I once sat through an "interview" like this when I was about 19. About halfway in I got up and walked out. The guy seemed surprised and told me, in front of the other interviewees, to enjoy my time at McDonalds.

Most of them will NEVER become a "fucking millionaire", no matter how diligently they work at it. That sort of operation, even operating BARELY within the law, is designed to churn through brokers as surely as clients and stock. There will be the FEW that indeed will be seen as the "future", but for the rest, the compensation will prove disappointing, or as they get greedier, the top guys will just "move the goalposts" on them. In most cases, as their relationship is legally a contractor rather than a employee, which is critical, they have little recourse under employment laws, and usually, even if there's a case for fraud, the amount isn't enough to interest an attorney, and these scumbags KNOW it.
Affleck does well with this tricky monologue. He’s not just giving a douchy, cocksure motivational speech, he’s playing a douchy, cocksure dude who’s watched Glengarry Glenn Ross a million times and is ripping off the beats of that speech, in a less creative way
I like Affleck. I'm not sure why. A decent actor he is not though. Whole monologue was mediocre at best. Only reason you get fired up is because of the movie and Ribisi who is a mch better actor, though he hasn't shown it much. Perhaps in only a handful of movies he's done.
Yep. That broker would have seen what was up right away. The new ones were taught only what they needed to know to pass the series 7 not the intricacies of securities regulations and how illegal their activities were.
Very possible. I think there are definitely jobs out there where you work your butt off would would be a millionaire within 3 years. The key is they make it hard to tell if they push so hard because they need a constant churn of new blood(i.e. a glorified pyramid scheme) or they really are that good.
Well the line about his smile was obviously a joke. All he had and he was still a miserable twatbag. You never see romanticized stories of small town farmers/Carpenters/fulltime van campers/adventurist/ etc quitting their jobs to become stock brokers. You never see a Christmas movie about a young woman from the happy country move to the city to become a callous self hating jerk.

They tell you the same shit when you go to a Kirby vacuum presentation. When I realised who they were I was out the door before others had even sat down.
Same here. The Ben Affleck character in my interview told everyone we needed to pay $500 for “training” and had to relocate to another state if required. I laughed and walked out. As I left, I could hear the guy telling everyone else not to be as dumb as the guy that just left.
Maybe it was my upbringing, I've always been told to be suspicious of authorities and their motives, so I've been lucky enough to not get lured into those kinds of businesses.
This was back when interest rates on CDs and Bonds were paying 6 - 7% or more. And consumer prices were way cheaper. A million dollars went MUCH further.
What would be the point of even saying it at all. There simply isn't any in their logic. If they breathe, they should sell (bogus) stock. Someone who gets personal at that early point is not focussed and not interested in things running smoothly either.
@@udirt Or, it’s just really bad writing that isn’t remotely realistic to happen for sitting in a random open chair before a guy you’ve never met walks in for it.

@@shapiroshekelberg604 Unironically? Yes. Boys were taught how to shoot and maintain rifles, throw grenades, create defensive entrenchments, survive in the wilderness, march in a parade with elegant efficiency, operate as a unit, fight with their hands and daggers, and even had introductions to the military like riding in tanks and armored cars with the Wehrmacht and shooting artillery pieces. The indoctrination to fight and die for the Reich aside (honestly, every nation's boys should be inspired to struggle for its survival), the boys learned self- and collective-discipline, duty, hygiene, valor, teamsmanship, sportsmanship, athletic improvement, civic labor, and overall toughness (they'd get the boys into groups and just let them have at one another like a giant brawl and you'd be applauded for holding their own and taking scars, bumps, and bruises). Boys would work together, fight together, toil together, suffer together, and achieve together in a brutally realist way the Boy Scouts could only dream of and every German vet I've talked to looked back on their time in the HY with yearning and pride. It made strong, civically-minded, courageous boys with a hardened identity, camaraderie, and identity at a time when they needed direction and structure the most. If America had the right regime and a comparable program, I'd put my own children in. Before it got gay and effeminate, the BSA was the best part of my youth and I made so many friends but, it didn't go far enough and has since succumbed to Leftist decay.

