Über diesen Titel

Wealth is not what you have; it’s what you keep.In this deep dive, Arie van Gemeren explores the paradoxical collapse of the Spanish Empire—the wealthiest nation on Earth that somehow managed to go bankrupt five times in 50 years.We break down why an endless supply of silver and gold actually destroyed the Spanish economy and what modern investors can learn about inflation, currency debasement, and the "Dutch Disease."What you’ll learn in this video:The Resource Curse: Why more money often leads to less productivity.Default Logic: How King Philip II used bankruptcy as a "reset button" (and destroyed his credit).The Fugger Failure: Lessons from the bankers who financed an empire and lost everything.Monetary Illusion: Distinguishing between "currency" and "actual value."Portfolio Resilience: How to build a "Spanish-proof" strategy in 2026.
