Financial Meltdown -Inside Job

Post by dvortex »

Hi to all subscriblers of this forum,

I wanted to share with you a good and insightful DVD i watched yesterday. In this documentary, it talks about financial meltdown of 2008 -The how we got there, who caused it and what was done (and not done). Our Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong was also featured!

The show also featured the CEOs, fed the people whom were involved and what they done(or could have done). The people who fought against regulations of the derivatives market and later on you could see why they fought against it -for selfish gains (in my opinion)

If you are able, I would urge to rent/buy the DVD version. Why? because it contains "deleted scenes". One of deleted scenes features our PM Lee and talks about his pay and ministerials pay.

The DVD is entitled "Inside Job"

I rented it through ezy video, their outlet can be found from this link:

I believe it should also be available in neighbourhood video shops. Alternatively, before you decide if you should invest 1 hour 40 mins watching this DVD, you could watch the trailer on youtube

Thank you!

I am interested in watching this. Will be looking to rent it.

I have watched a documentary shown recently on Starhub cable TV entitled "Enron -The Smartest Guys in the Room".
It was a documentary on how Enron grew to a multi-billion dollar company and then collapsed with shareholders
losing all their money and employees lost their jobs due to the manipulation of Enron financial results by
the creative accounting of their bosses ......
