Next Episode of Billion Dollar Deals and How They Changed Your World is
not planed. TV Show was canceled.
The story of how our world was changed by people we have never heard of, transforming our lives without us realising it had even happened.
A look at the deals that have transformed the way we talk about and treat mental health.
In this episode, Jacques explores the deals which have shaped the way we understand money. From the invention of Paypal in the nineties to the smartphone app economy that followed ten years later, this programme tells the story of how tech giants brought about the digital payment revolution and formulated a plan to one day kill cash.
But is this new world of digital, hyper-fast spending in our interests? And what is really going on behind the scenes?
How did we go from clocking on and off to checking our work email in the middle of the night and working four jobs simultaneously? How did work go from being what we do to who we are?
From the creation of shared values in the workplace in the 1980s to the deal that ushered in inflated executive pay and zero job security, Jacques reveals how key decisions over the past decades have revolutionised the workplace and our perception of work itself. He also looks at automation in the workplace. But will the age of the robot make our working lives easier or make us redundant as a species?
Looks like something went completely wrong!
But don't worry - it can happen to the best of us,
- and it just happened to you.
