    This is a great course about the financial crisis of 2008.

    They walk through the similarities between the Irish bailout and the American bailout of their banks and then they walk through the differences and point out why the Irish bailout turned out soo poorly and why the American bailout was a great success.

    The course is very approachable for even a novice in monetary theory.
