Movie review. Yesterday I had looked a fresh Hollywood film called "Plan B". Generally speaking the film wasn't impressed me very much. I had hoped to see something like the well-known popular thriller " Wall Street ", but I didn't note anything similar. To my extreme wonder I didn't see in the movie bright exciting personages, intense action, unexpected plot twists. If to speak in a nutshell, the film doesn't have a complicated intrigue. All actions of the picture flow slowly, gradually and I would say predictably. Substantially the film is a detailed chronology of how things had happened right before US mortgage crisis in 2008. We see on the screen two groups of people who are financiers, investors, traders and top managers of large banks. A small one of the two groups realized very well the mortgage crisis was inevitable and tried to earn extra money on it. Another group opposite was absolutely convinced that mortgage crisis will never be at all trying to sell a huge amount of mortgage bonds were not secured by anything. As usual, the losers were ordinary people who trusted their honestly earned money to the bankers. Moral of the story is quite simple and understandable. There is nothing in the world that could be able to have the absolute value all the time. At the present time it is very important for all people not to trust blindly the sweet promises of bankers and have a critical look at current events. Although the film is difficult to understand because there is a lot of specific terms like mortgage bonds or credit default swap I can recommend seeing it. It is worth investing the time in doing it.

Happy New Year ! Happy New Year to everybody ! Good luck and strong health to everybody in coming year ! And, of course, much money ! Do you have to do and be that as it may !

Beware Of Scammers ! I think that there is no secret for everyone when I say fraudulence as a kind of crime is widespread now like never before. It is an obvious thing to explain because amount of money in the world is getting more and more year in year out so a number of scammers is growing fast accordingly. You can meet scammers out of a clear sky everywhere - on the street, in the shop, in internet, in other public places and even in the church. These dishonest and devoid of conscience people may telephone you and outrageously come into your house. They are trying to sell cheap substandard things or devices under various pretexts, using your trust, inattention and sometimes your greediness. In other words they sell you a regular falsification. Scammers fake everything - food, clothing, drugs, electronics and even pets. As a result we pay money, earning hard, for the things that cost nothing. Even worse when scammers falsify alcoholic drinks, using alcohol-based liquid which is very harmful for human health and substantially it is just a poison. About one month ago many people in my country were killed after they had drank cheap whiskey that has been bought on the internet. Those people were not confused by the low price of this product whereas real whiskey in 3 or 4 times is more expensive than fake one. It is actually they don't really understand this situation cannot be true in the modern world. Human stupidity and greed win common sense. Considering all of the above people should not be so lightheaded and gullible not to fall for the bait of scammers. Anytime and anywhere keep in mind the Murphy's law " Anything that can go wrong will go wrong ".

A Birthday That Will Remain In My Mind Forever. Likely, it will not be exaggeration to say that a birthday in the life of everyone is the most desirable and expected event each year.

Closer to midnight, when a cafe started to shut down, we decided to go to a night club to continue a fun party. On Friday after midnight all night clubs have been as a rule jam-packed with frequenters. We arrived at one of the famous night clubs, took a free table and went on this fun party. Alcohol drinks, muted lights and loud music had made us absolutely relaxed and even extremely self-confident. When I was dancing with my girlfriend, suddenly I heard some noise behind me. I had turned around and tried to seen in the flickering light what was happened. To my surprise I realized that one unknown guy attacked my friend Andrey. He brandished his big fists before Andrey's face trying to hit my friend on the head. At that moment I had clearly understood that something wrong had happened. But there was no time to think of it. It was needed urgently to make some actions on purpose to help my friend. That is why I had jumped on that guy and knocked him off down. At the same moment some bodies dropped from above on me. A great turmoil was started in the dance hall. Girls cried loudly, everywhere was heard the sound of breaking glass, inverted tables and chairs. When I got out of this heap of bodies fallen on me, the fight was proceeding everywhere. One girl ran up to me and kicked me on the knee of my left leg. The matter was the guy came to the night club with his girl and friends who had supported him in the fight while my friends and I stood up for Andrey immediately. As a result, it started a fight that is called " wall against wall " in Russian slang. After about fifteen minutes security had appeared in the dance hall and separated us. As it turned out, a cause of the incident was that big guy seemed somehow Andrey
