9:46 Median does not take into account the top 1%. It doesn’t even take into account the top 49% or bottom 49%. You’re thinking of the mean average, which takes into account everyone, but the median is literally just the one average person. The reason it’s higher than you’d expect is because it’s wealth, not salary, and salary accumulates. That wealth includes the value of the average person’s house and car
Almost agree, not fully, median takes into account all values but doesn't take the mean average. The median is just the middle value in a series of ordered values
@@larstimmer Ye, so if you change any of the other values to be higher or lower than they already are, relative to the median, such as by making the top 1% extortionately bigger, it has no effect on the median. So, you can say the median does not take into account those values
Great video 😍 Actually Median Wealth doesn't get distorted by the richest 1% like Average Wealth would, because median wealth means that exactly half of the population has more wealth and half has less ❤
Additionally wealth does not mean yearly income like Jack said. It was probably meant as net worth which is the difference between the value of their assets and liabilities. E.g. how much money you'd have if you sell everything you own and pay off all your debt.
9:52 Median wealth is a better measurement than average exactly bcoz the top 1% skew the national income by tons. With median, you can conclude that half of the population earns less than said number (and the other half earns more than that.)
6:24 No, Brazil does not mean “trees that produce red-like ember”! Let me explain. When the Portuguese arrived, they found a tree that produced an ember-red dye, so they called the tree "pau-brasil", the word "brasil" comes from "brasa", which is "ember" in Portuguese. So, the true meaning of Brazil is “red like an ember”. And why is the country called Brazil? It's simple, Brazilwood was the main asset exploited by the Portuguese during the first years of exploration, these trees made a lot of profit for them. They cut these trees almost to extinction. So it was very important and that's why the country was named Brazil.
@@strandedinparadise8202 When the Portuguese gave the name "Brazil" to the country, which was still a colony, Brazilwood was still abundant and was the main reason for Portuguese trips to such a distant land. Furthermore, Brazilwood still exists. However, it's a tree considered endangered, and therefore it's more difficult to find in nature today. In front of the elementary school where I studied there were several of these trees, but they were planted.
What makes Brazilian trees so good? I imagine there where lot's of trees available in Europe. Doesn't feel worth it to take the heavy wood all the way to Europe
@@baukewijnsma Pau-Brazil/Brazilwood was a very valuable and important wood because it was possible to produce a red dye that was quite rare in Europe, in addition to being a very noble wood that was used to produce luxury objects (such as furniture and musical instruments).
@@baukewijnsmaI guess because they needed wood in Brazil, simply ? In addition to the red dye interest, they were going to cut wood on the spot to build infrastructure, make room for plantations… etc. I think most of the wood was not meant to be exported.
9:51 Median actually does not get skewed by the extremes, as opposed to a mean, which does. Also it is "Wealth" per adult, not "Yearly Income" per adult
9:39 you are mixing up average and median, they are not the same. What you are talking about is the average, but median means that if you had a list of all the people, its the person that would be in the middle of that list. So basically, there are the same amount of people that have more money than that person and people that have less money than that person. Im also pretty sure it isnt about the income, its the total net worth of that person (which includes the value of things they own, like a house or car)
I lived in the Amazonia and never saw a big snake but still carried the fear of anacondas to Spain. People loved to tell tales of anacondas eating persons and animals. The sad thing it's that caiman do eat children.
California was named after a Spanish novel about a fictional island. When the Spanish explorers first discovered Baja California, they thought it was an island and named it after the island in the book.
8:47, I have lived in 30 states. And I will tell you, almost every one I've lived in is wrong. While I can see where they were going off of, there is just not always accurate. Maine was either based off of a shortening of "Mainland" (often called "the maine" in that time period) or the French province of Maine (it is contested) Michigan is the Algonquin word for "big water" though, there is the great lake, Lake Michigan. Idaho is "gem of the mountains" from a anglicization of a Lakota Sioux word meaning that. Illinois is "men" or "warrior" from the native Illini peoples. Kentucky comes either from the Iroquois word meaning "land of tomorrow" or another Iroquois word meaning "meadowland" Wyoming comes from the Lenni Lenape word meaning "end of plains" notably stemming from the name of the Wyoming Valley in Pennsylvania. I can go on but I get a character limit. But a simple Google search can really clear a lot of these up and I'm disappointed to say the least.
6:08 Even though Germany is a football country, it was a pretty big thing that we won in basketball. I didn't know we were world champions in field hockey
5:58 Fun fact, South Africa won the Rugby World cup two times in a row and currently hold the record for most world cup wins. One could say that is is fairly popular there 👀😂
As a South African I am surprised that Jack didn’t know rugby was a big sport since our team, the Springboks, have won the Rugby World Cup 4 times and won every final they played in
9:02 Jack as a Floridian i know i'm 7 months late but i believe its called land of flowers because the founder "ponce de leon" named it after a flower he found while exploring (correct me if i'm wrong"
These are some off-the-wall topics for dreams! Where's the being able to fly, being at school naked, being in a familiar place but you find a door to a room you never knew, or autofellatio or...??
My most common dream is a nightmare about a random german tv show character from my childhood. I think my first ever nightmare had that character in it and that's why he kept popping up. I haven't had a nightmare and not many dreams in years though tbh
8:53 Oklahoma is called “red people” because it used to be called “Indian Territory.” It was a place where they forced indigenous tribes to relocate when the colonizers came. Basically it’s a kinda racist name towards natives
POV you accidentally click the "go to channel" button and click back and then it plays an ad and its un-skippable so you have to sit there like a lemon watching an advert for Surf Laundry Detergent and then it plays the video but it goes to the start and you forward it to where you were and then Jack says "and on that note we'll end the video here!". That just happened to me. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
Another country like Ireland. But not actually Ireland. If it's winners of the rugby world cup, then the record is South Africa 4, New Zealand 3, Australia 2, England 1.
10:01 It's because they're all higher, (the areas that will still be above a 500 metre higher sea level, I don't know how else you might read that sentence :)). Thinking about it, it should actually be the other way around as they're closest to the flying thing to be able to identify it as it's up to 500 metres further away from everyone else :)
The most common nightmare I get is the one where I'm falling on my bed from above clouds towards the ground. I wake up as soon as I am about to hit the ground.
For that last map, it's light pollution. I live in Idaho and you can see a lot in the night sky here even just a few miles out of the mid size cities (at least by our standards). I used to live in Texas and you maybe can see the Orion and Ursa Major/Minor constellations if you're lucky, but that's it for the majority of Texas.
(0:15) As a person from Sweden, never had a dream about teeth falling out. I might have had it once and forgot about it, but you said you have it once a month. That's a huge difference. Still might be true for Sweden in general though.
The reason why The Roman Empire controlled more of Greece and Turkey than Italy is because Italy and Rome had fallen after the fall of the Western Roman Empire. However, the eastern part of the Empire (which was the Byzantine Empire) largely controlled Greece and Turkey and had controlled them for about 500 years longer the Italy. Fun Fact: The Capital of the Roman Empire was not always Rome; the Byzantine Empire’s Capital was actually in modern day Istanbul.
