You can invest in 5 % -6% government agency bonds. LIKE Fannie Mai . Look them up the government will not allow these 6 agencies to fail. Or CD's at 4.5 guaranteed. Everything else is a casino with everyone jumping into only outside the United states mutual funds. MCFI . BEST WISHES.

Overall a good doc. Was a little frustrating though during the interview parts when a probing question was asked and then the response wasn’t shown for dramatic effect. Would’ve liked to have heard some of their answers to those questions. Especially from the govt regulators, since I’m sure their thinking during this period had to be quite nuanced (even if the result of their ultimate decisions didn’t seem so).

[@genossinwaabooz4373]

That was done for censorship reasons. I also wondered at first.

[@tipsandhowtovidsbybrianpal7282]

There wasnt anything they said just stuttering, they're to chicken shit to say what they really think and feel. Pretty much gotta be posessed by a demon. Evil nothing but evil but cowards as well

[@butchwatson3025]

Everything except for the last ten minutes of this documentary is worth watching.

[@chesthoIe]

38:07 "You can only take out insurance on the things you own." Pretty gross then how employers get to take out life insurance just in case one of us dies.

Brillian Documantary, "Engineers build bridges, Financial Engineers build dreams, that can become nightmares". and get paid loads more.

[@minnax8939]

Wonderful job! So pathetic are the academicians when they decline further talks about their earnings from these companies

[@larrylamb3480]

Simply " conflict of interest ".

[@thekagifret]

Their arrogance was breathtaking…give it your best shot! Wow that guy made me sick

[@kevinm.9323]

Where do you think bankers learn this behavior? Colleges must exist to keep these self described elites in control

Hard to spot a single person who isn’t a criminal

Capitalism mugged Iceland just like a drunk on Skid Row.

[@michaelbryant2071]

Ireland felt the same wrath with land and real estate speculation.

[@TDX3000]

What!? That doesn’t make any sense.

[@redorka6467]

wow, great movie, thanks for the research and for providing it to us. I have been aware of some of it but not to its full depth. And surly I am shocked about so many lies and the attitudes of those highly paid individuals.

[@joseornelas1718]

I like the part where Barney Frank is still on the Board at SVB after guiding them into ill advised purchases of T bonds yielding .75%

[@jasmincampbell8105]

So the people responsible walk away with all their money and the citizens are punished by losing jobs, unaffordable housing, and lesser quality of living 😢

[@gregorylyon1004]

Yep. And America never recovered from it. And we never will.

[@Skaevs]

and you paid for it with your tax money

Sound drops out for 1 minute at around 20:00. Again briefly at 22:00, 42:30 to 43:35

[@brahand]

Nice to read. Then it is not my device that is faulty.

[@KinG-tz5cm]

probably for copyright reasons if i had to guess. maybe the song

[@joshryantt]

This really exposes a dark evil of these people. To see economics academics so dismissive about academic conflicts of interest... to see people so flippant about the effects of their actions on the entire world... This is mad.

[@raptureexcelgroup6113]

So weird hearing everything after the last documentary had a good portion of the sounds and music removed for what we're assuming was copyright issues lol.

[@dongrandmaster3787]

Interviews during the accountability chapter are amazing. It reveals how predatory and opportunistic those who are entrusted on next generations Those professors should be sent for a long time behind bars with their books, lectures, papers, and articles that must be banned from circulation

[@davidf7883]

YT cut the audio right after Scott Talbot uttered the words "criminal activity"...

[@ErikBramsen]

Great docu, but why is there pieces of the sound track missing? Legal or technical problems?

[@wendyrosee]

I keep loosing in real trade but win in Demo. Should I give up on Trade? What should I do? How may I do better? What I'm I doing incorrectly?

[@vincentstewart1843]

I HAVE INCURRED SO MUCH LOSSES TO TRADE ON MY OWN,I TRADE WELL ON DEMO BUT I THINK THE REAL MARKET IS MANIPULATED.

[@janejane386]

I always advice new members to have an orientation on how it works before getting involved. Trade offers more benefits than just holding.

[@janejane386]

Kate Floretta in stagram

[@janejane386]

Google "katefxfloretta" anywhere take classes and learn to trade.

[@Mayor1248]

having a mentor is also very important when it comes to Trade, with out that, it can be very frustrating.

[@julianboone9542]

Investors in financial institutions or banks should keep in mind that this documentary fundamentally shoots straight however the use of the terms “bank and financial services” is a shame. The banks and financial services companies should but didn’t use the correct source of the whole crash. The top echelon of CEO,’s made the hundreds of decisions that walked right into the mess knowing the end was coming that would wreck the middle class. These guys are still doing what they did.

[@Skaevs]

Don't let them deregulate. Vore for presidents that keep the financial market regulated!

[@TanujAbhayKhanna]

Raghuram Rajan himself messed up the Indian economy during his tenure as the Reserve Bank Of India Governor. Glad that he has been kicked out.

[@TheCD45]

Awesome documentary!!!!

[@andreweasson6653]

How the f can there be no rules or regulations and when there is a problem then the gov must bail you out just confusing the normal people suffer .

[@JJSo12345]

Unfortunate that there are several times during this video where the volume cuts out.

[@willmpet]

Bernanke, Paulson, Geithner, and Summers are all guilty!

[@healthyone100]

and will never be held accountable!

[@michaeloneill1360]

EXCELLENT!!!

[@joesalgadSF415]

Wow I didn’t know those universities professors did that kind of jobs and getting paid very well. Why are they still teaching? They should get fired from those positions.

[@yanayoriginals8498]

They got those Board positions because of their teaching jobs and influence over the government who looks up to the academe as the know-it-all.

[@gregorylyon1004]

Professors get paid very well

[@dotsovertonesinging]

While this is a very unique take on the story, I think the investigation was stressed to drive a particular point of view. While I am on the underdog side, the good guys were not as grilled as the bad guys...with a few out of topic questions. An example of a balanced story is why should people take advantage of the ninija loans knowing they are wrong? Of course its very easy to show why things Didn't work after the fact, but lets keep it balanced. Ultimately, people take on the behavior of their captors...
