Det er det helt store spørgsmål i dagens afsnit, hvor vi skal i dybden med Crémant de Loire og blive klogere på hvad den mousserende vintype som vinder indpas for første gang i 1975.   For at lave crémant benytter man methode traditionelle, så vinen ligger sur lie, men i Loire bruger man primært chenin blanc, cabernet franc og også chardonnay til at lave crémanten. Andre druesorter må også benyttes i vinene fra Loire - men hvilke?   Hvilke regler findes der for at lave crémant og kan vi tillade os at sammenligne crémant med champagne og hvilken status har crémant i forhold til andre mousserende vine?   Vi skal også høre en lille ferieberetning fra en lytter som har haft en aha-oplevelse i Champagne samt en mail fra en lytter, som også har haft en åbenbaring omkring mousserende vine.

Vandaag bespreken we het boek Geld genoeg, maar niet voor jou van Thomas Bollen. De ondertitel is: Hoe heroveren we de macht over ons geld? Hij werkte korte tijd voor een aantal consultancy organisaties, maar is sinds 2016 werkzaam voor Follow the Money en schrijft daar over geld en woont in de Achterhoek :-) Hij sprak met Martin Wolf, werkte met Karlijn aan het waterwerk van ons geld met Carlijn Kingma en schrijft over de digitale euro. https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomas-bollen-028596b https://www.ftm.eu/author/thomas-bollen Het boek was voor mij waardevol en gaf veel inzicht in wat er in de financiële en geldwereld speelt. Via Heidi Leenaarts had ik al wat verhalen gehoord over de financiële wereld, dat banken geld creëren met een druk op de knop en 97% van het geld circuleert in de financiële wereld en maar 3% in de echte wereld. https://decideforimpact.com/show464-de-nieuwe-economie-in-de-praktijk-heidi-leenaarts/  In het boek wordt dit allemaal uitgelegd in begrijpelijke taal in gesprekken met verschillende mensen in deze wereld die er wel over durven te praten omdat hun baan/inkomen er niet meer vanaf hangt. Wat me opviel, is hoeveel geld er wordt verdiend in deze financiële wereld, zoals bij banken, maar altijd met een vangnet voor de burger. Als het misgaat, grijpt de overheid vaak in om ze te redden, waardoor de echt vermogenden zich verrijken ten koste van de rest van de burgers. Thomas gelooft in de toekomst van de digitale euro die door de centrale banken wordt uitgegeven en gecontroleerd. Dit zou aanzienlijk in de kosten besparen en de risico's verminderen. Maar de financiële wereld heeft een grote lobby-macht en stagneert dit proces. Je krijgt ook een inkijkje in de cryptowereld, waar ik een soort piramidespelgevoel aan heb overgehouden. Daarnaast heb ik een goed gevoel overgehouden aan de digitale euro. Belangrijke bevindingen van het boek zijn dat als je de (financiële) markten de vrije hand geeft, ze uiteindelijk altijd ervoor zorgen dat ze zelf meer verdienen en dat dit ten koste gaat van de burger. Zeker wanneer het geldstelsel geprivatiseerd is, zoals nu. Private banken creëren geld. Banken hebben duidelijke afspraken nodig om te voorkomen dat ze bij een bankrun de banken ten onder dreigen te gaan en dat de overheid dit telkens moet oplossen. Dus hogere ondergrens van hoeveel van het geld dat ze uitgeven ook zelf moeten hebben als onderpand. Het kritische punt is misschien dat het veel is en dat ik soms het overzicht verloor tijdens het lezen. Dit zie je ook terug in het register van namen die Bollen in het boek noemt, het zijn er veel. Voor iedere persoon die met geld werkt, is dit een belangrijk boek om te lezen. Je leert beslist dingen over geld en de financiële wereld die je nog niet wist. Hopelijk gaat dat helpen om deze wereld te transformeren. Als je, zoals ik, druk maakt over inkomen en vermogensongelijkheid, dan ontdek je dat het allemaal nog veel erger is dan je had gedacht. Het boek geeft me ook een wat mistroostig gevoel. Er verandert weinig. Het is een uitgebreid boek met 300 pagina's. De hoofdstukken zijn kort en goed afzonderlijk te lezen. We kregen het van Follow The Money. Dank daarvoor.  