Credit Cards, Banks, and the Maxed Out Documentary


Today we will begin watching part of an award-winning documentary called, "Maxed Out". We will be pausing the movie every few minutes to discuss various aspects of the movie as they relate to this class, our experiences, and our future. Please feel free to comment, ask questions, or ask for clarification.

An interesting juxtaposition from the opening scene in Maxed Out is this video about the economic collapse of Las Vegas and the drying up of the housing market there.
