Whenever a major financial market crash occurs, why is it that (as shown in movies) the stockbrokers are shitfaced at the end? The investors should be fucked right? Why the stockbrokers, who just buy and sell for the investors?
In: Economics
1) they will have spent the entire day being yelled at by investors, and know there are more days like that ahead, and that’s rough. The investor who made zillions of dollars in the 2008 crash ended up leaving the investing business because he was so traumatized by all the yelling and abuse and stress, and he *made a lot* of money.
2) they’re investors too and so may have lost their savings
3) they’ll probably lose their job
