Dude fuck bankers lmao, we're on your side
christian bale reminds me of my brother
>t. wall street banker
Rich assholes get richer: the movie
Bale was a great autist
Goose was a great scumbag
Carrel was a great bad guy pretending to be a good guy
>waaah being successful is bad
>earning more money from just owning money and it around with minimal effort is guuud
The only one in the movie who identifies as Jewish is the only guy with as conscience and reluctantly takes his millions of dollars profit in the end.
Really makes you think.
>im too retarded to understand that this movie is based off a true story
>I'm too retarded to realize that almost every player on wall street is Jew
I literally laughed at the end when steve carell felt sympathetic to all those 'poor people''
This
This world is fucked beyond repair
I like it but it's still
>Insults your intelligence: the movie
>doesn't understand basic economics
You see the product you are using? Somebody had to build your computer. Why? Because they expected to make a profit in exchange. Otherwise, why would they risk their money? How did they pay for the factory that built your laptop? Somebody invested money into it. For the financial industry as a whole, profit can only be generated by investing into projects that society (consumers, governments and other businesses) deem beneficial.
>Now after someone else has done that hard work I'll use my existing capital to invest and ride off its success despite contributing nothing other than the ability for the company to borrow more money
ITT: people that bash a decent movie because they never took an economics course
The guy that wrote The Big Short worked for Goldman Sachs
I'm gonna be rich one day, so, fuck you poorfags for loving this movie keep crying in your safe zone faggots
you forget the part about shit investments failing and the government stepping in to bail them out, effectively subsidizing rich assholes who were greedy and stupid at the expense of everyone else
everyone worked for goldman sachs or do you still think clinton and trump have different advisors?
DUDE LETS TAKE A SAFE FINANCIAL PACKAGE THAT IS MORTGAGES AND TURN THEM INTO AN INVESTMENT VEHICLE AND ON SELL THEM TO INVESTMENT FIRMS WHILE PAYING HUGE COMMISSIONS TO MORTGAGE BROKERS TO CREATE DEMAND TO SELL MORE MORTGAGES WITHOUT ANY CHECKS AND BALANCES MEANWHILE WE BRIBE THE RATING COMPANIES AS THEY NEED OUR BUSINESS AND OH WAIT SOMEONE IS SMART ENOUGH TO CREATE DERIVATIVES AGAINST SAID INVESTMENTS THE MOVIE
OH AND NO ONE WENT TO JAIL LMAO
>MEANWHILE WE BRIBE THE RATING COMPANIES
Literally didn't happen
>OH AND NO ONE WENT TO JAIL LMAO
Because it was almost all legal
Causing an economic collapse by playing the market isnt illegal. If you believe it should be, then that's fine, but don't get pissed because people don't go to jail for doing it while it isn't.
Investing IS the hard work. You still have to choose which companies to invest into. If you invest that money poorly and select an unprofitable business, you lose your money. That business was unprofitable because it consumed more of society's resources than it could generate in value. When you choose to invest in a business idea that is profitable, you have enabled the creation of an entity that takes a certain amount of resources from society and increases their overall value, therefore positively contributing to society. There isn't a magic man who you give money to that then gives you double the money back. Every investment ultimately has a real-world impact, related to products or services. There are millions of possible ways to spend our resources but we can only afford a fraction of them. Profit based investment is objectively the most efficient and successful way of using resources.
As somebody else mentioned government bailouts, that was unacceptable. The government should have let those businesses completely fail and any shareholders should have felt the losses for their poor investment of society's resources.
>Investing IS the hard work.
a true liberalist kino
Everybody gets money in proportion to their contribution. You don't get paid for hard work. If you work really hard but are ultimately shit at your job, then you get fired. Would you hire a hard-worker who is utterly incompetent? If not, then you are a hypocrite. I have exhaustively explained the positive and tangible benefits that investors provide to society. They simply take a percentage of that benefit for themselves. They aren't stealing anything from you or taking anybody else's money as their actions ultimately result in a net gain for society.
>You don't get paid for hard work.
You don't. You get paid for good work.
>You don't. You get paid for good work.
user, you can't actually believe that
