The Prudential "Walkways" Commercial - Featuring.... WUSSY BOY

in commercial •  7 years ago 

If you watch TV every day, chances are good you've seen this Prudential commercial.

The setting is in a park along some waterfront near the city and they set up strips of what looks like parts of a recycled disco floor of square translucent floor panels that light up, as you step on each one, as you walk.

The Prudential spokeswoman poses the question, "How much money do you think you'll need in retirement?"

Then the people walk down each strip of light-up squares, until the floor panel lights up in YELLOW, which is when they hit the the number of years that amount of retirement money would last them.

Each square along the way will light up in BLUE as you have additional years of retirement money, based on your idea of how much you'll need.

Then enter - WUSSY BOY!

Right at the 0:22 mark, he takes his first step, and it stops him dead in his tracks with a YELLOW square! He laughs like a moron, and asks aloud, in a whiny-wussy voice, "HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?!"

And, I'm thinking,"because you're a financially-ignorant moron who doesn't understand money, math or finance."

Enjoy the commercial - featuring WUSSY BOY...
