Theorists, what is McDonald's selling? The answer seems obvious - fast food! Most of us have partaken in their Big Mac burgers, fries, and other staples of the golden arches. Yet, that may be a big ol' LIE! That's right, Ronald McDonald may not be a clown selling some of our favorite indulgent quick serve foods. In fact, McDonald's may be in a completely different business all together. What is that business? You'll have to watch to find out!

    How is working at McDonald's like being an archaeologist in Athens? You end up smelling like ancient grease.
  • @KainaX122
    “I have to sell my McSoul to the company?!?” Me: “Well that seemed obvious”
  • @Pheminon1
    I'm an accountant and I'm GENUINELY surprised how accurate and well researched this is. Besides a few tiny mistakes here and there with semantics, you were spot on. Good job I can't finish the video, though cause it makes me feel like I'm doing my intermediate accounting class again lol. Giving me PTSD over here
  • @thenexithero02
    The fact you owe your McSoul to McDonalds implies it's already theirs since it's got the Mc in front of it, and they've just been waiting to strike all this time. McDonalds is inevitable

    Mom: GET OUT OF YOUR ROOM AND GET A GIRLFRIEND Me: SHUT UP MOM I'M LEARNING ECONOMICS
  • @TetaGama
    Use this quote somewhere: "McDonald's is a real estate company that rents out buildings and makes them sell burgers so they can pay the rent"
  • The McDonald's brothers would be turning in their graves if they saw the 'efficiency' that's implemented in a modern McDonald's. Takes 20+ minutes to get your food 😂
  • @Gabowsk
    So, what did you learn today? That McDonald's is a real estate company. What did it cost? Learning Taxes.
  • @Joeseph_Mamamoa
    When a theory teaches more than a school. I had to learn this AFTER having a business for 3 years, I wish this was a video way sooner, it would have saved me a lot of tax research
  • @Wifies
    Yeah and next you're gonna tell me that Panera isn't a bread like OK Matpat this is getting farfetched
  • @sapphicsandals
    Ive learned more about taxes in this episode then my 16 years of schooling 🤣
  • It feels unreal being able to consume these refined and select collections of knowledge you beautifully present to us, totally free of cost. Thank you so much Matpat and everyone else behind this, your generous souls will be blessed greatly!

  • @HolyKhaaaaan
    This is somewhat similar to how Little Caesars makes their money. They can afford to sell crappy pizza at a low price because they are really in the food distribution business. If such a video doesn't already exist, I should love to see such a video on how Little Caesars works!
  • @Moonstar79
    Everyone's gangsta until Ireland decides they're also a bakery with that bread
  • @PikaPikaLOL
    After that Illuminati joke, I’m convinced his next channel will be “Conspiracy Theory” But that’s just a theory, a CONSPIRACY THEORY
  • I wanted to say, thank you so much for teaching us! I've watched your channels every once in a while since 2014, and it feels like home when I come back. I really dig history and science, so this episode (and this channel) are really up my alley!
