1. This niggas said I designed a marijuana bomb 😂
2. Charles Koch is the original Iron-man.
3. WTF, daddy Kock worked in RUSSIA for totalitarian dictator Josef Stalin, he inherited millions and an oil company
   NOT A SELF MADE MAN
4. guy in video talks about adding value to community does a google search.... Jeez.... This guy should go into politics cause he is good at saying one thing and doing the opposite. and oh wait.. he is in politics as well... jeez... Are any of these people in the investor archive not scumbags?? Only thing consistent thing I have seen about all these people is that they are all more or less taking advantage of people.
5. Charles Koch is not only a entrepreneur but also a thinker！He represents Conservativism！I respect him！
6. Its ironic how he wrote a book on "good profit" when he obviously become wealthy from the the opposite method.
7. do you really think he is going to say that he Loves Money above Everything and that He will lie ,cheat , steal and Sold His Soul to the Dark Side to get more Money //
8. do you have to create value to make money in the stock market or do you need only the knowledge and execution
9. Gov Contracts
10. I just can't watch this a/hole.
11. step
    1) inherit a shit ton of money
    2) pollute every stream and every molecule of air while trying to crush labor's collective bargaining power
    3) Enjoy the economy of the last 37 years and compound interest
    4) Back crooked candidates in local, state and fed governments who change laws so you can pollute and keep poor people poor-
    5) repeat
12. Repeat after me, if you are bored from a rich family, then you are one of the 88% to make it big in life , and if you are in the 12% and lucky enough to have a esquire ship to get into a good college, and I am neither rich or capable to give my son $220 to sign up for his classes " he got the rest of the money from financial aid, and I sent him my last of $127 to help him out, and now I'm here complaining, if I did have enough to make him go to sleep tonight's knowing that dad is a great guy, and no guilt or asking him for help from where.
13. How the Koch Brothers REALLY built an empire: inherit an oil company.

17. Not taking risks with the environment? ???? You are a liar Mr Koch. Research that you paid for recently shows that global warming is a huge problem and caused by the very oil companies which you have made ubiquitous. You are a science denier Mr Koch and an enabler of polluters and tax dodgers. Shame on you. You should start listening to Bernie Sanders, who is twice the man you are. You are a selfish terrible human being. Psychopaths make the best CEOS and they tend to be glib and superficial and always think that they are right - typical example.
