There was an economist in 1929 who knew shit with the stock market was about to hit the fan precisely when the boy shining his shoes gave him stock tips
You may be referring to either Bernard Baruch or Joe Kennedy, President Kennedy's dad. Both specifically mentioned shoeshine guys. As a former shoeshine boy on the streets of Boston in the '60s, I concur. When EVERYONE is an expert and feeling "heady," it's probably time to calmly exit the casino. The sheep are about to be sheered. Groucho Marx cited hearing investment advice from elevator operators as the heralds of the '29 downfall.
I remember there being some kind of similar video about parking spaces where he seemed to lose the plot. And now he's back on my feed. Nonetheless I enjoy these.
Essentially.. From what I’ve gathered in my few years of research.. The big fish are all in early, and they can only sell to buyers at the top… so if you’re hearing about investments from uninvolved parties, the bubble is about ready to pop.. Maybe good for one quick trade and then it becomes a landslide. As the hype draws buyers in, the sellers happily sell and leave a bunch of bag holders at the top. A few exceptions like Tesla and Bitcoin keep the gamblers and hopeful pouring in as it deflates and the handoffs commence
Let me get the straight this dude pays for his son's expensive tuition from either shining shoes or all the information he gets from the rich narcissists spilling the secrets
That's actually pretty cool that you can say you were a shoe shiner at one point. It feels like that's become a pretty dead practice. You've got something on your resume, almost nobody else has, and that's a big flex
Its more so have a ton of assets and hire people to monitor them for you my suggestion would be to pay them with a cut of the profit rather than pay them a flat fee that way they Will only make money if you make money and you won’t be in debt if things don’t work out
This just makes me think of what i learned. I went to a high school with a LOT of very rich families. and I learned that the people who really act rude are the people who are high middle class but wish they were rich. the super well off people are generally really nice
I think that maybe the rich guy has ego and social status issues, while the really rich guy doesn't have a need to prove himself and can look beyond ego and status.
Read a book once where the main character sneaks into a kitchen to talk to the staff. He learns more from them just by taking the time to listen. Both from what they say and what they don't say. Some of your tips remind me of that approach and how it helped the hero find his way.
I love your sketches. I've always been a poor bastard, never got along with high society because of exactly the things you bring up from the "rich guy". Then I had a neighbor who has a necklace under his shirt with a pure gram of gold, in case he ever got robbed, he could just give them lots of untraceable money to avoid trouble. He lived in the slums with me in a trash apartment. Was the sweetest old guy I ever met and never realized how loaded he was till one of his friends brought up how their investments brought in a few million that month. He was embarrassed by it and his wealth rather than prideful. It was so weird and made me finally realize that the wealthy make the rich look poor and aren't usually the huge assholes. Aaaaaanyway, love the sketches.
Yeah. You notice it in the really rich, they split their business from their person. They will always be the guy dressing however the fuck they want and rarely ever having a suit or expensive items worn on them.
My mother in law is like that. Drives a Honda, lives in a nice home in a nice neighborhood but it’s not over the top. She’s a real estate agent, for over 3 decades. Little Italian woman. Comes from old money, generational wealth, is the heir to it all. Moved to another state in college, loved the state and stayed. She bartended, bought her first house in her 20’s, got her real estate license, works hard, still works a ton. She doesn’t brag about anything and lives modestly. I remember for her birthday I bought her this purse while I was in Las Vegas, beautiful Italian bag, solid color with a nice big buckle on it. She liked it, used it. Few weeks later she gives it back to me, because a coworker complimented her on the bag. Lol. Now my husband, he’s the opposite, he’s definitely that newer generation, acts like how a celeb kid acts. Trust fund guy who parties in his late 30’s like he’s in college. Talks down to people like he’s better than him, works whenever he wants, mostly at friends businesses that are lax, can pretty much do whatever, go have beers on lunch break, just ridiculous. Narcissist, addict, no work ethic, drives luxury car, show off, would buy everyone’s drinks just to show he got money. It’s gross to me.
I think it's more supposed to be a commentary on how really successful people listen to everyone while f "Fake successful" people like to look likenthey know it all. I dont know if this is true of these kinds of people but it is a common narrative.
@@SublimeWanderers I looked it up again. Robert Kennedy Sr got out of the market when his shoe shine was giving him stock advice and avoided the crash. The video is referencing that.
