In the 1600s, the Dutch East India Company employed numerous ships to trade goods around the world. In order to fund their trips, the company turned to private citizens to invest money to support trips in exchange for a share of the profits. In doing so, they unwittingly invented the world's very first stock market. So how do companies and investors utilize the marketplace today? Oliver Elfenbaum explains.

*Everything here in the video is actually real and quite easy to do , but the real hassle comes in finding the right person for it*
Your replies is filled with people/bots promoting that site XD
Great video. I started watching your videos last year as a beginner and it’s a great gratitude for now l understand that Bitcoin is more than buying and selling before giving market a trial. I was able to make $43,000 with a capital of $9,000 trading with an legit guidance who guided me through out.
This I most say, If only you know what the future says, you’ll know that indeed crypto currency is the future, investing into it now will be the wisest thing to do. Hold!!! And you’ll thanks yourself
That’s right and well said with my own point of reviews I think she’s extremely brilliant and lucrative
With all this said I see this stuff as fast rising and if you are lucky to have a good broker then I believe you have absolutely nothing to worry about because you are in for a finicial upliftment
Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. The stock market has plenty of opportunities to earn a decent payouts, with the right skills and proper understanding of how the market works.
But I don’t know why people remain poor due to ignorance

I was part of an experimental program in jr. high where we had classes that taught us about understanding taxes, how credit worked, how to manage bank accounts and investing, and even things like interacting with the local government and contacting our representatives. Sadly, for whatever reason, the experiment ended after a few years and was never integrated into the normal curriculum. I had things on my criminal record that I was never convicted of yet they were there. How embarrassing? With the help and expertise of Vcorpinvest🟡com I had them cleared off my record in no time, they’re the best I recommend even for investmnts
NO ONE DOES IT BETTER THAN VCORPINVEST🟠COM THEY DELIVERED AT THE SPECULATED TIME AND ACCURATE DELIVERY. GOD BLESS YOU
This was the best information that I have EVER come across. As a Financial Advisor I am always looking for people to support clients that have these issues and can explain what is going on without them “wasting” money with no results. I will definitely support this recommendation Vcorpinvest🟡com to all of my clients when I see they have a credit issue. I have been hood winked by so many companies and people in this line of business and I am excited that theyre a team of integrity to actually help people

When it comes to the world of investing,most people don’t know where to start. Fortunately, great investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance.
80 comments lol,Scam scam scam
Scam scam that was what I was saying before I was linked to her now I can proudly say I recover my capital, I really appreciate expert Kathy for helping me out.
She is genuine, a lot of people who don’t know her or those that haven’t traded with her would say what ever they like but the honest truth is that she has helped me and many more people than i can count and that has to stand for something.
Investment has been the only gap differentiating the poor from the rich.
@Sharon Dickson I totally agree with you but.you can get more than that with stocks and crypto currency

*Their firm is absolutely outstanding! He mentioned that I would start seeing progress within 30 days and that is absolutely true. I have to admit I was a little skeptical at first,but after seeing what you were able to do with my credit after only a few months, it is very reassuring. Each time I’ve had a question I’ve been answered in a business day. I would sincerely say that Vcorpinvest🪐com conducted business in the utmost professional manner.*

I don’t consider renting passive income unless you have professional property management. Most people who rent don’t count their time and effort needed just to make a tiny return on their massive investment. For example, you invest $599,000 to buy a second home and rent it out for $3000 a month. Let assume you are cash flow positive on the property and you make $1000 a month or $12,000 a year. What would your annualized return be? 2 percent on the entire amount. Now, you can argue that your return is much higher since you only put down $120,000 on the property. However, you are on the hook for the full $600k regardless of what the future FMV of the house is. Furthermore, people assume that their home will always appreciate in value however, this is a false assumption you can make. In the best case, you will gain some capital appreciation thanks to the central bank increasing the money supply, however, if inflation heats up, you can see your property actually start to lose money in real terms. This is because there is an inverse relationship between housing and nominal interest rates. The central bank will attempt to slow down inflation with higher interest rates and curb lending. We haven’t seen inflation in a big way but we can see all the massive stimulus money that the government is pumping turn into inflation while taxes will be hiked to pay for all the COVID spending, your best choice is to look into VCORPINVEST Its more profitable

*Interesting consideration, have to consider digital land probably won’t function like physical land obviously but I see application. The issue right now is no one can foresee where this space is heading. Metaverse is an obvious choice in purchasing land as it’s backed by FB but when I bought my VR headset a lot of people didn’t want to have any association with FB like having to create an account to access their VR profile. I think if fears of future pandemics persist people will be more willing to stay home and interact on VR for shopping and social events, not to mention viewing events in other countries without the costs of flying, etc. There’s a lot of potential and opportunity to integrate with cryptocurrency when you deal with the right source like VCORPINVEST but there’s probably a long way until a platform exists for it.*
