    You are really amazing, sir. You just saved my exams at Uni and also youre giving me a hell a lot of information to become more wealthy. I will make sure to watch all your videos! People who say this is boring are crazy, because you're also a fun teacher to watch!

    I agree with you. People want money for no effort. Even watching a few videos is too much for some folk! Hopefully those people that do make the effort to watch them take away some useful hints and tips. Thanks for the feedback and keep spreading the word. As you say they are free after all....

    Thank you for this. Normally when my lecturers recommend a video to watch they are extremely dull and therefore hard to take anything away from. This was very informative and your way of conveying the information is brilliant. I have subscribed and will make sure to watch more for my own knowledge.

    It's weird, people always want to be rich. Mr Bennet's videos hold a wealth of information you could use to maximise you income, on the stock market, bonds etc and they're free and they have only max 10,000 views?
    I try showing people I know these when they ask about making money and where to start, then they say the video's are "boring and for accountants" or "it'll take too long to learn" and then complain about being 'broke' all the time. Go figure.

    if your business has solid sales margins and is growing, this cash problem can be fixed by getting straight loans from banks in order to cover the working capital requirement

  • @edc1967
    @edc1967 3 роки тому

    I would also calculate the business cash cycle in days YoY. (Accounts receivables in days plus inventory in days minus Accounts Payables in days) which would indicate the working capital needs in days. If it is increasing YoY it may very well be indicative of working capital mismanagement.

    Hey Tim. I have a question. Just recently I read about Emirates airlines planning to make an investment of around 80 billion dollars on aircrafts and equipment. That got me wondering how an airline whose net annual profits hardly exceeds 300 million dollars can end up making such a huge investment. It'd be great if you could provide an explanation. On a different note, would you personally invest in a company like the Emirates group? I checked its annual report and the profit listings are impressive.
    PS. You're doing an amazing job posting these videos. Keep going.

  • @kholkeholkepolke1135
    @kholkeholkepolke1135 5 років тому

    I'm confused.. Companies themselves, dish out loans? I thought all credit, was through financial institutions.. Credit is instant income.. Why would companies, accrue debt, when there's financial institutions, for that reason? Or, are we talking about companies, that loan to their own conglomerate?

    • @VexVengeance
      @VexVengeance 5 років тому +1

      A lot businesses are credit-based businesses. I.e, they offer payment terms to customers to pay over months with post dated checks or installments. If you offer 180 day payment terms to a customer and you pay your suppliers in 30 days, you're likely to go bust. In fact, this is exactly what is happening to a lot of businesses in Dubai. He explained it incredibly well.

    • @faithlesshound5621
      @faithlesshound5621 3 роки тому

      When there are only a few large buyers, they can insist on their own terms, like long delays before payment. The supermarkets do that to British farmers. They may even insist on the farmer selling only to them: which puts the seller at risk if they take a dislike to the product, or decide they want a "contribution" to help with some problem.
      Remember Michael Heseltine, once deputy prime minister, who said that as a businessman he had delayed paying bills to avoid going bust.

    @shakaama 11 років тому +1

    not to poopoo on Tim's passion and acumen, but if a person really wants to invest, these videos are not what I would point to as appropriate for an investor. An investor's education comes at the under the sword of Damocles, hanging over the abyss, drowning in agony and burning in a lake of fire. Then, just maybe, then they will figure it out on their own.
    Investing is like the difference between known how the chess pieces move vs how to win at chess. Any fool can pick up an investing book.
