youtubers malaysian millenial should watch

YouTube, Instagram and Tiktok are the top three video content platform in Malaysia. Personally, I only use Youtube but not the other two social media platform. It could be due to I am an old millennial (sigh). Instagram and TikTok are more for the Gen-Z.

Covid19 and social lockdown have definitely changed the way we live, learn and work. Everything will be slowly shifting towards online and mobile. Youtube is such a great platform for learning new knowledge. It is much more than cat, prank and music videos.

During MCO, you may notice there is a sharp rise of so-called online gurus selling courses on both Facebook and YouTube. Online learning and education are here to stay. They will only become more popular and common.

Before you shell out your hard-earned money to buy courses from online gurus, I highly recommend you check out these 6 YouTube channels and read our TechRakyat’s smart tips from time to time.

Ray Dalio is a billionaire investor. He manages one of the largest, if not largest hedge fund in the world, a total of 138 billion USD asset under management as of April 2020

If you want to understand how economics work, learn from the grandmaster. When a billionaire willing to spend his time to produce videos for the public, he is either trying to bring greater good (or greater evil) for mankind.

In this case, Ray Dalio is definitely trying to bring a positive impact to society. Similar to any billionaire Youtube channel (eg: Bill Gates), don’t expect any frequent update.

5. Patriot Act

Regardless of which country we stay, today’s media are constantly being censored or controlled by the Government. Patriot Act is the voice which people need in this time of chaos. Quoted from one of the top-voted comments on its video, “comedians are helping bring change for the better and politicians are a joke”.

Each episode of the show is always very well-research, backed by real numbers, filled with constructive criticism and funny at the same time.

Recommended video:- Malaysia, 1MDB, and Goldman Sachs. =)

Always look at the both sides of an issue and think more independently.

6. Coffeezilla

Last Words

There are so many good videos and content creators on YouTube which cover almost every topic under the sun. I will not be able to include all of them on this list. Learning is important but appropriate amount of entertainment is much needed too. So, find a balance between these two so that you will not get worn out learning or just procrastinate watching prank videos.
