Описание: The 2008 Financial Crisis in 12 Minutes (Casual Economics)

The 2008 Financial Crisis was the worst economic disaster and stock market crash in the last 60 years.

But what exactly went wrong, and how could such a disaster happen in modern times? In this video we uncover the 2008 financial crisis and key lessons we can learn from it.
