Great scene.

That’s The Big Short — iconic scene with Steve Carell and Brad Pitt in Vegas. Whole market partying like it’s 2006, meanwhile the smart money’s already cashing out. Perfect reminder: when the slot machines are lit and the suits are euphoric… the real sharks are already short.

hey do you like cinematic music?

Whenever I get excited about the gold price I think about this scene because a runaway gold price means something is broken or in this case stirring under the surface. Used to dream of a 10k gold price. Now I wonder what the world looms like in that scenario.

I think about this scene pretty frequently
