Rollercoaster ride of a tv show. Never thought a show about investment banking could be so entertaining.

My all time favorite show of the last few years. I’m halfway through a podcast recap series (on Seeking Derangements with Ben Mora & Hesse Deni, the first few episodes are free and the rest are on patreon). Here’s the elevator pitch: Three self-made billionaires are dropped in small American cities with fake identities and none of their possessions or contacts. With only a truck, a smartphone and $100 in their pocket, can they prove the American dream is still alive by starting businesses that reach a 1 Million dollar valuation in just three months??Ever since becoming a business owner I’ve done a deep dive into business media like this because it really gamifies life into a speedrun where now the variables and game elements are people and products and prices and logistics systems. It’s like applying D&D game theory to all of the connected economies in a city, which sounds stupid except they’re kind of right. Real life is just like that!

Ok so this isn’t usually up my alley, because I’m your typical banking/finance hater, but I clicked on it and watched the whole episode like a TV show.
SO FASCINATING. I didn’t know derivatives trading actually had to do with…derivatives.
I also LOVE the explanation of why mathematicians and physicists are involved in finance, it makes me feel less cynical towards finance as an industry.
You should watch this if you’re a STEM-y person, or a history person, or just generally if you don’t understand a lot of what’s going on in the nebulous world of finance.

For those that like to be jangly. I am a lad and I want my crown.
