Podcast 3

Today, I listened to a podcast „Who wants to be a billionaire?”.
It was about people who are already billionaires and they discussed a problem of unfair division of money in the world. 
During last years number of billionaires have hugely grown but so did a number of extremely poor people. Many politicians propose to introduce higher taxes from the biggest fortunes to decrease social inequalities (f.e. to found the national health care system or a good education). . Some of them are even radical in their statements, saying that „nobody should be a bilionaire”. In their opinion, everyone should live equally and wealthy.
I don't have a clear opinion about this issue because my economic's knowledge is not big enough to form it. These rich people worked hard for their fortunes but letting social inequalities grow can cause many problems in the future.

What does it mean to be a "real man" in XXI century?

Although it's XXI century being a man still has two definitions. First, is really old. This is definition for people who think that "real man" has to be in shape, always working or with his friends. He can be mean to women, just because he's a man.  Second, is more modern and means respecting woman, being neat and helpful.  This is so much more true, luckily more people believe in it now.

Second podcast topic I heard today was a world of fake Instagram followers, comments and likes. Podcast called „Fake me an influencer” explained how does Instagram world really works. The first thing, which shoked me was an information that 20-30% of Instagram celebrities buy their likes. Some of them even create fake ecounts, only to gain more followers and seem more popular than actually are. There's a machine, made to give people these fake likes, comments, followers in just few seconds. I'm very surprised how small amount of time and how low effort we need to become „famous” on social media. Also, for certain people it's a full time job to sell these likes! What I'll remember from this video is to not always believe numbers on my screen. Someone could buy them for just a few dollars.

It's quite common to go to sleep lately. Maybe even more of us do that than don't. We know what we should do- everyone tells us from our childhood. But we still don't go to sleep early. It can be caused by many obligations that we have or society treating long sleep as something bad. For me, sleeping shortly and going to bed lately became kind of indication of working hard. I can be wrong but I noticed we started caring much more about a feeling of success than about our health and mood during the day. And even if I know a few poeple living in a different way, for most of us changing bad sleeping habits is only a good plan for the future.
