We're suckers for a John Williams and Steven Spielberg collab ... but turns out that we were ALL suckers when we watched this movie. Because this film - allegedly based on Frank Abagnale's real cons - is actually just based on Frank Abagnale's lies. None of his claims have been verified and in fact have been directly contradicted. But the completely fictional story of this film is nevertheless compelling and full of great money tidbits. We talk about how confidence affects which jobs we apply for, how checking accounts affect credit scores, and whether appearances affect banks' credit decisions or your success in life overall.
