Here senior editor Paddy Hirsch explains with the help of a whiteboard (hence the name) and some simple and easy to understand metaphors all kind of concepts from high-frequency trading to credit default swaps. If you are a newcomer to the world of finance / investment, this is a great resource which will make it possible for you to understand more and more of the concepts and the discussion which is going on around them.

Usually I find Southpark videos a little too preachy / childish, but this too funny. You can watch the full episode here.

After it you can enjoy some Pink Floyd 🙂
