If Christopher Nolan Were An Investment Banker……

The levels of dream securitization that this movie presents will put even goliath’s of i-bankers to shame. Though unusual and creepy yet distant resemblance to “Potemkin villages” can be found in this movie. And unlike the movie dreamy projections, this was a real world manifestations, although differing means but the same purpose. I must say the movie jolted me out of my consciousness, thanks to such story line , where in i had difficulties to understand. But my eternal curiosity after being fed by elixirs of wisdom from my dear friends on some issues, finally i have come to the conclusion very much stating and supporting my limited idea and purpose behind my topic. …….

Why is everyone so enchanted by this much denounced yet hallowed profession (exceptions please don’t mind). And me too. The sweet aroma of greenbacks devoid of any exchange rate risk leverages our capital minds to such an extent that we are ready to build layers upon layers on nothing. Yet a dream job for many people. Sometimes it’s for good , sometimes it’s for bad. U need someone to blame, get them. U need someone to give u an advice , approach them. U need to write something spicy , involve them. . Perhaps i feel i-bankers have become the quintessential punching bags of our time. And the grave irony is that when a moviemaker follows the same in letter and spirits , he is given an italian leathered and french feathered red carpet and our poor bankers have to swallow deadly pills in the form of public humiliation and litigation prescribed by doctors of the so called government regulators .


 But my protaganist doesn’t have to be like that yet still considering his litany’s of movies , i am bound to ask what if he were an i banker.

1  Dreams would be traded/sold in a tranche ranging from great to worse dream.


 Wannabe i bankers would have been reading “ interpretation of dreams” by sigmund freud rather than myers and   damodaran.


Psychologists would have been more in demand rather than a cfa level 3 .


 Jokers would have been the favorite dealers.


 The job’s prestige would have shifted from quantitative projections to illusion creations.


Aa - and indian ayurveda industry would have been the microsoft for these bankers.