Actueel: artikel FD vandaag 5 feb 2026  ‘Verlaag de Europese kapitaaleisen, de banken hebben hun lesje heus wel geleerd' - Politici en toezichthouders in Europa begrijpen onvoldoende dat een sterke economie een sterke financiële sector nodig heeft, zegt president-commissaris Lorenzo Bini Smaghi van Société Générale. Na het lezen van dit boek kijk ik hier anders tegenaan. Inhoud Woord Vooraf Proloog: Wat rekeninghouders zelden weten In het ‘Fort Knox van Europa Wakker worden in The Truman Show De toren van Basel Wij zijn de 99 procent In de ban van schuld De vergeten wetenschap Buitenbeendjes in actie De saaiste bank van Nederland De grote doorbraak De Europese Doomsday Machine De ontdekking vaan digitaal centraalbankgeld Wat het licht niet verdraagt, woekert in de schaduw De bankiers van de cryptowereld Het antwoord is ‘nee' One coin to rule them all Karaktermoord Publiek geld naar private zakken Chantage door de tech-miljardairs ‘Zeg nee tegen CBDC' De radicale keuze Woord Vooraf De opening van het boek gaat gelijk in op de problematiek in de wereld, zoals inkomens- en vermogensongelijkheid, de concentratie van geld en macht en de afbraak van de democratie. Hierover hebben we al vaker gesproken. Maar wat Thomas dan doet, is de connectie leggen met het geldstelsel.  Dat hebben we nog niet eerder besproken, volgens mij. Hij noemt ook het grootste probleem hierin: de financiële geletterdheid die macht geeft en de financiële macht van de sector. Een van de machtigste en best georganiseerde lobby's ter wereld. De macht over ons geld is de afgelopen 40 jaar steeds meer in private handen gekomen. Proloog: Wat rekeninghouders zelden weten Met een aantal sterke voorbeelden in (extreme) situaties ontdek je ineens dat het geld dat op je bankrekening staat niet echt jouw geld is. Dat is het bedrag dat je van de bank tegoed hebt. De bankruns in crisissituaties laten zien dat banken en de overheid je de toegang tot jouw banktegoed kunnen begrenzen of opschorten. Het geld op jouw bankrekening ligt niet in de kluis van de bank. In het ‘Fort Knox van Europa De titel van dit hoofdstuk is wat misleidend. Dit hoofdstuk gaat vooral over wat er allemaal mis is met het geldstelsel Geld is nooit neutraal of natuurlijk. Ze is altijd onderdeel van een complex sociaaleconomisch systeem van schulen, verplichtingen en vertrouwen. Geld is onderdeel van de politieke economie en dus een politiek onderwerp. Publiek (contant) geld van de centrale bank vormt de basislaag van ons geld. Aan cashbetalingen verdient de bank niets. Centrale banken hebben nagelaten om publiek geld naar het digitale tijdperk te updaten. p22 Het verschil tussen privaat en publiek geld is belangrijk om te begrijpen. Het geld op je bankrekening is privaat geld. Het werd door een private bank gecreëerd. De transitie naar digitale banktegoeden (dus al jouw transacties met geld zonder dat er papiergeld aan te pas komt) is een overgang naar privatisering van ons geld en dat brengt risico's met zich mee. Zoals we de afgelopen jaren hebben ervaren. De risico's en kosten om het bancaire systeem overeind te houden worden grotendeels collectief