The Big Short, the movie

Oh man...a film about my hero Dr. Mike Burry - can't wait!!

 

It must be pretty surreal to be Dr. Burry in the last 15 years....leave medicine, start a hedge fund, bet against the big boys, win big, get famous, get a book written, get a movie made...all because of his tendency to "think independently." Even more surreal is the fact that he is very shy, awkward and wants the furthest thing from publicity.

 

I know films need the guns, hot girls, fast cars to appeal to a wider audience but I hope it actually shows that Dr. Burry and the other shorts went through during late 2005-early 2007 when the outside investors began questioning Burry, threatened to pull money out, made Dr. Burry physically sick.

 

Yeah what a life, you make several x for your clients, and those same clients reward you with massive redemptions... No calls, no inflows, no nothing...
