Financial Management For Young Adults
1999. Amazon.com
One startling statistic stands out in this beginning
financial lesson aimed at young adults: David Durand points out that an
18-year-old who saves $600 a year for 20 years can easily end up with nearly
half a million dollars by age 65. If that doesn't get young people's attention,
maybe hearing the "learn to manage your money" drill from someone
besides Mom and Dad will help. Also covered are the evils of credit-card debt
and the difference between savings, budgeting, and investing. This video is a
no-frills yet professional presentation--all of the big bucks production money
must be socked away for retirement--and an excellent primer for those striking
out on their own who might think twice before dropping $4 a day at Starbucks. --Valerie
J. Nelson

Warren Buffett - Oracle of Omaha
In an era where technology stocks have catapulted people to the status of overnight millionaires and sent them crashing back down again, Buffett has eschewed the fast-paced IT stock action. Many shareholders deserted the sinking ship of Buffett’s company, convinced that his investment genius had reached its heyday. Warren Buffett, who has beaten the S&P 500 almost every year for three decades, was suddenly seen as an investment dinosaur. But as the IT bubble burst, he has once again re-emerged as a pre-eminent financial genius who stuck by his long-term investment philosophy.
His company’s annual meeting in Omaha is a tribute to his philosophy… sort of. His hordes of fans long to know the secret to his success but find it difficult to attain his level of patience with an investment decision. While Buffett deliberately sidesteps the trappings that are often associated with wealth, it's difficult to tell if his fans are more interested in him or the status that he symbolizes. No one has made heroes of financial tycoons quite like the people who zealously follow the Oracle of Omaha.
"Oracle of Omaha" is a 60-minute documentary
shot on High Definition. The film features interviews with Peter Lynch,
biographer Roger Lowenstein, The Motley Fools, Warren Buffett’s children and
Buffett himself. The film was directed by Lisa D. Gildehaus and is a Riveting
Pictures production.

Since accidentally catching this film several years ago on cable, I have counted this as one of my favorite films. It is dated by its 60's chauvinism but sports some of the snappiest dialog and humour since George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart wrote. My favorite movie quote of all time comes from this film. I hope you give this a viewing. I promise if you like subtle and not so subtle dialog driven satire, this is a film for you.
