There's a lot of focus and attention on billionaires nowadays (both good and bad), but one name from The Gilded Age often gets overlooked: Hetty Green.Called "The Queen of Wall Street" to her face, and "The Witch of Wall Street" behind her back, Hetty built a fortune at a time when investing in stocks and shares was not something women were encouraged to do.Her ability to generate and maintain wealth was so impressive, she even lent money to the city of New York to keep it afloat during difficult times.Let's dive into her life and incredible career and fascinating life of America's Richest Woman!https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiotshttps://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiotsArtist: Sarah Cheyhttps://www.fiverr.com/sarahcheyAnimation: Daniel Wilsonhttps://www.instagram.com/wilson_the_wilson/Music: Andrew Wilsonhttps://www.instagram.com/andrews_electric_sheepWant to create live streams like this?

There is one company that is so synonymous with the 1990s that it has been used as a visual cue for the era in virtually every nostalgia-tinged movie and TV show since it went out of business: Blockbuster Video.But, despite being a titan of industry and THE go-to store in its niche, the company's demise was as rapid and embarrassing as the brand was iconic.Wasteful spending, a reluctance to innovate, and paying top executives tens of millions of dollars when the company was struggling to turn a profit, were just some of the many stupid decisions the company had already made by the time it made what many experts consider to be the most catastrophic decision in corporate history: Blockbuster turned down the opportunity to buy Netflix for just $50 million.Stick around to learn more about one of the most ridiculous corporate downfalls ever.https://www.patreon.com/HistorysGreatestIdiotshttps://www.instagram.com/historysgreatestidiotsArtist: Sarah Cheyhttps://www.fiverr.com/sarahcheyAnimation: Daniel Wilsonhttps://www.instagram.com/wilson_the_wilson/Music: Andrew Wilsonhttps://www.instagram.com/andrews_electric_sheepWant to create live streams like this?

There are a lot of people that have become famous as a result of their time in wars, but none were as singularly determined to be at the front of every single war quite as much as 'The Unkillable Soldier'.Adrian Carton De Wiart fought in 3 major wars, was injured dozens of times, and lost limbs, appendages, and even an eye.

Paul Waugh, Lighthouse's leader, describes himself as "a Christian, founder and CEO of Lighthouse Global, helping people achieve their God-given potential."
