    Only show one woke side of the story

    Not a real analysis - just show one side of the story.

    Some parts are interesting - however quite woke. If you're already woke you'll lap it up.

    It goes great lenghts to avoid actually explaining money

    I expected to hear about fractional reserve banking, or no reserve banking, as it works now in the US. I've expected to hear how dollar has lost its backing in gold. I am disappointed. Not really much worth watching here.

    Money Explained. Does not explain money.

    I was expecting an explanation of money. How its created, how it affects society, how interest works. You know, explaining money. Instead you get neoliberal garbage.

    Very biased

    I'm fairly progressiv, or at least moderate. I watched a single episode with my spouse hoping that it would fill in some missing pieces that we haven't learned. It was super biased about the need for progressive policies to support retirement. It didn't actually teach us anything about retirement. I don't recommend.

    Well worth a watch.

    The information contained in this short documentary series is accurate and everyone should watch. Basic stuff but nonetheless good to know in this credit driven society. Also full of great advice.

    The only people who dislike these types of documentaries are those who thrive in a capitalist society and derive their income from the misery of others.
