haha, funniest movie ever. I saw it with my x-gf a few years back.
Anyway, a couple weeks back (I think for thanksgiving), my whole family was at my grandma's and my mom mentioned that she wanted to bring over a christmas movie and watch it at my apartment. I told her bad santa was a great movie. She got all excited until my brother spilled the beans about what kind of movie it was. My master plan was foiled.

I say onto you, I've felt the dragon! I felt the touch of his tail, the breath of his fire, and I know without a shadow of a doubt that the dragon exists!

The movie is a true story of a man named Christopher Gardner who
overcame insurmountable odds in life and became a very successful
broker in Wall Street. It is an inspirational movie without failing to
neglect the soft spot of the poor in the man. Gardner shows his goodwill and determination by helping the needed people of South Africa. According to his Biography. I quote:
"Which is why, on this October day, Gardner keeps working those phones.
It's why he's already begun writing his next book. It's why he's in talks with several networks about doing a primetime show, and why, earlier this year, he sold a minority stake in Gardner Rich to a major hedge fund. But most of all, it's why he's about to close a second round of financing -- reportedly to launch a private-equity fund focused solely on investments in South Africa."