@@EquinoxGate poorly worded but it's true. If you wanna know who someone really is when they don't want something from you, ask someone society looks down on. I know this cuz I worked as a janitor for a few years. I've seen people scowl at me, then put on smiles for the owner. Every time it happened I would tell my boss what happened and he was always happy to know.
@@timsullivan2769 I agree. I get to know people because they're good people. But I'm saying this as someone who was a janitor for a few years. People don't think you matter so they don't filter themselves. Either they reveal their true colors or they tell you some juicy info they can't share otherwise.
I’ve seen this first hand as an electrician. The ones who are genuinely really rich are the absolute nicest people. I was wiring a huge house for this guy and his wife that they were building and every morning there’d be donuts and coffee and breakfast sandwiches for everyone working. He’d also come around ever so often to touch base and offer me and my crew beers. Of course we said no since we’re working but the gesture is nice. Oh and he also trusted our decisions on anything electrical, was never rude or pushy. And actually gave us the space to work comfortably without someone over our shoulder. The slightly rich will just hover the whole time!
There is not a single MISS in your entire series. Leads me to believe you are either really rich or, like this shoe shiner, you work in close proximity to them.
omg! this happened to me...but I was in a hospital reception waiting on an interview and two financially comfortable looking gentlemen were discussing stocks....I kept my head down and unplugged my ears and listened....and went to drop the hints to my very comfortable family friend and he appreciated the tips...
When I was younger I worked in in home care. One of my clients was a multi millionaire but she lived in a regular house in an average neighborhood with her husband. I’ll never forget her- she was in the last weeks of her life and she loved to tell us stories about how it had been. She was a housewife until her kids went away to college, and her husband I think was a school janitor. She needed something to do with herself so she went and sat in on some courses at the college that taught her about investing, and then her and her friend would go to the local mall (the same mall is completely dead and closed down now), and they had their pencil and paper and they would ask kids what kinds of things were ‘in’ and then they would invest in stuff like that. She had her little office and she had her broker license I think is what it was- I forget. Anyway, you could tell she ran that household. Her sweet husband waited on her hand and foot, and he never wanted to leave her side and she would tell him he needed to get away. “Why don’t you go to the store, dear, and you know what, you can buy anything you want”. And she was would tell me most multi millionaires were just like her, living in the house next door.
I cant remember wich Prof told me this story in uni but some business dude always was on point knowing the secrets of the competitors business that were on the same city, always knew what they bought and how much (like in office supply materials or new stock) because he once carried an extra sandwich and gave it away to a guy who clean trash for the city, they became friends and always gave him a free breakfast so he told him about every cardstock box of the competitor from the office supplies to the products in stock, every day
One of my teammates from football is going to Princeton to play running back. It's crazy how being from a small town and still doing good in something you love can give you a whole ride in a very expensive school.
I learned this tip from my grandmother. She told me if I were to get into stocks to always start selling when everyone is buying in. She also told me to pay attention to what kids are doing. She said she always regretted buying into nuclear power instead of Nintendo and Sega right after the video game crash.
@Nicholas Crown try putting a color effect on the rich vs really rich. There needs to be a better visual cue to land these bits. Or maybe a persistent border that notes which one you’re on.
Good advice to listen rather than talk.. One can learn a lot more when they stop being full of themselves and actually listen to other people. Just because someone has a more menial job does not mean they are stupid. They could be working their way through college or working to put their kid through. Still, I have to admit, being a vet from back when the army still wore the old school black leather combat boots, I love a good spit shine.
I'm honestly still a big fan of a proper mirror shine but if you want it to last it's the sort of thing you have to put serious time to build up initially (and redo every now and then). I'm assuming the idea is that he wants something quick and smart looking that's not too fussy or too much to maintain, which is fine. Can also depend on the shoe but there's a pretty solid chance they're cap toe oxfords or similar
Best trick I learned about betting on horses at the track; find the guy with the broom and dustpan, be friendly, and ask him who is his favorite jockey. Don't bet solely based on the guys answer, but if you think you see a good horse in the paddock, and that jockey is the one scheduled to ride it, you're probably on to a good bet.
back when I worked at Wall Street, we use to have this guy who would just ride the Staten Island Ferry and shout "Shine!". found out many years later he use to live in a really nice neighborhood in queens and paid for his son's college from just shining shoes! I then Graduated from being a Stock Broker to selling Cigs at the ferry terminal and making a Killing! Bought Properties in Pittsburgh and only go to NYC if I really have to nowadays
I work for a small business, two locations, and the owner is extremely hands-on and kind. Every idea is heard, and everyone is taken seriously. I just came in as a first-time manager almost two years ago, and I'm now running the largest team we've ever had. Demand is very high and I'm enthusiastic to keep growing. I model myself largely after him: be kind, listen, give credit where it's due. Oh, and raises in dollar increments. That ten cent crap is an insult.
