  • Accounting is the language of business. Much like you cannot understand what type of dish you are ordering if you don't know the language of the menu, you cannot understand what type of business you are buying in the stock market if you don't know financial statements.
    By the way, don't worry. You don't need a college degree in accounting or math for this. You just need to listen to how Bob makes shady deals with the Swedish Mars Mafia and how he beats his second Cousin Stephan to build the first empire of restaurants on the red planet.

    My goal with this channel is to help you make more money and improve your personal finances. How to become a millionaire? There are many ways to get there - investing in the stock market, becoming a stock trader, doing real estate investing, or why not becoming an entrepreneur? But whether you are interested in how to invest in stocks or investing strategies for creating passive income with rental properties - I hope to be able to provide you with a solution (or at least an idea) here. Warren Buffett - the greatest investor of our time - says that you should fill your mind with competing ideas and then see what makes sense to you. This channel is about filling your mind with those ideas. And in the process - upgrading your money-making toolbox.

      Yes and no. It can make you have a general understanding of these things. However, every line in these financial statement has its own chapter and it is very hard. I was a Summa Cum Laude graduate in Taxation in U of Houston. Some of these are still my nightmare like hedgefund and derivatives.

    Just incredibly well explained all throughout. I myself have an easier time learning when there's a concrete example explaining all the concepts. I've been investing for a couple of years now but some parts of the financial statement have never been completely clear to me, but now I feel like I have a much greater understanding of the statements. Fantastic work!
