    Isn't it pronounced leEman?

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Broke Built says:

    I've watched a lot of videos on the 08' financial crisis, and this is probably the best one that explains the Lehman situation. Very well done.

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hans Vetter says:

    Lehmann had sucked in simply too much CDS!

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Willie Rondo says:

    Are u on Reddit

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars xele fonte says:

    You failed to mention that Martin Shkreli benefited massively from Lehman Bros’ collapse. He owed them millions of dollars on terrible trading that they never recouped after collapse.

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars The Man Who Knew Too Much says:

    So we just gonna go about pretending our daily lives that Dick Fold doesn't exist?

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Igor Gontcharov says:

    That was probably one of the best explanations of what happened to Lehman Brothers and how it influenced the great recession.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars peter rabson says:

    Why did'nt Dick Fuld buy out his own bank. When the share price collasped? With all those bonuses he got.

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars RaferAlston27lol says:

    Lehman did not invent mortgage backed securities

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rob says:

    Yes but at least all the criminal bankers went to jail and if I'm not mistaken they're still in jail..

    Let's all thank Eric holder for that….

    The title of this video is misleading. Read Andrew Ross Sorkin's 2009 book Too Big to Fail , and you will see that Lehman was just a medium-sized player in a massive industry-wide scheme to manipulate investors into paying for supposed "AAA" quality bundled mortgage products that in fact were loaded with almost-certain-to-fail bad mortgages. It was a massive bundle of lies. Citigroup, AIG, and Fannie Mae got away with enabling this arguably criminal behavior, and then each got bailed out by the US government. Lehman was allowed to fail b/c it wasn't as large as companies like Citigroup, but the behaviors of Lehman and Citigroup were actually about the same.

    You did a great job explaining this situation. I’d say the clearest explanation I’ve ever heard.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Brian Buchetto says:

    It wasn’t their idea to make MBS’s lol what the hell

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars FlashOfLight says:

    This is a poorly researched video with basic facts wrong. For example, Barclay's had a deal to buy Lehman on Sunday but the FSA and the Bank of England vetoed it. Another problem is Paulson and Bernanke had no clue how serious the financial crisis was at the beginning when they allowed Lehman Brothers to fail while providing a bailout of Bear Stearns earlier in the year. Next, portfolio loans are a myth. Mortgages are almost always shipped off. This video is terrible because it repeats the same lies as the mainstream media.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jordan Van Meter says:

    Lehman failed September 15 2008….. not sure why you said 2009 😉

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Steven Haas says:

    They should have marched a couple of dozen execs from Lehman, AIG, Goldman Sachs, Bear Sterns, Countrywide, Moodys, and S&P down to the guillotine in Battery park. This was fraud on a monumental scale.

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Noah Willard says:

    No way his name is really Dick Fuld, poor guy

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sasha Sullivan says:

    Oh come on! Lehman didnt crash anything. Paulson and Goldman crashed the markets. Goldman and Paulson (the former Sec of the Treasury and a 30 year long executive at Goldman) refused to bail out Lehman because in 1998 when a fund called LTMC went under and asked Wall St for a bailout, everyone pitched in except Dick Fuld.

    This is the ONLY reason Lehman was allowed to go under.

    Lehman needed maybe 50-80 billion to re capitalize, most likely much less. The government said , "NO!".. Then they proceed to give AIG 100s of billions. Why? Because Goldman was the underwriter for about 15 billion of AIGs assets.

    They then proceeded to force Bank of America to buy Merryl Lynch, they saved Bear Sterns, Citi, and every other irresponsible bank.

    To add insult to injury, Goldman re-organized as a holding company and became eligible for TARP to the tune of 5 billion.

    So, NO, Lehman didnt crash sh!T! Goldman Sachs did!

    Aaand on top of all of this, AFTER Lehman was allowed to collapse the government lent them 87 billion and 51 billion anyway. To date, Lehmans has payed back everything but 4.1 billion to creditors.

    So the economy collapsed, GS got richer, the govt destroyed the markets and in the end, the rich wall st dudes still got rescued. Dick Fuld retired with 400million.

    In a twist of faith the people most responsible( CEO, COO, CFO) get a golden parachute while the workers get a foot in the butt..

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars feedthesnake says:

    lets call it what it is, a pyramid.

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Duck Norris says:

    During this time my place of work was approached for us to take applications for mortgages even though it is a bit removed from what we normally do. I remember thinking that mortgages must have been refined to a point anyone could process them. The whole thing blew up shortly after.

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Robert Sorenson says:

    Lehman played in a sandbox built by government regulation

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ajay Kumar T says:

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars JT C says:

    What a clickbait title! the video literally says NOTHING about Lehman bankrupcy's effects on world economy! the Video should be titled, How Lehman went Bancrupt …..

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars dip shit says:

    STUPID BORROWERS AND STUPID LENDERS, SEEMS IT WAS EVERYONE'S FAULT.

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars minyaksayur says:

    Lehman was an a-hole company, it was selling bonds like months before it collapsed through Citi and hsbc around the world. It dragged people even when it was dying.
