We have a winner! I love that bit in the movie - the bathrobe, the crashing waves, the HUGE phone. He's got it all! And yet...!

Reminds me of the time in Grade 10 business class (definitely in the top 3 stupidest classes in my school experience) when we, on the last day, watched Wall Street, as to learn about business ethics, but we ran out of time and the class was dismissed only just as Charlie Sheen was about to get arrested.

Alright, maybe I lied, and we watched until he encountered the police, and was obviously about to get arrested, but still it's a funny scenario to think about.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Tuchman

Although he has been in the stock market business for 34 years, Tuchman says he has never owned stock and if he had to worry about his own profit and loss, he would not be able to concentrate on his customers' well-being.

Who are the smug cunts who stand an applaud at the start/end of the NYSE sessions? It's a day at the office, dickheads.

Usually it's a company that's perhaps going public for the first time getting the honor to ring the bell?

Like, why's everyone clapping because that old guy just threw an outside pitch to the catcher? The game hasn't even started yet!
