This movie was good in the sense that it covers the topic you think it is going to cover, and it does it pretty well. For anybody with any kind of debt, this movie just makes you feel stupid for having such debt. But you already knew that. You already knew you were an idiot for paying interest all your life.
I feel like an idiot. This movie is very effective in pouring salt in your wounds. It really doesn't make you feel better about yourself and your situation when you finish watching it.
If you have no debt and are everything Dave Ramsey wants you to be, you would probably watch this and be overwhelmingly glad that is not you. You'll be thankful you are financially responsible and you may not even realize how bad some people have dug themselves into debt. I talked to a very wealthy customer of mine a few weeks ago and he was talking about owning stock in Visa. He basically spoke lowly of anybody carrying a balance with Visa. Their loss was his opportunity to make money off the stock. I understand his sentiment, but I get the impression that he thinks that only the lowest of the low income earners carry such debt. He doesn't appear to realize that the middle class, upper middle class, and even people that earn high incomes are often debt carriers themselves. But he is out of touch. This movie should give him a better perspective on the debt problem with citizens of this country and just how bad it really is.
So if you are going to watch this and you have your share of debt, this is not a feel good movie. It is good covering the topic at hand but to a lot of us, this is a sore spot.
Debt carriers, it is sure to bring you down. Watch with caution.
