6/10. The elder brother played futures with the information, but the information was lost by the double male lead. In the end, the elder brother bought a full loss, while the double male lead made a profit by selling shorts. It is equivalent to giving the audience a financial lesson. The joy of the entire film stems from the Capra-style drama irony and the miracle of the American Dream, resulting in a very reluctant plot. For example, it is impossible for traders to learn to buy and sell...

The story is quite ironic. A person's life can be so easily manipulated... This is the story of smashing one's own bricks in the foot... In addition, the leveraged trading in finance is simply amazing. Inside the circle, the reality is cruel, insider information is only in the hands of a few people, without insider information, everything is a small...

A dollar bet can distort people's lives arbitrarily... Is it knowledge or circumstance that makes a person... Sure enough, it's the butt that decides the head, the movie 30 years ago... It's pretty...

Louis Winthorpe III: [after trading ends on FCOJ, he and Billy Ray are quickly finalizing up some last minute sales. Once they're finished, they both look up to see the cost at 29. They then look at one another and scream in celebration and hug. After they're finished, they see the Dukes looking at them] Happy New Year!
Randolph Duke: [He drops their now-worthless sales papers on the floor]
[hoarsely]
Randolph Duke: Winthorpe.
Mortimer Duke: [stunned] Valentine.
Billy Ray Valentine: Hey! How'd y'all make out today?
Mortimer Duke: How could you do this to us after everything we've done for you?
Billy Ray Valentine: Oh, see, I made Louis a bet here. See, Louis bet me that we couldn't both get rich and put y'all in the poor house at the same time. He didn't think we could do it. I won.
Louis Winthorpe III: [grinning] I lost.
[Pulls it out of his breast pocket and shows it]
Louis Winthorpe III: One dollar.
Billy Ray Valentine: [Accepting it] Thank you, Louis.
Louis Winthorpe III: After you.
Billy Ray Valentine: Certainly.
[They both leave with Billy Ray doing Eddie's "laugh" and Lewis giving the Dukes the Aykroyd "stare"]

Randolph Duke: Exactly why do you think the price of pork bellies is going to keep going down, William?
Billy Ray Valentine: Okay. Pork belly prices have been dropping all morning, which means that everybody's waiting for it to hit rock bottom so they can buy cheap and go long. Which means that the people who own the pork belly contracts are goin' bat-shit. They're saying, "Hey, we're losing all our goddamn money, and Christmas is just around the corner, and I ain't gonna have no money to buy my son the G.I. Joe with the kung-fu grip, right? And my wife won't f... my wife won't make love to me 'cuz I ain't got no money, right?" So they're panicking right now, they're screaming "SELL! SELL!" to get out before the price keeps dropping. They're panicking out there right now! I can feel it! They out there!
Randolph Duke: [on the ticker machine, the price keeps dropping] He's right, Mortimer! My God, look at it!
Billy Ray Valentine: I'd wait until you get to around sixty-four, THEN I'd buy. You'll have cleared out all the suckers by then.
Randolph Duke: This is Randolph Duke. Advise our clients interested in bellies to buy at sixty-four. Mr. Valentine has set the price.
[He punches up the numbers on his calculator]
Randolph Duke: Do you realize how much money he just saved us?
Mortimer Duke: Money isn't everything, Randolph!
