The country did this at the same time as its European neighbours have been successfully experimenting with shorter four-day work weeks, but the Greek government has insisted that this new change is the key to tuning its economy around by simply working harder than everyone else. It’s a bold strategy, and for the sake of working conditions everywhere we better hope it doesn’t work… unfortunately, it just might… It’s very easy for Greek workers to find jobs that pay better in other countries because as a member of the European Union they are free to reside and work across borders with very few restrictions. In order to correct for this loss of manpower the government has decided to introduce a six-day work week to make up for all the workers who have left the country and to support all the elderly people who can no longer support themselves. By raw arithmetic their logic makes sense… kind of… Output is the hourly productivity of a worker multiplied by how many hours they work. If Greece has fewer workers, it can increase its output by just getting those who are left to work even longer and harder. Instead of magically creating high paying jobs like promised, what this new law is really about is squeezing the most out of workers on the other end of the pay scale. Retail, transport, construction and hospitality are jobs where companies just need someone behind a counter or on the tools for as many hours of operation as possible to serve customers periodically. A large share of what’s left of the Greek workforce are in these types of roles, and businesses are ALREADY demanding a lot of extra hours from their employees. It won’t make workers work harder, it won’t create high paying jobs, it won’t improve productivity, it will drive away what few young workers the country has left, it will lower hourly wages and create terrible working conditions for the whole country. It’s all around a terrible policy, but unfortunately, it’s not just Greece doing this. So it’s time to learn How Money Works to find out why the six day work week might be catching on… everywhere… Follow to learn How Money Works.

Why Do Family Fortunes Disappear? - How Money WorksSign up for my newsletter https://compoundeddaily.com 👈John D Rockefeller was the richest American to ever live, as well as being the founding member of the three-comma club as the worlds first billionaire.At the height of his fortune a few years before his death he was worth an estimated 1 billion dollars which may not sound like much compared to today's tech bro’s, but this was back in a time where the USA’s annual GDP was only 39.1 billion dollars.This meant that his fortune was 3% of America’s GDP. Adjusted for inflation to 2020 dollars this would give ol John D here a fortune of 450 billion dollars. Or more than Elon, Bill, and Jeff combined.But where is this fortune today?Of course John himself died almost a century ago but if there was any fortune that was going to indefinitely set up future generations surely it would be this one right?The same goes for most of these historic moguls, the fortunes of everybody from carnage, to the medici have more or less faded into total obscurity, outside of maybe a few names plastered on random buildings… (buildings that they don’t even own mind you)…Now you might think you already know the answer, oh these fortunes get split up amongst children and then children’s children and then children’s children’s children until it was spread so thin amongst latter generations that it became almost totally irrelevant.But that’s not entirely true… What’s more is that the real reason for the fall of these financial empires can tell us a lot about how money works as it has been passed down through generations and history.#Wealth #Finance #HowMoneyWorksFollow to learn How Money Works.Find How Money Works on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HowMoneyWorksDisclaimer: This podcast is an independently produced audio adaptation of content originally created by How Money Works.
