      It was an absolutely perfect metaphor for the credit default swap!! This stuff is immensely complex stuff to understand, especially in a movie format. Despite being a BRILLIANT dark-comedy/drama…. The writers deserve Oscars for writing in such a way as to educate their audience MID STORY… and MID-LAUGH… it’s honestly a bit baffling how they managed to do that.

      In the wake if the savings and loan crisis of the 1980s and 1990s, P.J. O'Rourke had a piece in Rolling Stone explaining how the S&L's pumped up their balance sheets by swapping properties back and forth, increasing their paper value and then borrowing against those bogus inflated values when the collateral wasn't worth what had been borrowed. It turned what seemed to be an incomprehensible situation into a depressingly obvious scam.
      While Adam McKay is a complete hypocrite by virtue of the fact he fully supports all the liberal politicians who protected the banks from regulation (like Barney Frank and Chris Dodd) which allowed for the 2008 Crash in the wake of the Democrat takeover of Congress in 2006, he does a good job here explaining what a house of cards and literal casino our financial system is as in the sidebar scene with Selena Gomez.

      Apparently, the line was just, "I'm so jacked!"
      But when he forgot to say the "so" part, instead of redoing the whole take, he just ad-libbed that "TO THE TITS" part and one of the film's funniest lines was born.

    One of the hardest things to do in a script is an exposition dump: you drop a ton of information on the audience's lap so they can understand what's going on. This scene is one of the best exposition dump scenes I've ever seen. It's entertaining, but it's also making very difficult concepts and business jargon accessible to people who don't know anything about the housing market, all while keeping an awesome pace and letting these characters develop. Incredibly well written, brilliantly directed and acted!

Also back then money was sooooo easy to come by, you really were a loser if you could only get a few sticks even as a start up fund. Remember even back then, if you had $10m AUM you likely didnt make more than $200k a year, which for finance guys in NYC is pretty bad.
