At that time, I had just finished studying macro and micro, and I watched this film worthy of deep reflection in the professional terms that I didn't understand. I experienced the greed and shamelessness of the financial world, the fierce collision between the pity and the temptation of money in the face of interests. .
In this subprime mortgage crisis, there are no real winners, only innocent people who are suffering and being played with. Credit rating agencies that are full of lies, mercenary financial capitalists, and opportunistic characters like dancers abound. Does free competition lead to monopoly? Either. However, the market without effective supervision is destined to only bring about the rotten life of paper and gold fans, and a chaotic world where black and white are reversed. Even Mike, who has always despised Wall Street and called for social responsibility, does not choose to compromise in the face of huge interests (although he is struggling).
This is the reason why you don't like finance. It nourishes a small group of people, but hurts a large number of people. It is not bad to follow the laws of the market to earn a reasonable income, but blindly pursuing profits and squeezing the ignorant civilians of the industry will only be despised. After the rapid development of the financial industry, the real economy should also usher in the great development under the trend of artificial intelligence.
