   Generally a good video. I do think it could have been cleaned up for educational purposes by focusing on a lesson at a time. For example, this is trying to teach “borrow at X% and lend at X+Y%”. There’s no reason to draw in the Reserve to explain that, which only slows and dilutes the lesson.

   Teach savings = lending first, then complicate it next.

   Why would we want a more simple view? I believe what we want is correct and relevant information and we want as much of it as our teacher is able to provide. If you would please provide us with some examples of incorrect, irrelevant, or relevant but unstated information with proof of this fact, I believe we would all be appreciative.

   really, those videos got me interested in the subject but thus far these videos seem to be even more thorough, given our common interest i advise you watch Dr. Martenson’s crash course, it expands on many semi-related issues untouched by money as debt

   There are much better videos out there explaining how banking works. I would recommend searching on ‘Money as Debt’ and ‘Money as Debt II”

   This is the worst video I have ever seen. Sorry. There is a much simpler view of the banking system as a whole an as an educator of the public, I am shocked at what you have taught people. You sound like a professor with little understanding.

    Why are 86% of the NY Fed’s MBS purchases happening during option expiry weeks since July 2009?, there has only been one options expiration week whereby the Fed did not buy at least $60 billion of MBS during the options expiration week itself, providing instant and meaningful liquidity during options expiration weeks that have historically had an upward bias anyway!… and talk about dumping (monetizing) WallStreet’s debts on the American tax paying public. Free Market,.???

    oh guess what i am Japanese but i appreciate people who take made such open commitments and not stupid trolls like you. Why not tally the numbers from the comments and tell me how rational you sound amongst the rest

13. TaffyAlpha on August 22nd, 2010 6:27 pm

    I can’t help but laugh at your comment which is full of such big words used in incorrect ways that I can’t help but think you pulled those words straight out of a thesaurus. How old are you 14 - 18?

14. donkekeli on August 26th, 2010 5:34 am

    @TaffyAlpha you are also a clinical moron of the highest order. This guy is giving to the community what your silly puerile vacuous brain cant offer but critique in a very infantile way

15. DulciJubilo on August 26th, 2010 5:59 am

    Still, this is a good basic precis. Thanks!

16. DulciJubilo on August 27th, 2010 9:34 pm

    What about equity partnerships, not lending????

17. DulciJubilo on August 29th, 2010 3:24 pm

    And whatever the project is, the bank had better get the risl profile right…..

18. DulciJubilo on August 30th, 2010 8:57 pm

    Really nice that this is a real project, creating some fundamental tangible value, rather than playing around with derivatives…..

19. DulciJubilo on September 2nd, 2010 11:23 pm

    Absolutely you can’t print gold. And therein is all the difference….

20. biagiolembo on September 3rd, 2010 5:14 am

    sorry,
    what happens to the cash when it is used to pay back loans?? does the bank keep that cash for itself??

21. sashaville on September 3rd, 2010 6:14 pm

    I agree Mark,
    fantastic videos,
    thank you for your time making these videos. they certianly make my life easier trying to understand these topics.

    cheers

    Im a gold bug, and obviously I disagree with Khans dismisal of gold too, but he is not an idiot. If your intrested in math or capital markets he is the best teacher I have ever seen.

    Your open minded enough to be into gold, be open minded enough to accept that other people are not.

23. TaffyAlpha on September 7th, 2010 7:31 pm

    WOW! what a way to prove your point! Name calling like a five year old. I’m sure you represent the Libertarian Community very well!

    Hello khanacademy

    I have to admit I am very impressed with the quality of your videos here on youtube.

    They are certainly a pleasure to watch as I do enjoy them.

    I am sure there is many others who also feel the same about your videos.