@@madaneoulix1312 $1100 is miles away from $750. You’ll live in a shithole for $750. You’re wrong. Want to know why you’re wrong? The minimum wage in 1997 was $5.15 an hour. If you worked 40 hours per week, that’s $206 per week, before taxes. Your argument that $150 per week was amazing is the equivalent of saying “29 hours per week at minimum wage is amazing.” It’s not. And no delusions of yours will say it is. All you need to know is the minimum wage for 1997. Teens working at grocery stores and fast food we’re making more than $150 per week.
What’s overlooked here is being a fucking millionaire in NYC isn’t shit. It definitely won’t buy you that Ferrari and house in the South Fork. That requires multi millions.
This is just like the sales pitch we got for Cutco kitchen ware. The hiring managers entire speech depended on us wanting to go to the annual year end top sales party in Vegas. He promised us cash, girls and other things he cant not mention cause its vegas.
Unfortunately, a lot of Cutco "managers" are early 20s, and have no idea what real success looks like. I worked 3 years for Cutco around 20 years ago. I had an amazing manager who taught me the sales skills I needed in my next business. I didn't become a millionaire selling Cutco, almost no one does. However, Cutco gave me the skills I needed to become a millionaire in the financial services business I started after Cutco.
@seizetheday2890 honestly I loved their knives and my favorite are the scissors. The manager we had at the time was real young guy probably like 21 and got a branch of his own for hitting high numbers.

@@Dualities
I was actually talking about people who made their wealth before the internet or off the internet without the use of scams.
my point really was (and i've gone through this myself)
as you get to your first million or even hundred thousand you start to realize that you are now in a position unlike other people.
you also start to realize that some people (not all) that were your friends, even though are still your friends are jealous
it's not totally personal , it's more like... there is a frustration inside of them , where they want to get on top of their bills and what not, Now... you try and help them (take in my case.. i started a business, Normal business not online) and i tried to help my mate out to do the same so he could also get hundreds and thousands of dollars and work to a million
BUT HE COULDN'T DO IT, Not everyone can do it, thats the problem.
so you learn after a while to just keep quiet about it and after a while people just perceive you as they CHOOSE TO PERCEIVE YOU
some people see you as having more money
other people don't realize and they see you as being broke or just getting by.
and that's probably the best way to be because it's no one's business how much money they have or i have , and when you speak to someone it's not about money it's just about talking to another person
but you can always tell a wealthy client of mine from a poor one because of their mannerism's and outlook on life
the wealthier one's don't think that life is over and everything is shit
and they usually have a different approach to problems and how they speak
but yeah, they usually don't broadcast how much money they have
FUN LITTLE FACT
Most people that poor people see as being rich, Realistically in their bank account at any time have around $30,000 - $40,000
the level below that is when they have $5,000 saved
(that's all it really takes to step up a little)
then you have your lawyers and things, you would think they have millions
they don't, they generally have a bank account balance of between
$100,000 - $300,000
When i learned this, i found this very interesting
then you have people who have in excess of 1 Million
so as you can see.. it doesn't fucking matter how much they have because a person who has $30,000 can come off as a millionaire anyway
You can make big money in that racket! You'll also give yourself a heart attack/stroke at a very early age.
And for the short period you make good money, it all goes to the lawyers.
What movie is this?!?!?!
Not sure if I'm interested in that
other than a few miserable musicians that signed their lives away. Ive never met an unhappy rich person. Life is the greatest thing ever "cherish every moment"lol. money is the secret to being happy
I like the part where he says the F-word.

Unironically? Yes. Boys were taught how to shoot and maintain rifles, throw grenades, create defensive entrenchments, survive in the wilderness, march in a parade with elegant efficiency, operate as a unit, fight with their hands and daggers, and even had introductions to the military like riding in tanks and armored cars with the Wehrmacht and shooting artillery pieces.
The indoctrination to fight and die for the Reich aside (honestly, every nation's boys should be inspired to struggle for its survival), the boys learned self- and collective-discipline, duty, hygiene, valor, teamsmanship, sportsmanship, athletic improvement, civic labor, and overall toughness (they'd get the boys into groups and just let them have at one another like a giant brawl and you'd be applauded for holding their own and taking scars, bumps, and bruises).
Boys would work together, fight together, toil together, suffer together, and achieve together in a brutally realist way the Boy Scouts could only dream of and every German vet I've talked to looked back on their time in the HY with yearning and pride.
It made strong, civically-minded, courageous boys with a hardened identity, camaraderie, and identity at a time when they needed direction and structure the most.
If America had the right regime and a comparable program, I'd put my own children in. Before it got gay and effeminate, the BSA was the best part of my youth and I made so many friends but, it didn't go far enough and has since succumbed to Leftist decay.
Nah, everything to a libtard "JOO" is "HItler" or "Hitlerjudgend". The ol' Swastika holds a prominent place in their demented psyches.

