What I hated about this movie was all of the investors who were right and made a lot of money were all sad and seemingly embarrassed about profiting off of their ideas and conviction
That's for joe public movie-goer.
You think the public wants to see dudes slapping high fives profiting off of one of the biggest greedy blunder/scandals and financial crises that ruined people's lives?
The movie has to try and make these people likeable...otherwise, they're just another version of the same scam/scum.

I suspected as much and that's what pisses me off. These guys didn't sell any subprime loans or in any way grease the wheels of that industry - the opposite, in fact.
We should be celebrating financial success, not demonizing it.

well i can put this in another way
these guys "put up" when pointing out the greedy people profiting off a broken system were going to make it crash
the villains of the 2008 crisis were not the people telling everyone what was wrong with the system
