Thank you for holding on for a whole week from the end of reading the last episode on delayed gratification, so you have my undiluted gratitude! In line with my promise to you when I ended that piece, let’s take that con
Show notes
I mentioned the concept of delayed gratification in passing back in Episode 010 while talking about certain elements alongside the phenomenon of trade. Let’s not delay any more! We haven’t met our fictional friends in a
Show notes
So, much like with the previous episode, I have indeed written earlier about standardization, but as I said there in the context of innovation. Here we take a slightly different angle. Once more, that older innovation-se
Show notes
In fact, I’ve previously written about specialization, in the context of exploring how innovation accelerated at a crucial historical juncture - TecC 43. However, let’s look at this from the perspective of our story here
Show notes
I trust we’ve seen so far that the story of money involves a lot more than just cash and coins. In this spirit we’ve dug into some of the core concepts that make up the foundation of economics, today let’s explore one mo
Show notes
Last time, I concluded on the suggestion that economics is a lot more ubiquitous than we tend to think. Let’s dig deeper into the fundamental question of why we even need economics at all. Let’s in fact take this forward
Show notes
This series is already ten articles old! I’ve covered some of the most fundamental concepts so far, some that might have seen too basic to bother. But hopefully I’ve shed some new light. Let’s take stock and consolidate.
Show notes
Yes, opportunity cost is indeed one of those strange things, it sounds like one of those classic terms in economics one would prepare to explain in a job interview or one would hear from one of those experts in a panel m
Show notes
In the previous episode we discussed the concept of interest, the price of lending money, I also made this huge claim that much of the modern economic engine and elements of our prosperity hinges on the core concept. Let
Show notes
What if I told you of the grandson of a peasant writing a letter in 1500s Europe to the most powerful man in the continent if not the world, Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire (modern-day Germany and a bit more), King of S
Show notes
Last time we saw how the seemingly simple concept of ‘risk’ can have profound consequences in the story of money and our life in general. This time let’s explore another underrated idea in relation to money: time. Previo
Show notes
In writing about the march of innovation and progress from my first-principles multi-disciplinary perspective, I’ve often sought to connect seemingly mundane developments with much bigger even universal concepts. Today I
Show notes
We all have a sense of what risk is, alongside our notions of whether it’s good or bad, and how to deal with it. We’ve also seen the intersection of risk and money, but let’s dig a bit deeper, for risk and money dance a
Show notes
The last four episodes released have served as a mini-series, or a tetralogy, deviating chronologically to lay the foundation for some important aspects of earlier innovation still of relevance to us. Let’s now come back
Show notes
So far, in a series about money, I’ve never once mentioned the c-word. More than the terms ‘money’ or ‘profit’, ‘capital’ is perhaps the most loaded one in the field. But let’s look at what capital really is. Now for an
Show notes
This is the fourth of a thread in our study of the understanding how knowledge itself works. We started with the very questions of reality and how we can know anything. We explored the fight between competing approaches
Show notes
Having so far covered the very basic concepts of money, the market and the pricing mechanism, in the previous episode I first properly introduced the word economy, with its literal origins as ‘household management’, whic
Show notes
In the previous two episodes, the first in this new series, we first gathered some money and then went to the market. Let’s now look at a key component of all the transactions that take place there: price. Again, the con
Show notes
This is still a thread on the study of the science of knowledge in continuation with the last couple of episodes released. Previously in Episode 33C1 and Episode 33C2 we covered two towering titans in this area, both as
Show notes
In the introduction to the series, I hinted at the word ‘money’ evoking strange emotions - and now, the word ‘market’ can also do the same, as it’s wound up in a whole lot of connotations and convolutions. But once more,
