put meat on the table掙錢養家

Number one rule of Wall Street. Nobody... I don't care if you're Warren Buffett or if you're Jimmy Buffett. Nobody knows if a stock is gonna go up, down, sideways, or in fucking circles. - Least of all stockbrokers, right? - Mmm-hmm. It's all a fugazi. You know what a fugazi is? Uh. Fugayzi. It's a fake. Fugayzi, fugazi, it's a whazy, it's a woozy, it's... Fairy dust. It doesn't exist. It's never landed. It is no matter. It's not on the elemental chart. It's not fucking real. - Right? - Right. - Stay with me. - Mmm-hmm. We don't create shit. We don't build anything. No. So if you got a client who bought stock at 8 He wants to cash in, liquidate, take his fucking money and run home. - You don't let him do that. - Okay. - 'Cause that would make it real. - Right. No. What do you do? You get another brilliant idea. A special idea. Another "situation." Another stock to reinvest his earnings and then some. And he will, every single time. 'Cause they're fucking addicted. And you just keep doing this, again and again and again. Meanwhile, he thinks he's getting shit rich, which he is, on paper. But you and me, the brokers, we're taking home cold hard cash via commission, motherfucker.

華爾街第一法則。 沒人…… 我不管你叫沃倫·巴菲特還是吉米·巴菲特。 沒人知道一支股票會漲、會跌、會橫盤，還是會他媽原地打轉。 ——尤其股票經紀，對吧？——嗯哼。 全是唬人的。你知道什麼叫唬人嗎？ 呃，唬人？就是假的。 唬人、騙人，是虛的、是空的，是…… 仙塵。根本不存在。 從沒落地過，什麼都不是。 它在元素週期表上都找不到。 它他媽的根本不存在。 ——對吧？——對。 ——聽我說。——嗯哼。 我們什麼都不創造，什麼都不建造。 對。 所以要是你有個客戶在八塊錢買進了股票， 他想套現、清倉，拿著他的錢他媽跑回家。 ——你別讓他這麼幹。——好。 ——因為那就會變成真的。——對。 不。那你怎麼辦？ 你再想一個絕妙的點子。 一個特別的主意。 又一個「機會」。另一支股票，讓他把賺的錢再投進去，還得搭上更多。 而他每次都會上鉤。 因為他們他媽上癮了。 你就這麼一遍、一遍、又一遍地做下去。 與此同時，他以為自己要發大財了——賬面上確實如此。 但你跟我，做經紀的， 拿回家的是佣金換來的白花花現金，混蛋。

This is not a tip, this is a prescription. - Trust me. - Mmm-hmm. If you don't, you will fall out of balance, split your differential and tip the fuck over. Or worse yet, I've seen this happen, implode. No, I don't want to implode, sir. No. No, you don't. I'm in it for the long run, you know? - Implosions are ugly. - Yeah. Pop off to the bathroom, work one out any time you can. When you get really good at it, you'll fucking be stroking it and you'll be thinking about money.

這不是建議，這是處方。 ——信我。——嗯哼。 你要是不做，就會失去平衡， 差速器分裂，然後他媽翻車。 或者更糟， 這種事我見過，內爆。 不，我不想內爆，先生。 不。你當然不想。 我是要做長線的，懂嗎？ ——內爆很難看。——是啊。 一有機會就溜去洗手間，擼一發。 等你練到家了，你他媽一邊擼，一邊腦子裡想的全是錢。
