  • Zeus (Jason Sudeikis) summons the gods to Mt. Olympus to solve the financial crisis in Greece. Realizing no Greek god is in charge of economics, Zeus brings in a strict German god (Fred Armisen) to deal with the problem. [Season 37, 2011]

      Alright, here are some tips on Greek mythology for clarification:
      1. Hermes was the god of Commerce and trade, thus being the most fitted for god of finance.
      2. Hades is NOT god of wealth. That's Plutus (Πλούτος) whose name literally means wealth and riches. NOT to be confused with Pluto (Πλούτων), which is a euphemistic name for Hades, god of the underworld and the dead. Plutus and Pluto are NOT THE SAME.
      Greek mythology can be a bit confusing sometimes and has a lot of things going on. (I should know, as a Greek and an individual that has spent hours studying on them).

      @@OnlyHuman24 Hades was initially the god of the underworld and therefore the place where the dead reside but as the time progressed in order to give Hades a better less grim image the Greeks also associated him with wealth and gave him the name Pluton since Greeks literally believed that the underworld lied beneath our feet so did all the precious metals such as gold, silver, gems etc considered also part of Hades' domain or sphere of influence
      By the time the Romans came in contact with the Greeks Hades was already known as Pluton

      Bro Zeus is literally the most benevolent being in the myths. He is the most reasonable of all. In fact they wrote specific stories to show how good a leader is, when Hera, Apollo etc drugged and tied him up to overthrow him, all Zeus did was hang her by chains between heaven and Earth (above the pit of chaos in some versions). That's literally less punishment than a real life person would receive for drugging and tying someone up. Any other god would have thrown them all to tartarus.

      Dude if the actually u r referring to here refers to the facts in the video,then u r correct but if it refers to the actual Greek Mythology,Hades was the Lord of the underworld and master of Thanos when Roman Mythology adopted Hades into the role of Pluto,he assumed an extra role as the God of Wealth coz of the Roman logic that the wealth(minerals and rare gems ,precious stones) comes from the earth ,Hermes was the God of Thieves,travellers and of trade....

      Because people aren't seeking accuracy on a skit. If it is funny, just leave the way it is and if you know what is correct then be happy that you know it.

    Apollo's the Greek God of music (amongst other things), but the Yanni joke was good. Hades is the God of wealth (since gold, silver, etc. are mined from under the earth, and he's in charge of everything below the surface), but it would have killed the joke if he just told the Greeks where to dig . . . and you have to have money for mining equipment and paying miners, so it would've been too late for that anyway.
