The Big Short, Michael Lewis

Wow, I saw this film yesterday and it helped me to clearly work stuff out about the sub prime housing mortgage loans in the US during the naughties (2005 to 7 say).

I rarely read the book after I've seen the movie but in this case I'm going to so that I can focus on all those financial terms and their meaning, again.

And, apparently, the same phoney stuff once again went on the market for sale in 2015 (so the statements at the end of the movie informed) .....

Anyone read the book? Got any comments?
