I was at my parent's house while the TV was playing idly when this ad came on and immediately everyone stopped in their tracks and watched. Congrats to to the team who put this together. This is a great advertisement, as a filmmaker, I can't like this enough. Give whoever's responsible a raise ;)
/watch?v=WDwTQ57YyzI ud dig this movie
Totally agree. Great story.
@AMWF lololol
Yep, it's pretty perfect. That is, of course, putting aside the fact that advertising is ethically dubious at its core
Such an annoying ad
Although the ads are annoying this isn't even bad at all!
It’s annoying
It's very annoying to me
@@TheFunnyGuy9000 your opinion is irrelevant
@@AH-lx5nj your opinion is irrelevant
@@RawDogTV so
Everytime this ad comes up I would watch it until the end cuz this ad is so well-made!
Beware. They charge 1.5% convert fee for US stocks! Stay away from WS!
Is this a real story? Mike the CEO is god
Exactly
I must admit... I do too.
Yeah.
A nearly perfect piece of advertising. Beautifully made. A story that keeps you watching until the very end. And most important, the people who created it have their finger placed precisely on the pulse of the zeitgeist in a way that resonates with younger potential clients. As a result, it ranges across income inequality, the 1%, women taking control of their financial futures, diversity and more, all with the help of a protagonist who is an unabashed outsider and socially concerned iconoclast. The ad touches all of the right buttons in just the right way to promote the product in a manner that doesn't feel like promotion. It sells without making you feel you've been sold. Advertising at its best.
Mhm
@@revupofficial ?
Are you a fucking bot or just a moron?
I always look for this comment whenever I come back to this video. Such a perfect description of the appeal of this ad!
Something tells me you are an english teacher.
I don't belive I've ever searched out an Ad on RUclips just to rewatch it several times. 🤔 Who ever came up with this deserves a raise, same with the composer/pianist.
They worked with ballad.co for the music apparently.
Hi! im the kid actor who played young mike in this commercial. I just wanted to say that i loved working for you guys and how every single last person back stage was amazing. Thank you for the opportunity you gave me, you all are so awesome! Even though it was around 3 and a half years ago when we shot this, i still remember every last detail. You guys are so cool, i hope your company continues to grow.
also i still remember the impact from that ball at 0:31 lol
Really? Wow nice work. They should turn this into a film of its own
yesirr Mike
I’m one since October 2018 and I couldn’t be more proud of my decision to be with Wealthsimple! Thanks for existing !! Much love from Montreal ❤️
Welathsimple ads are next level
Is this ad based on a real story? If its true props to the CEO doing good for the world
@@tz7710 yeah it's the story of the boss of wealth-simple
@@marceloo_2714 he's flexing his story
@@tz7710 i know right ?! But idk he seems humble and cool
This ad is spam
The boy playing “young Mike” is fantastic!
meeliebugg its funny because he is in my class
@@lulu962 haha is he really smart and nerd?
김동준 kinda lol😂😂
I agree
calm down, priest
It's refreshing seeing quality ads, love the voice over, she sounds amazing! More of her please.
Tired of watching DIY RUclips ads where some guy yells at you that you should invest like them to get a million $ in JUST ONE DAAAAAAAY~~!
Do more master classes! Those are fun and informative. Thank you.
Who wrote this song it’s really catchy
Thats why im here :/ tryna figure it
ruclips.net/video/rqPnDMBzM5k/видео.html
Here is the song
@@wyrmwood4594 wtf no it isnt
@@ArminGamer ok so you can’t look it up on your own,ruclips.net/video/f6Of1D1-WkY/видео.html
@@wyrmwood4594 Thank you so much !!!
"We own this town!" Had me laughing
I love this ad so much. You know it’s getting bad when I can recite the entire thing from memory…
1:01 “Then Mike had a very Mike idea....” I love that 😂
Fun fact: the company name at 0:50 is “michael & michael & michael” 😂😂
Oh shit! I saw that but I didn’t register I until you said it. 😂😂
This is absolutely incredible! Hats off to the wealthsimple team and Michael Katchen for creating such an extraordinary technology.
