So there's something good about this Series 7 training class...it helped explain the finale of the movie Trading Places for me...

You see for the longest time I never really understood how they bankrupted the bad guys in the stock market. I mean I knew that they had bought positions at a way high price but I never really got how they made all of the THEIR money. I remember asking my dad what really happened at the end and all he could say was, "They just made a lot of money." I asked how and he said, "Um...through good business." This of course was the first sign to my young mind that my dad really didn't know it all...