One of the first ever photographs ever taken shows a man in the distance getting a shoe shine. Man’s was gettin his shits spruced up and had no idea he would be a major part of human history
Life is like an RPG. You can really go around asking if people have heard local rumors or what people are talking about and you'll hear it all. Don't just play RPGs and do side quests in Skyrim. Live them. Find local gigs by talking to the bartender - and always tip well.
So I've been watching these since a couple of weeks now and they definitely have an odd appeal to them. It's a combination of cringe and the variations of the same formula that make them fun to watch. Reminds me of those boomer motivational stories that used to get circulated through emails.
@@floatingpoint20 true but they're so fucking goofy. Like why the fuck would an ultra rich oligarch or CEO end up on tik tok making videos about how he despises slightly less rich CEOs lol wtf
I love this channel because its basically this guy going "heres why im better than everyone else around me who i hate" put into youtube skits. Like, the lesson is very surface level and when you make the same story over and over again in different contexts it gets dull but everytime i come back and want to see what the regular rich guy character is up to
I do like these when they pop up. I do not think of it as rich people versus rich people. I think of it as people without class versus people that have class and a little bit of decency
You're not wrong but think on it like this, if everyone starts buying and the price goes up artificially by say 30% then next thing people start thinking it's a good time to sell. Once people start selling the price starts crashing and people panic and sell in larger volumes, before you know it it's worthless. That's just my oversimplified and uneducated explaination.
Bad to enter a position on a rumour. Good to close for a profit, wait on the sidelines to see if it’s a fact. Buy back in if it’s still a worthy investment, or just short it on the way down and buy back in to your original position at a discount

Life is like an RPG. You can really go around asking if people have heard local rumors or what people are talking about and you'll hear it all. Don't just play RPGs and do side quests in Skyrim. Live them. Find local gigs by talking to the bartender - and always tip well.
this is literally just self-inserts bro who does this appeal to
the people who still think the American dream didn't die in the 70s
People who understand finance. The Other direction is behind you, btw :-)
@@natenero ah so you’re the first guy receiving a shoe shine
So I've been watching these since a couple of weeks now and they definitely have an odd appeal to them. It's a combination of cringe and the variations of the same formula that make them fun to watch.
Reminds me of those boomer motivational stories that used to get circulated through emails.
@@floatingpoint20 true but they're so fucking goofy. Like why the fuck would an ultra rich oligarch or CEO end up on tik tok making videos about how he despises slightly less rich CEOs lol wtf
I love this channel because its basically this guy going "heres why im better than everyone else around me who i hate" put into youtube skits. Like, the lesson is very surface level and when you make the same story over and over again in different contexts it gets dull but everytime i come back and want to see what the regular rich guy character is up to
"If the shoeshine boys are giving market tips, then it's time to get out of the market"
Pretty much
That "this thing called Meta" a year ago aged really well
I do like these when they pop up. I do not think of it as rich people versus rich people. I think of it as people without class versus people that have class and a little bit of decency
The German lady caught me off guard🤣
The whole point of this is communication. How one communicates receives and gives information
Shoe shining history, love it ❤️
I’m sorry I might be wrong, but isn’t it a bad move to liquidate before the new demand from rumor for stock hits the market and raises the price?
You're not wrong but think on it like this, if everyone starts buying and the price goes up artificially by say 30% then next thing people start thinking it's a good time to sell. Once people start selling the price starts crashing and people panic and sell in larger volumes, before you know it it's worthless. That's just my oversimplified and uneducated explaination.
@@memberberries3615 then you buy back in and the stock goes back to normal.
@@fryloc359 Possibly but if the stock or in this case the crypto was always worthless it will most likely never recover.
Bad to enter a position on a rumour. Good to close for a profit, wait on the sidelines to see if it’s a fact. Buy back in if it’s still a worthy investment, or just short it on the way down and buy back in to your original position at a discount
Don't underestimate low-income workers, cuz they had the best source of rumors and juicy info.
This shit is so true. The guy at the old World Trade Center was very astute. I always heard stories about him.
I love how they're arguing whether Yale or princeton is best when Harvard exists
