Get Smart with Money

I feel bad for the football player, was given the worst advice ever. He's probably broke by now. Just put all your money in two heavily overpriced etfs at the end of a supercycle etf bubble, lol. That's dead money for the next decade, rather than 10% profit every year. He's now,a year later, already down 20% on his "investment", and the worst drop following recession is still to come. The only one that got rich is his "advisor", from selling his garbage "advice". Dude doesnt have a clue about markets and it shows. Lol, what a joke. Don't follow this docu people, you will get wrecked financially.

Don't say negative words about this documentary. Instead, watch till the end and every single minute of it. You do not have to match with the counts and evaluate are they true or not. Simply it's a math formula that most of us aren't aware of. After watching this full documentary I found it very helpful and I think it has inspired me think at least. And it is truly teaches us that first world problems are incredibly basic. For the rest of the world, they simply learned it in advance which benefits them and for their next generation. You can say it's a middle class life style show. But I think it's for everyone and we know that already.

I hoped until the very end that at least one good advice will be given :( but no.... a lot of clichés and that's it. Waitress who wants to be an artist, the football star who doesn't know how to mange his money and at the end he wants to give back to his community (this was already cringe) and so on. Everybody was buying things from Amazon and that was the problem. They even had a home renovation project included because that sells or they just run out of things to film? It could have been a short film of 15 minutes and even like that it would have been to long :( I don't think I will watch a netflix documentary ever again this aren't documentaries this are bad reality shows.

If you are hoping for financial and economic experts providing fundamental personal finance advice, you'll be disappointed. Instead we get underwhelming advice following unique case studies of individuals in different financial situations. I do appreciate Netflix's attempt in trying to capture the widest audience possible, but if you already have a basic understanding of budgeting and investing, you're more advanced than the target audience. I was more interested in finding out if the NFL player (Tees) made the team roster. I think this show demonstrated the need to get smart with money, rather than how to actually get smart with money.
