    Panic: The Untold Story of the 2008 Financial Crisis examines the major players and various factors leading to the 2008 US financial crisis and the ultimate prevention of devastating economic collapse.
    The documentary takes a political and economic microscope to the atmosphere just before, during, and after the end of the 2008 market decline. With exclusive interviews from politicians, entrepreneurs, and leaders of the big banks such as Lehman Brothers, the story unfolds itself into gritty layers of a complex socioeconomic mashup.
    US Presidents George Bush and Barack Obama give their account of the crisis that occurred during their delicate transition of power. Members of Congress Nancy Pelosi and Judd Gregg discuss their efforts to stabilize the economy and support an American people on the brink of destitution. Included are perspectives from the likes of investment guru Warren Buffet and the former head of Goldman Sachs Lloyd Blankfein.

    Really where are investors putting their cash? Isn’t it crazy how mortgage rates continue to rise with higher imports and declining exports, but the FED is yet to lessen cost. Something will eventually break if they keep raising interest rates and quantitative tightening.

      So that's not how that works. He got a certificate which allowed him to sell the assets to avoid conflicts of interest and then he had to place the money in permitted property (treasuries). The tax is deferred to the sale of the permitted property, not forgiven entirely.

I'm delighted I was able to reach out to him earlier this year because while others were grumbling about the downturn in the markets due to the state of the economy, I was busy learning from him and eventually made over seven figures in the first quarter alone, which is why it's always good to join the correct community.

      Occupy was a lot broader than just 2008, it also didn't exactly amount to anything in the end. It's not like it actually elected officials or changed anything. It still exists in progressive sentiments but there's about it. Tea party was less about the recipients as it was about the bail outs in principle. Bunch of hot air. But then again, that is its legacy, still with us, just hot air and bluster as they happily continue to shovel money out to the usual suspects. That movement got subsumed very very quickly, while occupy in the other hand got dispersed.

    I have like 5-6 corporate/financial catastrophe documentaries i like to watch 1-2 times a year. This is one of them, alongside inside job. I love watching both back to back.
    What strikes me about this one is just how many times the big players in this (paulson, bernanke, bush, geitner, the bankers) all contradict themselves, sometimes within 2-3 sentences lol.
    "I have always been a free market guy, the government should never intervene. But when the market needs almost 2 trillion dollars in bailouts, we need to give the government unspecified and wide ranging powers to save the markets"
    The whole metaphor of the squirt gun and bazooka is also such a massive contradiction. "We need these powers but will never use them. But if we dont get these powers, the economy will fail. But dont worry, we wont use the bazooka, we'll just need it to scare people who are scared." And these people used the bazooka as soon as they got it to federalize fannie mae and freddie mac. Like come on...
    Fannie and freddie are also part of the contradictions bc of the "implicit guarantee" or whatever they called it. "It diesnt exist in paper, it was just assumed. But no where was it stated that the government would guarantee the loans. So thats why we needed wide ranging government powers to federalize them". I felt like when paulson was explaining the implicit guarantee or whatever he was acting as if this would never ever happen.
    They make statements similar to this one time and time and time and time again.
    And i think thats what bothers me the most about this specific documentary. The people who created this mess 30 years ago are trynna come off as the heroes because they "fixed" the mess and prevented societal collapse. Its like mass shooters who kill themselves after killing 10 people in a mall and saying "hey at least i killed myself too so i know i was doing something wrong".
    Please
    The Morgan Stanley dude using his southern aristocrat accent he picked up at cotillion class to act like he had no idea how this happened lmfao "all of a sudden we were looking at all this data" uhhhhhhhhh isnt that the entire basis for investment banking? How the hell did you get to be CEO of one of the largest banks ever and have such a derisive tone towards "data". Makes you wonder what wouldve happened and how bad this wouldve been if Fuld, Paulson, Dimon and all these other clowns actually knew what they were doing. What would the bailouts have been like then? 5 trillion? 10 trillion? I mean jesus christ the fact no one was hung in the middle of times square for this is such a shame

    I’ve seen this before, and even have family that personally dealt with some of these ‘characters’… many of them were viewing this whole thing as a board game. Many of them didn’t take a hit worth mentioning.
    Seriously, ‘rushes on money-making schemes equal ‘bubble’’ and bubbles pop.
    Best advice I was ever told, if you see ‘make money quick’ schemes on late night TV… don’t do it, party’s over, and the sharks are circling to eat what chum is left

      Without a doubt, the Fed is to blame for the exceptional catch-up measures currently in place since they were initially too slow to control inflation. The outbreak, supply-chain issues, and the state of Ukraine are all contributing reasons to the impending inflation perfect storm. Not to mention the steep rise in housing costs, another aspect that makes it difficult for the Fed to keep inflation under control. In conclusion, if you have the money, remove it quickly away to take advantage of the high savings rate.

    Looks like the producer of this video doesnt quite understand. Its not that people didnt understand the response, its that they were angry(rightfully) that the system is set up like that. That was the problem.....and it still is! We are putted against eachother and slaves to the stock market because the only hope for retirement is that they or at least the companies in one's portfolio. The stock market isn't the economy. Often when the stock market is doing well the REAL economy is terrible. Whats the point of keeping them in business for the sake of an IRA or 401K when people can't afford to live now?! I did everything "right" if not more. I contributed a matched 5% of each check for almost 2 decades into a "low risk" IRA. It was wiped out in 2008. In fact it went to negative because I was still being charged "management" fees! I spent the next 12± years doing it again and adding any kind of "extra" money to help make up for it.....and the pandemic wiped that all out. I wpuld have been better off buying Nintendo games! They went up hundreds of percent in that same time. Wealth addicts are ripping the copper out of our society and we call them the "people of the year"....and make films trying to rehabilitate the same types of people that did that their whole lives. The same kinds of people who apparently not only didnt think that home prices would go down, but bet everything that they would keep going up as they had been. The people that caused it, went on to do it again(with bonuses) while those who had nothing to do with it still suffer today. The system is literally obscene!! My only hope is that I die before I reach retirement age and that my life insurance will pay my kids school loans or maybe get them a car. We didn't defuse the "bomb" we just added more fuse. Yes it "recovered" , but recovering means getting back to how something was. How it was, and still is, is the "bomb". We need to change things before it goes bad, not while it is.Rant. rant.

      The bailout wasn't a giveaway. It was more like a loan (but not really a loan). The government profited on the bailout, to the tune of many billions of dollars. An equivalent bailout for the people would require them to pay it all back plus significant interest.
      The bank bailout and the fed's actions did not cost anything, but it did prevent total financial collapse.
