I'm just a trader

I’m just a trader.
Yes, I’m just a trader at the bottom of Wall Street.
I watched this movie when I watched more than half of it (personal habit~). I almost gave out some hot reviews when I saw it. With this kind of comment, it’s a very good movie about the financial crisis, but there are some anticlimactic, the top notes are so atmospheric, and the thrilling and thrilling clearance of these hours, it only took a few phone calls to end, I want to say The thing is that this is a financial crisis, not an eavesdropping situation, how can you expect it to shoot? The essence of the financial market is scams. The lowest level scams are people with low financial IQ (it doesn’t mean to belittle the majority of retail investors, but many people are really unsuitable) to cheat people with lower financial IQs, that is, Chinese retail investors’ favorite inside information. ~~ This is a low-level scam, the next higher level of scams is in the stock market, through the stock trading window, the most advanced scam is the last few calls in the film, that is a scam by people with high financial intelligence. People with high financial intelligence, a phone call, a few jokes and a few bargaining, hundreds of millions of transactions are completed. Those bonds can only be sold like this, not the stock trading window you imagine, but there is no fucking limit.
I can deeply feel the kind of helplessness that is ubiquitous in the film. Everyone is helpless, as big as the boss, as small as the newcomer who arrives for the first time, isn't it the same in the real world? No matter if you earn 250,000 a year or 2.5 million a year, you will find that the flowers are gone. You still have to run for money, the previous 30,000 years? FUCK! How did I survive that time! ?
The writing seems a bit messy. . . It’s just because my salary is nearly 20 times higher than when I first worked in the chemical plant, but what happiness do I get? Maybe not as good as before.
At the end of the film, when everyone knows the problem. A very human question was raised. Is this appropriate? Because it will kill a lot of people.
I don’t want to comment. I just want to tell a short story. A car with constant power is full of people. The car is driving on the road. The setting is that the lighter the car, the faster the speed. The fat man is as fat as a person in a 1/10 car. He found a problem. The end of the road is a cliff. At this time, he jumped the car and suffered the least injury. But once he jumped, the car would accelerate a lot. The one who jumps in the back will suffer a lot heavier injuries than him. Should he jump? If he doesn't jump, will the second person who finds that the end of the road is a cliff also won't jump because of his conscience?
The result is that the car is getting faster and faster, and the earlier the awakening is, the less the injury will be. The one who jumps before the car falls off the cliff can be mixed with a vegetative person, and all those who don't jump will go to see God.
The person who jumped the car is not wrong, because the car is there and the principle of the car remains the same. Just like the last BOSS said in those years, the same thing will always happen again and again.

    It's really an All-Star lineup: Spacey, Paul Bettany, Jeremy Irons, Simon Baker, Zachary Quinton, Demi Moore, Penn Badgley, Stanley Tucci. The situation on Wall Street is back. Much better than Wall Street 2.

    In the face of money, some precious things will die. For example, the bridge built by Eric, Sam's professional ethics, Seth's vision for the future, no matter how beautiful they are, they will bow their heads helplessly, hatefully, and sadly in front of money. Sometimes you seem to have the power to change the world, but in the end you find that you are always changed by the world.
