I am really into shows that revolve around the financial world. I have recently started watching Billions and succession, both the dramas are perfect for a trader to get motivated. The business related conversations that take place in these shows are simply amazing and hooks you in with the storyline and plot.
I have pretty mixed feelings on such shows. On one hand they're very fun, on the other hand, I prefer not to think about trading when I am relaxing and watching a show.