I've taught 3rd grade. This joker wouldn't make it a week in the classroom. Those 8 year olds would crying like a baby the first day and he'd quit by Thursday 😅
Why would you be making other people Lexus "payments' - you pose to be filthy rich - should be able to just buy them a couple.
Thank God stock brokers don’t exist anymore :-)
But they do, Very much so
Trading Floors Exist
hell.. Even Paper trading exists (in some places)
what doesn't exist anymore is a noisy trading floor where people yell Reeeeeeeeeeecckkkkooo
now it's so quite that you can hear a bee fart
They've been replaced with "financial advisors", taking 1-2% (or more) of your wealth every year. Careful kids....
Oh, you are so, so wrong my friend.
There are tens of thousands of "broker" firms that milk the fuck out of naive/greedy people all around the world.
A poor man's Glengarry Glen Ross Alec Baldwin Scene

"Liquid?!?" Brotha!!
So…a lot of people seemed to like this. I have worked with people like this and they’re gross. I don’t admire any of this. It’s so fake. It’s narcissistic. I would have walked out.
RIP
What a great speech, its on par with Baldwin's in Glen Gary
Forget this movie. Watch Glengarry Glen Ross [1992].
Everyone should watch this movie to learn to spot the bullshit.
Stay away from any company that doesn't interview you 1v1.
Glengarry Glenn Ross was far superior.
Well....that's like..your opinion man
sounds like my old recruiters speech to new poolies about making it to the meets lmfao

I am not here to waste your time, rich because he just wasted the time of the legit broker.
I don’t work for you no more 🎉
🎶 I need you like Ben Affleck
needs acting school,
He was terrible in this film
I need you like Vin Diesel
needed a bigger part,
He's way better than Ben Affleck
and now... 🎶
First 3 months you're homeless 😂.

150 a week in 1997 is amazing
LOL, it was not amazing. It wasn’t even good.My apartment in a medium sized town in Florida was $750/month back then. Inflation calculator puts that to the equivalent of $285 today.
@@chrish7830 aparments are 750-1100 in florida now lol
@@madaneoulix1312 $1100 is miles away from $750. You’ll live in a shithole for $750.
You’re wrong. Want to know why you’re wrong? The minimum wage in 1997 was $5.15 an hour. If you worked 40 hours per week, that’s $206 per week, before taxes. Your argument that $150 per week was amazing is the equivalent of saying “29 hours per week at minimum wage is amazing.” It’s not. And no delusions of yours will say it is. All you need to know is the minimum wage for 1997. Teens working at grocery stores and fast food we’re making more than $150 per week.
Wannabe Glengarry Glen Ross Alec Baldwin speech
Exactly what I thought the first time I watched this movie.
Wee R criminals...anyway...😊
Afleck is really overrated
This is horrible
I'd like to hear a version of this scene comprised of only women.
What’s overlooked here is being a fucking millionaire in NYC isn’t shit. It definitely won’t buy you that Ferrari and house in the South Fork. That requires multi millions.
thats smart kick anyone smart enough to already be a broker out so they nobody in the room has the info to point out its bs
BEN NEVER SITS DOWN?
Power move, the guy is hooked on that stuff, and it is much stronger than any dope you can buy.
He's obviously sitting on the bottom of his feet. That's why it looks like he's standing up.
he did in the batmobile
I think you missed later in the movie when he talks to them again. "When you're on the phone, get up. Move around. Motion creates emotion."
Ripping people off and ruining peoples lives making money while doing it
Sorry, Ben Afflek acting tough is like watching Webster play Mike Tyson.
Man has Jennifer lopez constantly coming back to him so he must be doing something right lmao

@@Unfluencer Didn't act tough in that one, exactly why it's one of his few, if not only, good role.
This is just like the sales pitch we got for Cutco kitchen ware. The hiring managers entire speech depended on us wanting to go to the annual year end top sales party in Vegas. He promised us cash, girls and other things he cant not mention cause its vegas.
Unfortunately, a lot of Cutco "managers" are early 20s, and have no idea what real success looks like. I worked 3 years for Cutco around 20 years ago. I had an amazing manager who taught me the sales skills I needed in my next business. I didn't become a millionaire selling Cutco, almost no one does. However, Cutco gave me the skills I needed to become a millionaire in the financial services business I started after Cutco.
I loved CUTCO
@seizetheday2890 honestly I loved their knives and my favorite are the scissors. The manager we had at the time was real young guy probably like 21 and got a branch of his own for hitting high numbers.
I went through the whole procedure of such a company. First the "group interviews" then more one on one. After 2 weeks of back and forth it dawned me that the company needed new recruits to get their friends and families to become clients. I fucked off luckily before embarrassing myself by bringing along a bunch of acquaintances
Did they tell you to bring $100?
@@karoliskevalas752 no it never came to that. It was however crazy that they wanted me to bring friends and family as clients.
Oh and all of this without a contract. The contract wouod be signed in 2-4 months depending onhow many clients i brjng
I honestly never even knew Bellevue had a Lockjaw Ward
