, it only has value as long as people believe it has. John Law's mistake, or rather France's 'mistake' was that it was a monarchy. If there is no friction in government, if a couple of powerful people is left unchecked and especially if they control money, they will always abuse it in the long run. Also, I really like the story of the first paper money in China, would love to here that from you too :)
Thanks Patric , very interesting . It is old story that seems to repeat. I would really like to hear a study on the Hunt Brothers I find in very interesting .
Love your videos - so interesting and informative you’ve got me hooked. Off to make a cuppa and get the biscuits ready to watch your Ponzi scheme video. Keep up the good work - and by the way - nice tailoring.
Perfect as always Patrick, You could have added some character to the material by placing some oil painting of the period on the white wall behind you, that'd be very amusing for the viewers I think!
STEM and Finance/Economy today are always taught starting from complex principles that are just thrown at you like if it's so easy, it makes everything look so much harder than things really are. It always made me run away. But I learned a couple years back, none of these fields are to be afraid of and are fairly accessible once you deconstruct how principles and tools were brought in not over the course of a single man's life, but over and after centuries of failures, sometimes milleniums. Glad I found you to tell the tales of economy and finance so that it has exactly this effect on me: it makes things a lot easier to apprehend. Incredible work, thank you soooo much!
Thanks for this clear explanation. I've always been fascinated with this historic episode, and think it would make for a great historical comedy-drama, sort of like "Blackadder meets The Big SHort".
Excellent video, congratulations. I leaned about John Law through Charles Mackay : " Extraordinary popular delusions and the madness of crowds" ( 1852 edition).
You sir just saved at least a day of my life, cause I would have binged watched the netflix series with this story and I am sure they would have milked at least 3 seasons out of all this information. the biggest lesson? I guess it would be that greed and speculation are inherent to the human race and will manifest at any point in history if given the right set of conditions.
Very nice. I learned a lot about monetary policy before this from the book by Liaquat Ahamed on central banks “Lords of Finance: the bankers who broke the world”.... which is about the beginnings of modern central banking mostly in the pre WWI and interwar period.

What great video, history always repeats it self! Maybe you could do a video about the south sea bubble?

Sir could you please share credible financial newspapers which helps to keep students up to date with everyday news with highest accuracy.
"What can we learn...?" --> Apparently nothing, since this is effectively happening right now.
Please do more documentaries!!😊😊😊😇

Great Comment.
Dayum boy, where you find this?
Hedge funds are still only allowed for " accredited investors" (people with either over 1 million in assets or 200k income)
😂😂😂😂
Came for the financial lessons stayed for interesting history. Patrick you’re not only very knowledgeable in finance you’re an excellent narrator. I loved the documentary you did on Ponzi and Law.
great biography, you are so different to the others because you explain the finance principles, not just the public perception
Glad you liked it!
It's without a doubt the best telling of the John Law story in terms of educating yourself
Definitely one of the smartest people on UA-cam. Your content is always interesting 🎉
Wouldn't deflation have solved the coin-shortage problem? Supply and demand: short supply of coin results in increased value of the coin.
@@PBoyle where were the Jews from that were goldsmiths and financiers? Historically, Poland was a Jewish state and them with only The Netherlands were the only countries of Europe that didn't banish Jews per gov policy

I wish we spent more time learning things like this in school. THIS is education.
Thank you.
Kick the commie marxists our of your schools, and you will have education.. again
I have a strong feeling every single one of my classmates would have ignored every part of this had it been a lesson. Also it would have taken several days to get by this had it been a lesson.
If this and Modern Monetary Theory were taught in secondary schools there would be a bloody revolution.
OMG All of this in one lifetime. I'm knackered just listening to it. Thanks for sharing
Spectacular video! I realize no one will read this, I’m only feeding the algorithm. Still, that was a captivating story, really well told. I’m French, I thought I wasn’t horrible at this period of history, and I simply had no idea. Thanks Patrick!

Hey Patrick I came across your channel from the interview you had with Coffeezilla just wanted to say you gave me some hope and opened something I didn't see but knew that it existed.
I came from cofeezilla too .. no regrets : )
Patrick, this was an absolutely incredible story! What a great job you did telling this story!
We all really benifit from your lectures, I am greatful for this, please keep up the good work!
Thank you for what you do Patrick. I first learned about you from the Tom Nash interview. Now I’m really glad I did. Learning new things daily.
20:40 “The meaning of value is related not to its usefulness but to rarity. Diamonds are significantly less value able than water which is required for human life but water is less valuable than diamonds because it’s availability is far greater excess than the demand for it.”