gedragen (bij dreigend faillissement grijpt de overheid in bijv. ABN), terwijl de winsten onder de financiële instellingen en aandeelhouders worden verdeeld. Hoe groot private equity is geworden in 12 jaar: ze lijken alles op te kopen en dragen bij aan het feit dat diensten die we nodig hebben duurder worden en tegelijkertijd de kwaliteit van de diensten slechter wordt. Denk aan kinderdagverblijven, huurwoningen, verzorgingstehuizen, watervoorziening, tandartspraktijken. In private equity zitten mensen die al geld (veel) hebben en vooral bezig zijn om het rendement te vergroten; ze zijn niet geïnteresseerd in het product of dienst zelf. Als het maar rendement oplevert. De democratie dreigt te vervalen tot een dictatuur van het geld. Als afsluiting lees je over $TRUMP, de cryptomunt van Trump, waarmee vooral de familie Trump veel geld heeft verdient. En de macht van Thiel. Wolf: Willen we de democratie redden, dan moeten we het kapitaal repareren. Wakker worden in The Truman Show Uitleg over bankruns en het probleem dat banken veel minder publiek geld in kas hebben. De regels van het kapitalisme worden opzij gezet tijdens de bail-out door de overheid van private banken. Waarbij de mensen met het meeste vermogen als eerste hun geld terugkrijgen. p39 uitleg over rommelhypotheken - hoge afsluitkosten incasseren en het risico op toekomstige wanbetaling niet in je eigen balans opnemen. Sinds de crisis van 2008 staat de overheid garant voor 100.000 privébanktegoeden. Terwijl de banken worden ondersteund door de overheid, keren de managers en de aandeelhouders forse bedragen uit. Ingewikkeld hoofdstuk De toren van Basel p50 het inzicht van Greenspan tijdens de crisis Internationale bankregels Basel III - belangrijk onderdeel financiering met meer eigen vermogen (Basel II - 2%) - Ackerman, CEO Deutsche Bank, en voorzitter IIF wilden de eisen vooral afzwakken. Ze vonden dat zij er het meeste verstand van hadden en het beste de nieuwe regels konden opstellen. Politici vooral buiten de deur houden en burgers bang maken (tabakpropaganda). Eigen vermogen werd uiteindelijk verhoogd naar 3%. Dit betekent dat je als bank je balans met 97 schuld mag financieren. Het doel was een eigen vermogen van 20-30 procent. Anat Admati -  Dit hoofdstuk leest als achterkamertjespolitiek en strategietruc. Alles om ervoor te zorgen dat de macht bij de private banken blijft. Wij zijn de 99 procent De internationale geldhervormingsbeweging.  Kennismaking met De Waal. Hij wilde een eenvoudige methode om onderling te betalen met een link. De bank leent geen geld uit van andere spaarders op het moment dat ze iemand een hypotheek verstrekken; ze creëren daarvoor nieuw geld. Met een druk op de knop. p62 De vraag waarom zo'n belangrijke maatschappelijke functie niet in publieke handen is. Want het geld scheppen kun je doen voor zaken die goed voor de toekomst zijn en die slecht zijn (fossiele brandstoffen stimuleren, private equity). Het winstmotief van de bank gaat boven het publieke belang. p65 Graeber We are the  99 percent en zijn boek Debt. Het kan wel anders, geschiedenis met een ‘debt jubilee'. Koning of keizer die de mensen hun schulden kwijt schold en weer vrij waren. De Waal: het privilege om geld te schappen is misschien wel het machtigste instrument om een samenleving vorm te geven.

An in-depth discussion with serial entrepreneur Andrew Ackerman. As the CEO/Founder of Reach Labs, he shares essential knowledge and steps for small business startups. His book, "The Entrepreneur's Odyssey, is described as "Lean Startup meets The Alchemist."

