The one I recommend has something to do with stocks: "The Boiler Room"

The plot is as follows: The core office of the J.T. Marlin Brokerage Company is called the "boiler room" by employees. Don’t underestimate this place – 20 millionaires can be born here in one night! It is in this "boiler room" that scrappy young brokers sell stocks over the phone to buyers who deeply trust them and help them trade stocks. And they were rewarded with luxury apartments, Ferraris and more lavish gifts than they could even imagine. In the ordinary land of Long Island, in the "boiler rooms" of countless brokerage companies, Generation X is realizing their dreams at an alarming speed, but sometimes they are just one step away from the law...

19-year-old Seth Davis was originally an ordinary person. He has only two dreams in his life: because his family is in a poor situation, he hopes to earn a million in the future; and because his father has always looked down on him since he was a child, he hopes that when he can make his father look at him differently and respect him, . How can these two dreams be realized? At first, Seth planned to start a business by playing an illegal card game with others, but he soon discovered that this path was not feasible at all. Finally, he decided to take a legal path: join J.T. Marin Brokerage Company to become an agent, because the company promised to provide him with the "quickest path to success."

Feeling jealous. He also starts dating Debbie, the company's receptionist.

In fact, it's stocks they don't need at all, and they make huge profits from them.

However, when Seth saw that his colleagues were getting richer and richer, while those innocent customers were getting poorer and poorer, his conscience made him unable to remain silent any longer. At the same time, he also began to suspect that J.T. Marin Brokerage Company itself was conducting ulterior illegal operations. Facing the FBI's request for cooperation, Seth realized that he was in danger of losing everything - not only might he lose his friends, his job, and the million-dollar salary promised to him by the company, but also his father's trust. ! Should he listen to the call of conscience or continue the dirty life of the past? Seth is torn between good and evil...
