Levon Helm - “You have Memphis…cotton country, rice country”, Levon says. “The most interesting thing is probably the music.”

Martin Scorsese - “Levon, who came from around there?”

“Carl Perkins. Muddy Waters, king of country music. Elvis Presley. Johnny Cash. Bo Diddley. That’s kind of the middle of the country, you know, right there. So bluegrass or country music, if it comes down to that area, and if it mixes there with rhythm, and if it dances, then you’ve got a combination of all those different kinds of music. Country, bluegrass, blues music, show music.”

“What’s it called then?”

“Rock and roll.”
I started my career as an actuary. There’s an early scene in “About Schmidt” where you can see a book on his shelf that I actually have on my shelf

I work in investment research now.

I’ve never worked for an Investment bank, but the douchiness of the bankers rings in The Big Short rings true

I’ve met mortgage lenders that had the same cocky attitude and cluelessness as those in the movie too.

I’ve briefly met Michael Burry a few times. He really is eccentric.

Fun fact, Michael Lewis who wrote the book graduated from Newman.

Some friends I know who’ve worked for Goldman et. al. say some of the vibe in Industry is familiar

Women initiate 70% of all divorces and 90% in the college educated group.


And they’ll say they do because men are the problem.

But….

Same sex male marriages have a lower divorce rate than traditional marriages

Same sex female - higher


You guys act like they took up arms against the U.S.

It is possible to love America but still have affection for your heritage.
