À propos de ce contenu audio

Empire, Gold, and Credit is a financial history and personal finance podcast exploring how money built empires, destroyed nations, and still controls the modern world.

From ancient gold and silver to paper currency, banking, debt, and digital money, this podcast tells the long story of how financial systems shaped civilization—and why the same patterns still govern your paycheck, savings, and future today.

Each episode blends financial history, personal finance, behavioral economics, and the psychology of money to explain:

  • How empires rose and fell through money and debt
  • Why gold, silver, and currency became tools of power
  • How banking, credit, and interest transformed societies
  • Why inflation, bubbles, and financial crises keep repeating
  • How governments and central banks gained control of money
  • How fear, greed, and ambition shaped financial systems
  • How ancient money systems still influence modern finance

This isn’t a stock market podcast or a motivational finance show. It’s a story-driven exploration of the history of money, how the financial system works, and understanding the forces behind wealth, poverty, power, and collapse.

If you’re interested in financial history, personal finance, how money works, banking history, credit and debt, inflation, investing, behavioral finance, and learning how money shaped the fate of civilizations—and still shapes yours—this podcast is for you.

Empire, Gold, and Credit Power is built on money. History proves it.
