If there is anyone, even just one of you, who does not truly understand how we got to where we are today in terms of the financial crisis, I might have a resource for you.
One of the reasons that decent people make "bad" (or unethical) decisions is because they simply did not understand - or even think about - the implications or consequences of those decisions. It is the old, "But I did not know that could happen!" problem. So, in the interests of trying to let you know what might happen if you find yourself in the finance profession later in life, I would like to be sure you are as prepared as possible.
