  • The Myth of the Self-Made Millionaire
    2024/09/15

    In this episode of Only Business, we dismantle the myth of the "self-made millionaire" and expose the invisible forces that often drive success. It’s not just about hard work—it’s about who you know and the networks you can access. We dive into how social capital, generational wealth, and venture capital disparities shape the paths of many successful entrepreneurs, while leaving others locked out of opportunity. With fewer than 3% of venture capital dollars going to Black and Latino founders and 70% of jobs being filled through personal connections, the system is far from a meritocracy. Join us as we challenge the narrative of self-reliance, reveal the unseen advantages behind many success stories, and offer insights on how to build and leverage your own network in a world where access is everything.

  • Whose Fault Is It If You’re Poor?
    2024/09/01

    1. Debunking the Myth: We kick off the episode by dissecting the popular belief that hard work guarantees financial success, exposing the structural realities of capitalism that often prevent this from being true.

    2. The Business Cycle and Its Impact: Explore how the cyclical nature of capitalism ensures that wealth is concentrated at the top while leaving many vulnerable to economic downturns, using real-world examples from the 2008 financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic.

    3. Understanding Exploitation: Delve into the concept of exploitation as a core component of capitalism, where profit is generated by undervaluing labor. We look at the garment industry and low-wage jobs in the U.S. as case studies.

    4. The Reserve Army of Labor: Learn about the ‘Reserve Army of Labor’ and how the gig economy exemplifies this concept, keeping wages low and workers insecure to maintain capitalist profits.

    5. The False Narrative of Laziness: We challenge the damaging stereotype that poverty is the result of laziness, exploring the historical roots of this narrative and its role in justifying economic inequality.

    6. The Inevitable Presence of Poverty: Finally, we discuss why poverty is not just a byproduct but a necessary condition of capitalism, and why structural changes, not just individual effort, are needed to address this issue.

    Tune in for an eye-opening exploration of the forces shaping our economic landscape and how they impact all of us.