From losing his entire $25,000 life savings on his first investment to backing over 70 startups, Andrew Ackerman shares proven strategies for evaluating founders, testing assumptions cheaply, and why the best entrepreneurs see deals where others see nothing. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer sits down with Andrew Ackerman, a serial entrepreneur turned early-stage investor and innovation expert. Andrew is currently a strategic advisor and head of Reach Labs at Second Century Ventures, consults on corporate innovation strategies and venture studios, and serves as an adjunct professor of entrepreneurship. He previously served as managing director at DreamIt Adventures, one of the top five accelerator programs in the world. He has invested in over 70 startups and written over 60 published articles for Forbes, Fortune, and other major publications. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: In this episode, you'll discover why Andrew looks for the instinct to hustle for deals rather than focusing on the idea itself, how accelerators fill the gap between friends and family money and proper VC rounds, and why testing assumptions with a five-dollar pack of index cards can save months of development time. Andrew explains the real difference between SAFE notes and convertible notes, what makes lawyers often terrible startup advisors, and the SeatGeek origin story that proves early testing can turn a failing startup into a billion-dollar company. ANDREW'S JOURNEY: Andrew's path started with both grandfathers as entrepreneurs, one running candy shops and the other creating insurance products. Coming out of University of Chicago in the 90s when startups weren't a thing, he chose consulting before realizing the startup world had caught up. His first venture Bunk One provided internet services for summer camps and exited successfully. His second startup taught harder lessons through founder drama and failure. Angel investing came accidentally through a pharma deal he admits he had no business making, but getting lucky early hooked him. Eventually he joined DreamIt Adventures, running their New York office. KEY INSIGHTS: When evaluating founders, Andrew looks for the instinct to hustle. He shared an example of a founder who rented pencils in fifth grade for a nickel a day. Not sold. Rented. That entrepreneurial DNA shows up early and separates successful founders from everyone else. The SeatGeek story proves early testing works. A startup in his accelerator tested conversion rates early instead of waiting, discovered they were completely off, pivoted in seven weeks, and built a billion-dollar company. Lawyers often make terrible startup advisors because their incentive structure is backwards. Billing by the hour doesn't reward speed, and careers focused on avoiding mistakes rather than making deals happen. Perfect for founders thinking about raising capital, anyone curious about how accelerators work, aspiring angel investors wondering how to evaluate founders, and entrepreneurs who want practical frameworks for testing assumptions.

The word “terrorist” wasn't coined on September 11, 2001, but the defining event of the early 21st century ushered it in as the United States' go-to term for demonizing outsiders and dissenters alike. The so-called “war on terror” transformed the way the U.S. wields power at home and abroad, enabling mass surveillance and a crackdown on the right to free speech. It became reflexive for the U.S. to disparage immigrants and protesters as supporters of terrorism.President Donald Trump has embraced this model and manipulated it for his own ends, as author Spencer Ackerman points out. The Trump administration often peddles spurious accusations of terrorism against the targets of its immigration raids.“There's nothing about any of their action that's remotely anything at all like terrorism,” Ackerman says. “But that is the fire in which ICE, CBP, and the Department of Homeland Security was forged. You are going to find this in its DNA.”This week on the Intercept Briefing, host Jordan Uhl speaks with Ackerman, a leading expert on the concept of terrorism and its weaponization by the state. Ackerman's 2021 book, “Reign of Terror, How the 9/11 Era Destabilized America and Produced Trump,” traces the legal and cultural evolution of the last 25 years, and how the boomerang has come back home.“Before 9/11, not only was there no ICE, there wasn't really much in the way of a robust internal mechanism for finding and deporting people who were in the country illegally. When it did exist, it was for people who were serious criminals, traffickers, and so on,” says Ackerman. Now, he says, the contemporary terrorism paradigm has transformed immigration enforcement into something “operating like a death squad.”“What we are seeing on the streets of Minneapolis is what ICE has done to the undocumented for a very long time,” he says. “And now we're seeing this happen to white people on the streets of Minneapolis for little more than filming ICE.” With the recent killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, “I worry that a tremendous amount of our political system is geared toward either, on the Republican side, rationalizing it, justifying it, or on the Democratic side, pretending as if this is some kind of abuse that can be exceptionalized, rather than something that has to do with this 25-year history of coalescing immigration enforcement in the context of counterterrorism.”As Democrats in Congress struggle to leverage DHS funding for changes to ICE policy — like a ban on face masks for ICE agents, an idea on which they've already softened — Ackerman says the parallels with the early 2000s are clear.“We can't move in reformist directions when the thing talked about being reformed laughs at killing Americans,” advises Ackerman. “Reformist politics under two Democratic administrations got us to where we are now. These are accommodationist politics, and the thing being accommodated wants to kill you.”Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.
