I was at my parent's house while the TV was playing idly when this ad came on and immediately everyone stopped in their tracks and watched. Congrats to to the team who put this together. This is a great advertisement, as a filmmaker, I can't like this enough. Give whoever's responsible a raise ;)
/watch?v=WDwTQ57YyzI ud dig this movie
Totally agree. Great story.
@AMWF lololol
Yep, it's pretty perfect. That is, of course, putting aside the fact that advertising is ethically dubious at its core
Such an annoying ad
Although the ads are annoying this isn't even bad at all!
It’s annoying
It's very annoying to me
@@TheFunnyGuy9000 your opinion is irrelevant
@@AH-lx5nj your opinion is irrelevant
@@RawDogTV so
Everytime this ad comes up I would watch it until the end cuz this ad is so well-made!
Beware. They charge 1.5% convert fee for US stocks! Stay away from WS!
Is this a real story? Mike the CEO is god
Exactly
I must admit... I do too.
Yeah.
Welathsimple ads are next level
Is this ad based on a real story? If its true props to the CEO doing good for the world
@@tz7710 yeah it's the story of the boss of wealth-simple
@@marceloo_2714 he's flexing his story
@@tz7710 i know right ?! But idk he seems humble and cool
This ad is spam
A nearly perfect piece of advertising. Beautifully made. A story that keeps you watching until the very end. And most important, the people who created it have their finger placed precisely on the pulse of the zeitgeist in a way that resonates with younger potential clients. As a result, it ranges across income inequality, the 1%, women taking control of their financial futures, diversity and more, all with the help of a protagonist who is an unabashed outsider and socially concerned iconoclast. The ad touches all of the right buttons in just the right way to promote the product in a manner that doesn't feel like promotion. It sells without making you feel you've been sold. Advertising at its best.
Mhm
@@revupofficial ?
Are you a fucking bot or just a moron?
I always look for this comment whenever I come back to this video. Such a perfect description of the appeal of this ad!
Something tells me you are an english teacher.
The boy playing “young Mike” is fantastic!
meeliebugg its funny because he is in my class
@@lulu962 haha is he really smart and nerd?
김동준 kinda lol😂😂
I agree
calm down, priest
i get chills when everyone on the sidewalk stops to look up + that melody
I’m one since October 2018 and I couldn’t be more proud of my decision to be with Wealthsimple! Thanks for existing !! Much love from Montreal ❤️
Fun fact: the company name at 0:50 is “michael & michael & michael” 😂😂
Oh shit! I saw that but I didn’t register I until you said it. 😂😂
Who wrote this song it’s really catchy
Thats why im here :/ tryna figure it
czcams.com/video/rqPnDMBzM5k/video.html
Here is the song
@@wyrmwood4594 wtf no it isnt
@@ArminGamer ok so you can’t look it up on your own,czcams.com/video/f6Of1D1-WkY/video.html
@@wyrmwood4594 Thank you so much !!!
"We own this town!" Had me laughing
I don't belive I've ever searched out an Ad on CZcams just to rewatch it several times. 🤔 Who ever came up with this deserves a raise, same with the composer/pianist.
They worked with ballad.co for the music apparently.
It's refreshing seeing quality ads, love the voice over, she sounds amazing! More of her please.
Tired of watching DIY CZcams ads where some guy yells at you that you should invest like them to get a million $ in JUST ONE DAAAAAAAY~~!
Do more master classes! Those are fun and informative. Thank you.
This is Mike saying I love this ad
I'm here for this song... I agree with everyone else, release this song!
damn i really want the song in this.
SAME !
IKR
just use shazam
@@whatshoulditypehere1961 doesn't work
@@whatshoulditypehere1961 Shazam’s pretty shit quality now sadly
1:01 “Then Mike had a very Mike idea....” I love that 😂
2 years later and I suddenly remembered this ad. Great stuff.
I never skip this ad 😂
I agree. Btw Man Utd are the best
@@revupofficial you bet!
I always skip this ad. It's annoying as hell and pops up on every video I watch. I hate this goddamn ad.
This is absolutely incredible! Hats off to the wealthsimple team and Michael Katchen for creating such an extraordinary technology.
You know the ad is actually good when you're enjoying a nice buzz and the ad completely entrances you 🤣
No it doesnt
“ Mike was sort of...A NERD” LOOOOL BEST PART 😂
One of the only commercials I do not skip! Good job
I had to look up the ad. If I see one more ad by wealthsimple, I'm going to make sure the poor stay poor and the rich get richer
Finally, someone who is isn't financing this damn company.
I love this ad so much. You know it’s getting bad when I can recite the entire thing from memory…
What is this movie called? Can’t wait to watch it. Lol, got excited with the ad
stranger than fiction with Will Ferrell... check it.. this adds a complete rip off..
The direction and music is absolutely beautiful, be proud of this
I just did a report on Michael Katchen and WealthSimple and this ad was my inspiration thx:)
Brilliant! I cut the big bank commission cord and moved my portfolio to WST.
Came here for the song!