I had to look up the ad. If I see one more ad by wealthsimple, I'm going to make sure the poor stay poor and the rich get richer
Finally, someone who is isn't financing this damn company.
I never skip this ad 😂
I agree. Btw Man Utd are the best
@@revupofficial you bet!
I always skip this ad. It's annoying as hell and pops up on every video I watch. I hate this goddamn ad.
You know the ad is actually good when you're enjoying a nice buzz and the ad completely entrances you 🤣
No it doesnt
2 years later and I suddenly remembered this ad. Great stuff.
I'm here for this song... I agree with everyone else, release this song!
One of the only commercials I do not skip! Good job
damn i really want the song in this.
SAME !
IKR
just use shazam
@@whatshoulditypehere1961 doesn't work
@@whatshoulditypehere1961 Shazam’s pretty shit quality now sadly
Everyone who wants this song to be released like this comment so hopefully they release it
Thanks for the interest - we love the song too! We worked with Ballad.co to make this tune.
@@wealthsimple Will you ever release it?
@@wealthsimple Release the God damn song. The world needs it and your negligence is causing us all extreme anxiety.
We need the song.
This song is a fucking jam
“ Mike was sort of...A NERD” LOOOOL BEST PART 😂
I watch this as like everyday cuz of the song
What is this movie called? Can’t wait to watch it. Lol, got excited with the ad
stranger than fiction with Will Ferrell... check it.. this adds a complete rip off..
where can i find the background music? the piano sound great!
We worked with the team at Ballad.co to develop the music but unfortunately don't have a link to the song! Glad you enjoyed!
The song is so nice, please release it to the public
@@wealthsimple has it been released yet? I love it
@@wealthsimple please release rhe song!
@@wealthsimple release the song. Sell some shares to make it happen!
The direction and music is absolutely beautiful, be proud of this
I just did a report on Michael Katchen and WealthSimple and this ad was my inspiration thx:)
Brilliant! I cut the big bank commission cord and moved my portfolio to WST.
Wealthsimple we know where you sleep. Don't hide the music from us!
🤣 lol ikr
I SEARCHED FOR AN HOUR! The director, the company, the publisher and STILL, WHAT IS THE SONG??!!?
Omg same.
Brooooooooooos i fucking feel you. Looked at another add give me "stand on the word" "the Joubert singers". Good jam, tho I honestly feel like it's just a progression made for this add
I feel like this would be an awesome movie, wealth simple you have made the best ad I’ve seen so far, brilliant
I like this story
Thanks for watching! 💛
@@wealthsimple no, just stop
I sent it to my dad. He's one of the 457k Mikes in Canada 😂
I literally clicked on this ad at the top of my RUclips page cuz the ad is so good
Samee
Who is doing the voiceover?
Sounds like Judi Dench
Sounds like the girl from jamesbond
This is a great ad. I loved watching it!
idk why this ad keeps showing me every time when i watch youtube! it's not even related !
this is so annoying! We have lockdown here and it's so cold outside!
and that woman keeps saying "u should get out more" "get out!" til it'll be able to skip...........grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I always have to watch this ad when it comes on because its so good dude
I don't know what's wrong with RUclips but the only commercial ad that they show me is this one, constantly and I'm sick and tired of it I hear this commercial like five + times a day when I'm trying to listen to music etc on RUclips, because they think that I care about wealth simple. Please RUclips stop sending me this stupid commercial I don't want to hear Mike's story over 1500 times. It was ok the first time but after hundreds of times.. enough is enough
Looks like I’m late again. Great commercial, don’t know why it took me so long to finally just come here and watch the video rather than just watching through the entire ad every time it comes on.
We are here just for the song...
I've played this add so much cause of the song, I don't even know what the add actually looks like. Killer progression
I am just like Mike! Except for the making a successful company part.
the music is so good
finally, a good commercial song instead of the same "inspirational" soulless songs with the same goddamn chord progression.
who kindly tell me which ad company produced this advertisement? that is really a valuable company 👍
Who is the voice actress? She's great!
