Learn Finance from Movies & TV: Billions, Wolf of Wall St. By an Award Winning MBA Prof who worked at Goldman Sachs, at Hedge Funds and in the Venture Capital industry.

Course Description

Welcome to my free course called Learn Finance from Movies & TV: (from Billions, The Wolf of Wall Street and the movie Wall Street). This course is a fun way to learn about finance by analyzing finance movies and television programs.

In this course are videos I made that discuss how accurate are shows and movies like Billions, the Wolf of Wall Street and the movie Wall Street, based on my experience working on wall street at Goldman Sachs, the largest Hedge Funds and in the Venture Capital industry. At the end of this course , there is a short quiz based on the videos. I hope you enjoy this free course and thank you!

Topics covered in this course include:

  • How Hedge Funds make money
  • How Activist investors like Hedge Fund icon Carl Icahn and Private Equity firms make money (case study on the breakup of eBay and PayPal)
  • How trading floors work on the Buy Side and on the Sell Side
  • How Investment Banking works
  • Catalyst based investing
  • How to sell (and not “oversell”)
  • How some Hedge Funds violate Insider Trading rules and what the rules are
  • How Hedge Funds can tell if a CEO they are meeting with may not be telling the truth (based on training I received at a large Hedge Fund from 20+ year former FBI and CIA employees)
  • Why Over the Counter Securities are often the worst investments
  • Why using leverage and some derivatives products are not the best ways to invest

By An Award Winning Business Professor, Columbia University MBA Graduate (Majored in Finance) and former Goldman Sachs Employee who is also the author of the #1 best selling business course on Udemy called An Entire MBA in 1 Course. He is also the author of 101 Crucial Lessons They Don’t Teach You in Business School, which Forbes calls “1 of 6 books that all entrepreneurs need to read right now.”
