Welcome to this week's episode of the Money and Investing Show, hosted by Andrew Baxter and co-host Mitch Olarenshaw. This week, we take a lighthearted yet insightful dive into the world of finance as portrayed in Hollywood movies.

We kick off with an in-depth discussion about the infamous Jordan Belfort from "The Wolf of Wall Street," played by Leonardo DiCaprio. Learn about Belfort's rise and fall, the illegal tactics used, and the real-life lessons investors can take away.

Next, we turn our attention to the movie Margin Call, featuring Jeremy Irons. Set against the backdrop of the GFC, this film offers a stark look at the high-stakes decisions made in the financial sector and the importance of being first in the market.

We also explore "The Big Short," with Christian Bale portraying Michael Burry, who predicted the housing market collapse. Understand the courage to go against the grain and the importance of thorough research.

Finally, we delve into the story of Nick Leeson, the rogue trader whose actions led to the collapse of Barings Bank. Learn about the catastrophic consequences of poor risk management and lack of oversight.

Join us for an episode filled with valuable lessons from some of the most iconic finance movies. Take notes and, most importantly, take action to apply these lessons to your own investing strategies.
