For this event, my choice is the 1992 production Mo’ Money , written by and starring Damon Wayans. This was one of the first films where I was introduced to the Wayans brothers. After this, I discovered more films with at least one of the talented siblings – The Last Boy Scout, Major Payne , White Chicks and many more.
The story boils down to this: poor boy meets rich girl, who is way out of his league. He works hard to make money to be able to impress her. He does this by using credit card information from deceased credit card holders. And of course – he’s caught!
Although this movie has received negative reviews and has a low Rotten Tomatoes ranking, I still find it quite an entertaining 90 minutes. Nothing too wonderful and great, but entertaining enough!

Billions is an American drama television series created by Brian Koppelman, David Levien, and Andrew Ross Sorkin. The series premiered on January 17, 2016, on Showtime and its seventh and final season premiered on August 13, 2023.
Set primarily in New York and Connecticut, the series depicts hedge fund manager Bobby Axelrod (Damian Lewis) as he accumulates wealth and power in the world of high finance. Axelrod's aggressive tactics frequently garner the attention of United States Attorney Chuck Rhoades (Paul Giamatti). Rhoades is based on Preet Bharara, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York in Manhattan from 2009 to 2017, and the series was inspired by real-life federal prosecutions of financial crime. Bharara's 2013 prosecution of hedge fund manager Steven A. Cohen of S.A.C. Capital Advisors loosely influenced the first season, while Salomon Brothers' 1991 manipulation of U.S. Treasury bonds inspired the second. Series subplots feature the psychiatrist turned performance coach Wendy Rhoades (Maggie Siff), market analyst Taylor Mason (Asia Kate Dillon), and Axelrod's right-hand man Mike "Wags" Wagner (David Costabile).
As the first American TV series to have a non-binary character (Taylor Mason), it has been nominated multiple times for the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Drama Series for its representation of the LGBTQ community.

a lot of movies end up being about money... so it's a hard category with a wide choice of great movies... I am going to pick a classic brit gangster flick "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" (1998) - Directed by Guy Ritchie, this crime comedy showcases a group of friends who find themselves entangled in a convoluted web of illegal activities, debt, and a high-stakes card game. It brilliantly captures the gritty underbelly of London's criminal world. it involves a plan to steal a lot of cash and a lot of weed... the cast is brilliant and the soundtrack amazing... one of my favourites.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HY7mRdQuUSw
This is one vigilante film everyone should check out. Y’all know The Equaliser and John Wick, so I won’t go there. Another one of my favourite films is NOBODY. It's easy to believe that apparently, this film shares a screenwriter and a director with John Wick.
A Perfect Murder: A wealthy Wall Street speculator discovers that his wife has a lover. He investigates him and uses the carrot and stick to make him murder his wife.
I pick this movie because 3 of my favorite actors are on this movie...

Hello beautiful people 😍 it's yo boy
This is my entry for the #HumpdayAndChill activity by
The best movie I know that is centered around money is the the netflix series "Money heist" which the very first episode was released on 2 May 2017, on Spanish network Antena 3. I don't know about the publisher but I really loved the whole story and how someone can select not just anyone but people who are top skilled in their field of work, who work together using a single person's idea and making it out successfully.
The part that made me conclude the gang in the series was stilling but they do still they use that very money as a distraction to escape.

Around one and half year earlier a watched movie , The Debt, . It was a sensational movie by Oliver about money and relationships.
https://youtu.be/sfDcqfRiJZU?si=sC0h_U6MkZkjpaIf
What I learnt that money not superior all the times , relationships are more important then it . We can survive without money but can't live without relationships.
