Stock market crash


I never fully understood the stock market. You have a bunch indicators, buying, selling, people yelling around, movies being made about it, people tripping... about it. But throughout it all there's a strange feeling related to it, something like gambling, even though it's a "science" and you need to know your shit.

That's what you get for speculating being stupid.
Anyway, a bunch of old men in suits got together one day to buy and sell stock while smoking indoors. This lead to the Wall Street Crash of 1929 ushering the era of Great Depression. It was a huge change from the "roaring twenties" where people would spend money and party like there's no tomorrow.