I sent it to my dad. He's one of the 457k Mikes in Canada 😂
This song is a fucking jam
I watch this as like everyday cuz of the song
I feel like this would be an awesome movie, wealth simple you have made the best ad I’ve seen so far, brilliant
Hi! im the kid actor who played young mike in this commercial. I just wanted to say that i loved working for you guys and how every single last person back stage was amazing. Thank you for the opportunity you gave me, you all are so awesome! Even though it was around 3 and a half years ago when we shot this, i still remember every last detail. You guys are so cool, i hope your company continues to grow.
also i still remember the impact from that ball at 0:31 lol
Really? Wow nice work. They should turn this into a film of its own
yesirr Mike
Wealthsimple we know where you sleep. Don't hide the music from us!
🤣 lol ikr
The production of this ad really made me like it
I always have to watch this ad when it comes on because its so good dude
I SEARCHED FOR AN HOUR! The director, the company, the publisher and STILL, WHAT IS THE SONG??!!?
Omg same.
Brooooooooooos i fucking feel you. Looked at another add give me "stand on the word" "the Joubert singers". Good jam, tho I honestly feel like it's just a progression made for this add
This is a great ad. I loved watching it!
where can i find the background music? the piano sound great!
We worked with the team at Ballad.co to develop the music but unfortunately don't have a link to the song! Glad you enjoyed!
The song is so nice, please release it to the public
@@wealthsimple has it been released yet? I love it
@@wealthsimple please release rhe song!
@@wealthsimple release the song. Sell some shares to make it happen!
I literally clicked on this ad at the top of my CZcams page cuz the ad is so good
Samee
I like this story
Thanks for watching! 💛
@@wealthsimple no, just stop
amazing job, ad and production team!
This is truly epic, my friends the young Mike.
This is the only add I never skip it’s so good
the music is so good
Great ad, well put together!
awesome ad!
I've played this add so much cause of the song, I don't even know what the add actually looks like. Killer progression
These people made that very catchy ad
Also I searched this up and the second i left i got this ad
Looks like I’m late again. Great commercial, don’t know why it took me so long to finally just come here and watch the video rather than just watching through the entire ad every time it comes on.
The only ad I’ll fully watch.
Thanks Mike!
My first trading app. So easy to use!
best story ever
One of few ads I often watch. It's like a mini movie and not annoying like other ads that just shove the product in your face.
We are here just for the song...
I am just like Mike! Except for the making a successful company part.
"I knew I had to do my own research!" Lol
That's me up to 0:31, but instead of finance, I'ma make a game company.
I am also a Mike
best of luck!
Amazing ad!
This is a great ad, good work whoever made it. Actually entertaining to watch, very rare for an ad. Also, love the attention to detail.
Who is doing the voiceover?
Sounds like Judi Dench
Sounds like the girl from jamesbond
This ad is sooo good
When ever this ad comes I watch it all the time ti the end
Thats weird, because when this add comes on for me, It makes me want to mute my volume and face down my phone.
Who is the voice actress? She's great!
Awesome Mike😊
finally, a good commercial song instead of the same "inspirational" soulless songs with the same goddamn chord progression.
i like when Mike was walking to get his Troop🏆 good job Mike!👏🏼
why thank you!
Very creative
Love the song xD
I like the music.
Genious commercial. I like it. Good story. Like the voice,
I thought that this was a trailer for a movie when I first saw this ad. Would’ve made a hell of a film if they actually did it
Can y’all release this song..it’s so catchy
can we please take a moment of silence for all the Mikes with the last name Hunt?
That dry raspy British lady voiceover narrated this is rather mesmerizing.
i watched this on loop for an hour
U got a lot of time in your hands
I can't stop watching this video lol
that grandma is such a karen
Karen's an anti white slur.
I was one of the actors on set and got the opportunity to meet her. She was actually such a nice person! Honestly one of the nicest people ive met
I will never use your product simply because I was listening to music and you needed to put in a full length song AD in my playlist!!! Moderation...GAWD
Everyone who wants this song to be released like this comment so hopefully they release it
Thanks for the interest - we love the song too! We worked with Ballad.co to make this tune.
@@wealthsimple Will you ever release it?
@@wealthsimple Release the God damn song. The world needs it and your negligence is causing us all extreme anxiety.
We need the song.
who kindly tell me which ad company produced this advertisement? that is really a valuable company 👍
My names Mike and im from Canada. This is my story.
Go Mikey ‼️‼️‼️
This ad plays so much it makes me never want to explore using WealthSimple. I realize ads work but if you park an ad in front of my CZcams video and make me watch it over and over, you're setting the scene for a tragedy. Instead of paying money to get me to use your service, you're paying money to get me to not use it.
wow this advertisement is so good, whichever agency/team who did this knows the client base very well and didn't rehash the same nonsense most other F.Is use.
True.
I can't lie, I rewatch this over and over for the music
I would say that this the add that got me to wealth simple trade 😉
Good ad
This ad is pushed onto me WAY too much. I genuinely hate Wealthsimple at this point due to how often I've been forced to view this horrible ad. Also all the positive comments are bots probs lol
I watched it once all the way through but now i'm beyond annoyed seeing it pop up
Thanks Mike.. Because of you I have a 11K zero commission trading account and 135 CZcams subscribers :)
this for real? wows
the animated preroll ads are not ideal. cannae we use this ad instead?
I like how she says Mike is a nerd
This has so much meme potential
i was one of the actors in this. I sure do hope it gets memed eventually lol!
I wonder if anyone involved in composing the piano score had the soundtrack of the film 'The Conversation' in mind. Very effective ad, in any case.
I like it so good

Mike is the smartest person ever..
Like if you agree