One of few ads I often watch. It's like a mini movie and not annoying like other ads that just shove the product in your face.
The only ad I’ll fully watch.
This is Mike saying I love this ad
Can y’all release this song..it’s so catchy
When ever this ad comes I watch it all the time ti the end
Thats weird, because when this add comes on for me, It makes me want to mute my volume and face down my phone.
This ad plays so much it makes me never want to explore using WealthSimple. I realize ads work but if you park an ad in front of my RUclips video and make me watch it over and over, you're setting the scene for a tragedy. Instead of paying money to get me to use your service, you're paying money to get me to not use it.
I like the music.
awesome ad!
That's me up to 0:31, but instead of finance, I'ma make a game company.
I am also a Mike
best of luck!
These people made that very catchy ad
Also I searched this up and the second i left i got this ad
Thanks Mike!
I thought that this was a trailer for a movie when I first saw this ad. Would’ve made a hell of a film if they actually did it
"I knew I had to do my own research!" Lol
This is truly epic, my friends the young Mike.
All comments are bots it’s confirmed. This commercial is the reason I will not use wealth simple
best story ever
amazing job, ad and production team!
Are these all bot comments? This ad has is so damn annoying.
No, it's just that this ad was made with a lot of effort and that means that a lot of people watch and enjoy it
@@seamusfeng3610 sure
Can confirm, not a bot. Genuinely love this ad. Obsessed with the music. No joke. Not a bot.
Yeah ngl the ad is pretty well made
My first trading app. So easy to use!
The amount of time this ad is being forced onto me is borderline harassment
Agreed, I didn't mind the ad at first but I've ended up seeing this ad 80% of the time on all videos over the past month or two. At this point it's annoying and dreadful.
Agree.
That dry raspy British lady voiceover narrated this is rather mesmerizing.
i like when Mike was walking to get his Troop🏆 good job Mike!👏🏼
why thank you!
can we please take a moment of silence for all the Mikes with the last name Hunt?
Mike is the smartest person ever..
Like if you agree
Thanks Mike.. Because of you I have a 11K zero commission trading account and 135 RUclips subscribers :)
I will never use your product simply because I was listening to music and you needed to put in a full length song AD in my playlist!!! Moderation...GAWD
This is a great ad, good work whoever made it. Actually entertaining to watch, very rare for an ad. Also, love the attention to detail.
the animated preroll ads are not ideal. cannae we use this ad instead?
My names Mike and im from Canada. This is my story.
wow this advertisement is so good, whichever agency/team who did this knows the client base very well and didn't rehash the same nonsense most other F.Is use.
True.
Love the song xD
This ad is sooo good
Imagine half a million Mikes kick rocks barefoot at the same time.
I can't lie, I rewatch this over and over for the music
Great ad, well put together!
Awesome Mike😊
Amazing ad!
i watched this on loop for an hour
U got a lot of time in your hands
Genious commercial. I like it. Good story. Like the voice,
that grandma is such a karen
Karen's an anti white slur.
I was one of the actors on set and got the opportunity to meet her. She was actually such a nice person! Honestly one of the nicest people ive met
I can't stop watching this video lol
Very creative
spending all these years inside in front of the computer ,Mike now is a billionaire but lonely with no friends and doesnt know how to socialize either. covid doesnt make any difference for Mike
I love this ad. I always come back tonit
Are you high?
@@xMrRAGER6 LOL no I love ads
Yes, and this is exactly why people advocate against unrestrained capitalism.
You clearly don’t know what “capitalism” is and are confusing it with corporatism, but that’s what happens when you fall for the insidious sirens song that is socialism.
@@fagozi Maybe there is a slight difference with whatever jargon you're putting forward here but we were capitalist once. It naturally gets this way, I don't see any point in the distinction.
Who's the actor? What's his name?
M I K E
Who? if you're talking about young mike, thats me. If you mean the older mike, i think his name was Jeff but im not sure
This has so much meme potential
Go Mikey ‼️‼️‼️
I like how she says Mike is a nerd
