If we think inflation is already bad in countries like the US, Great Britain, Australia, or the EU, then we haven’t seen anything yet. In this video, I would like to delve into Argentina, where the inflation rate has skyrocketed to a whopping 104%. What are the effects of this on the economy, political policies, and the people? How can they even cope? What has led to this inflation? What were the government decisions that created this mess, and are they any different from what politicians decide here in the West? What can we learn from this, and how can we ensure that we don’t lose everything?
HSBC BANK REVIEW: Why I am leaving HSBC in 2020
Subscribe: https://bit.ly/2ZObyNd
In today’s video, I’m going to explain to you why HSBC and I are breaking up. So if you watch my last video, I described banking with HSBC, like dating the divorce say, and although there were many positives to dating a divorcee like HSPC, eventually I really saw their true colors. So I’m going to get into all of the reasons why me and HSBC are breaking up. So if you are curious, the four reasons why HSBC and I are breaking up and how you can avoid making the same mistakes in your personal banking, then I would watch until the end of this video. Now let’s get into the first reason why HSBC and I are breaking up so late dating any older man. Typically they are very controlling and HSBC was not any different. And if you guys have ever watched girls next door you’ll know that the girls had a really hard time getting out of the mansion whenever they wanted.
That’s basically how I felt with HSBC. Once I put my money in there, it was so hard to move it and I’ll get into the reason later why I decided to move it. But let’s say you wanted to shift some funds here or there, or just even log into your account. You had to press a button on a mobile app that barely exists to get a six digit code and then put it in a computer and then somehow find which window to log in at. So, yeah, basically I had no access to my money in my high yield savings account, and I really felt like I was being pigeonholed in being able to access my money. Okay. Reason number two. So basically HSBC cut me off. I know like a lot of sugar daddies will do this every now and then, and I’m pretty sure they decided to cut me off.
So I got an email earlier this month as if the pandemic and all the writing, wasn’t already hard enough and HSBC. Let me know that my new AP, why for my high yield savings account was going to get down to 1.01. I know 1.01. How can I actually live on that as if my unemployment and my pandemic relief is not already enough. Now I’m only getting 1.01 back on my savings account at out. So that was basically reason. Number two, why decided reason? Number one, that I needed to move my money around HSBC. Like all divorcees are pretty impossible to get out of that control hole. Okay. Reason number three. And I say this in my last video, but the interface of HSBC on their mobile app and their website is so outdated that I can’t get past it. It’s like when you’re dating a really old guy and you’re trying to convince yourself that they’re still really hot.
Like, you know, they’re like that one actor that everyone’s in love with George Clooney. Well, HSBC, you’re not George Clooney and I’m sorry, I just can’t keep looking at your interface every day. Okay. Reason number four is politics. So earlier this month you probably have been keeping up with the news and you know that China and Hong Kong and America are not really getting along so long story short, the CCP Chinese communist party and Hong Kong are not getting along. They’re basically saying that whatever terms they had made previously are no longer going to be valid. Now HSBC decided to take China’s side, which was a little shocking because HSBC is actually originated in Hong Kong. So with that being said, I really can’t stand by a bank that supports CCP. So with that, I’m going to decide that HSBC and I are breaking up, but what’s next for me?
You ask, well, like every basic girl in 2020, I’m going to crawl back to my old ex-boyfriend Marcus by Goldman Sachs because every girl likes going back to an F boy and Marcus is still keeping my APY quite high. So I think I’m going to go back to him. But if you guys have any tips on better banks, that I can get a high return on my savings account because that emergency fund is going to run out eventually the definitely comment below. And if you already watched this far and you haven’t subscribed, go ahead and hit that link below and subscribe to this channel. So you’re notified in the next video where I show you how we’re actually going to shift that money from HSPC to another bank. I love you my coins, and I hope you stand up for yourselves and never seen a bad relationship. Bye.

Your Fundraising Legals: Get Investor Ready (with Anthony Rose, SeedLegals)
Few founders have properly considered what happens once they’ve created their fundraising assets. Once they decide they’re raising equity investment they plough full steam ahead into creating their pitch without even considering what comes next.

FinTech start-up Bitpanda now valued at $4.1 billion after new funding round
Bitpanda co-founders and co-CEOs Eric Demuth and Paul Klanschek join CNBC’s ‘Squawk on the Street’ to discuss the fintech platform’s latest funding round, which puts the startup at a $4.1 billion valuation. For access to live and exclusive video from CNBC subscribe to CNBC PRO: https://cnb.cx/2NGeIvi
Bitpanda, a European cryptocurrency trading platform, has raised $263 million in a fresh round of funding valuing the company at $4.1 billion.
That’s more than three times the $1.2 billion Bitpanda was worth in its last private financing round five months ago. The latest cash injection brings the company’s total raised to nearly $500 million.
The investment was led by Valar Ventures, the venture capital firm co-founded by U.S. tech billionaire Peter Thiel. It’s the third time Valar has backed Bitpanda since its first major funding round, announced in September.
“I don’t like to do fundraising,” Eric Demuth, Bitpanda’s CEO and co-founder, told CNBC. “It’s very time-consuming.”
“When you have partners you have a close connection with, and they have deep pockets, you don’t have to do the whole roadshow,” Demuth said. Valar “wanted to double down and we wanted to stay with them,” he added. “It was quite an easy process.”
British billionaire hedge fund manager Alan Howard and REDO Ventures also invested in Bitpanda’s latest round, along with existing investors LeadBlock Partners and Jump Capital.
What is Bitpanda?
Founded in 2014, Bitpanda is a Vienna-based brokerage firm that lets people buy and sell cryptocurrencies and precious metals. The company also began testing a service this year that lets users trade stocks around the clock.
“By the end of the year, I think you’ll have a really good offering for stocks,” Demuth said.
Bitpanda is one of many online brokers in Europe attracting growing interest from investors, thanks in part to the “meme stock” trading frenzy. Retail traders piled into unloved stocks like GameStop and AMC, taking inspiration from a popular Reddit forum. That boosted trading volumes at digital platforms such as Robinhood.
Bitpanda’s competitors include Revolut, Trade Republic and eToro.
One way the company hopes to differentiate from rivals is by licensing its technology to banks and fintech companies. It declined to name any clients but said several big firms were already implementing the system and will be able offer crypto and stock trading in a matter of months.
Bitpanda makes its money from the spread between what someone is willing to pay for an asset and the price at which that asset is sold. The start-up has been profitable for five years, Demuth said.
Profitability is a rarity in fintech, with many venture-backed companies in the space racking up heavy losses. Revolut, which was last valued at $33 billion, lost £167.8 million ($232.3 million) in 2020, up 57% from a year earlier.
Demuth said a number of fintech companies are raising money at lofty valuations out of “hype” and a “fear of missing out.”
“I’m very skeptical about this,” he said. “Many companies, especially in the fintech area, are purely based on a combination of hype and growth. But the growth is mostly paid, so you have a product that is for free and you are simply buying your customers.”
Bitpanda didn’t provide a breakdown of how much money it makes each year, but said revenues were on track to rise sevenfold in 2021. The platform now has more than 3 million users.
The firm only operates in Europe, with offices in Vienna, Berlin, London, Paris, Barcelona, Milan and Krakow. It plans to use the money to expand in key markets like France, Spain, Italy and Portugal.
