The latest from our son. I am grateful for the title card, having never heard or heard of the Justin Bieber song. Sorry.
There are more songs at Ben’s YouTube channel.

This is so great!!!
ReplyDeleteGood job, Ben!
It reminds me of The Big Short, which uses Selena Gomez [Justin Bieber's ex-girlfriend) to explain the baking term "synthentic CDOs"!
Frex = Fresca
I haven’t seen this one, and I thought you meant that someone invoked Selena Gomez to make an analogy. And then I looked it up. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, sorry-- I was sure you'd have seen by now (it seems you usually see movies before I do? e.g. Spotlight).
ReplyDeleteI see I said Selena explains a "baking" not a "banking" term, which makes it all more of a hash!
Btw, I recommend the movie--a quirky take on recent economic history. (I'd liked Moneyball by the same author too--very similar, though grimmer.)
Yes, I did get to Spotlight early. And The Martian . But a lot of times I wait for the DVD. Our nearest theater is a horrible multiplex. But we are resolved to schlep to the “art” theater to see Youth .
ReplyDeleteI knew you meant banking, though “synthentic CDOs” sounds like it could be something food-related. No GMOs, no synthentic CDOs!
About banking and money more generally: have you seen Inside Job ?
Inside Job looks too, too serious and awful---like it'd have no Justin Bieber references at all. Do you recommend it?
ReplyDeleteYes, no Bieber. And not a single musical number! But I recommend it, strongly. I found it absolutely infuriating.
