Go see "The Big Short" if you want the truth about Wall Street.

[Sienna86]

it is an eye opener and my thoughts can't help but go to which candidates accept their money.

1. Oh yeah I'm going to see it next week.

Thanks for the reminder!

2. Margin Call

Is another very good movie. Haven't seen The Big Short but plan on doing so

[longship]

3. And read the book!

It is wonderful. Steve Eisman, the Steve Carell character of the movie, is really entertaining. Also, Dr. Michael Burry and the Cornwall Capital garage hedge fund guys.

The best scene in the book is Spider-Man (Eisman) at the Venetian in Vegas, double-dipping his edamame. "Say that again!"

Lewis' writing is lucid, informative, and, as always, entertaining.

4. I read the book.

But I will certainly rent it when it come out on DVD.

Another very good movie on this subject is Inside Job. Highly recommend it.

5. Inside Job is very good and every Anerican

should see it.

6. Yes - but I think they did not listen to Hillary when she said...

"cut it out"

7. Some points...

-A lot more people saw it coming than the handful of people portrayed in the movie.

-I worked in a real estate affiliated industry and could see the rise in home prices was unsustainable.

- It is human nature to ignore bad news, sometimes until it is too late.

[Uncle Joe]

8. I plan on it.

Thanks for the thread, Sienna.
