Have you seen ‘Inside Job’ by Charles Ferguson? If not, be sure to at some point if you’re interested in how the financial world went boom in the last decade. This film shows very clearly why everything went wrong and explains a lot of the horrendous economic conditions that we have endured and continue to see today. Vast youth unemployment, less free education and training, a massive gap between the highest/lowest paid workers and no regulatory reform of Wall St/The City/etc by weak governments – this film will show why we are where we are.

One of the biggest takeaways for me – those who blew everything up are also still running the show today. Bingo!