Thank you for this history lesson, absolutely loved it 😊 love the content you share with us, always interesting stuff
Amazing story and great video, I like hearing about Scotlands role in finance
This is a superb telling of a story I've read in many places, will check Millionaire... This channel is a fantastic resource, please keep the content coming. Thank you
Wonderful story told by an impressive storyteller!
This video is the best concise history of this I have found
Such a simple concept, but enlightening to hear it explained again
This is the best telling. of the John Law strory I have ever heard. Very well done.
Funny how an Engineer says Holland success is due to Saw Mill, while a Finance Specialist says Holland success is due to it's innovation in paper money and credit.
Thanks a lot for the new edge of history understanding. The finance one.
The "CONfidence Man" never goes out of style.
Kinda funny how they keep being nationalized
Wow mr Boyle you always teach me something new everyday I watch your blog
I am interested in your understanding of The Great Reset. Thank you.
Great story, very well summarized!
Thank you, Patrick.
You are the best...
Marvelous, ty Patrick. Enjoyed it.
I love the hunchback vignette! It has all been done before if one bothers to look at history.
Ok, I'm bingeing Patrick - does this make me a suave, droll nerd?
Cheers from Australia Patrick, love your deadpan delivery.

Once again an excellent job! Very interesting life story.
I totally enjoy listen to you read the old history then i reading myself. Thank you

Fantastic your work is a wonderful discovery. Thank you
Absolutely fascinating! Thank you! I am saving to video to watch it again!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Videos keep getting better and better
It was really interesting. Personally, I didn't know about this guy and now I am just wondering how I missed this. Thanks a lot.
Thanks Patric , very interesting . It is old story that seems to repeat. I would really like to hear a study on the Hunt Brothers I find in very interesting .
Fantastic video. Thank you very much
Love your videos - so interesting and informative you’ve got me hooked. Off to make a cuppa and get the biscuits ready to watch your Ponzi scheme video. Keep up the good work - and by the way - nice tailoring.
Excellent description of economics principles using interesting true stories.
Perfect as always Patrick, You could have added some character to the material by placing some oil painting of the period on the white wall behind you, that'd be very amusing for the viewers I think!
Outstanding presentation. Thank you
A fascinating history lesson! Every minute of listening was interesting. Thank you so much! Please make more of these long form videos! 👏👏👏
Thank you for the video. Amazing.
Tbank You Patrick what a fantastic. Storey!
That was really good! Please do more episodes like this
I’m so glad that I’m subscribe to this channel is always so interesting and informative.
Mr,. Patrick I am so grateful to your channel. Many Thanks!
Thank you Patrick for imparting such interesting information so eloquently.
You are a credit to your family and educators.
This was excellent. The thoroughness was unexpected but very appreciated.
These are really high quality documentaries
Great video, Patrick! Thanks for sharing

Aww yes john law great story. Ty for the content Patrick
What great content. Good work Patrick, keep it up.
brilliant guy - and thank you for contributing to our knowledge and erudition!
Thanks for this clear explanation. I've always been fascinated with this historic episode, and think it would make for a great historical comedy-drama, sort of like "Blackadder meets The Big SHort".
Amazing storytelling!
Very enthralling history and amazing storytelling. Thanks so much!
Amazing story
This is the best video I've heard all year
Patrick, thanks for all the research and such great content :)
Very well done, i enjoyed watching this.
Patrick is the only person to use video blocks in a way that doesn't distract and annoy the viewer.
You are so good at your craft sir.
Excellent video, congratulations.
I leaned about John Law through Charles Mackay : " Extraordinary popular delusions and the madness of crowds" ( 1852 edition).
A great book!
Thank you sir for an absolutely fantastic presentation I wish O could like this video twice👍👍👍👍👍
You sir just saved at least a day of my life, cause I would have binged watched the netflix series with this story and I am sure they would have milked at least 3 seasons out of all this information. the biggest lesson? I guess it would be that greed and speculation are inherent to the human race and will manifest at any point in history if given the right set of conditions.
Your channel should have 1m+ subscribers and your videos 100m+ views.
Awesome vidoe bro, could you do one on the south sea bubble, that would be dope af!
Great video, highly informative.
No to me John law was a maverick before his time after hear you describe it he was a key to the new way how money was made
This is the most interesting thing I’ve heard in years. Love your channel, it’s what I listen to when I wake up.
This is a yr old. Only finding it now. And absolutely loved it. Thank you
I just love how this guy explains the Finance aspect of historical stories
Very nice. I learned a lot about monetary policy before this from the book by Liaquat Ahamed on central banks “Lords of Finance: the bankers who broke the world”.... which is about the beginnings of modern central banking mostly in the pre WWI and interwar period.
