Aspiring Solicitors Commercial Awareness Competition

Love The Big Short!

If you're interested in financial crisis films I'd highly recommend: Margin Call (excellent drama with Kevin Spacey), Inside Job (very good documentary on the causes) and Too Big to Fail (documentary on the responses to the crisis).

Thank you!! Will definitely check them out!

Hi George,

That sounds great!

 

[Jaysen]

If you guys would like a private aspiring solicitors group (so you can arrange/discuss things) just let me know!

 

[George]

Hey guys,

Thats great! Is everyone free tomorrow at around 2 for the call? Later today at around 6 works as well. I was kind of just thinking an informal skype session to discuss recent topics in the news

 

[gricole]

Yes, tomorrow 2 is fine.

Does everyone just want to put their skype addresses on this forum. I cant work out how to personally message anyone

Click on a user's avatar and then "start a conversation". You can then add more people to the convo if you wish.



Edit: Added this box next to everyone's avatar so it's easier to start a convo:
