"I'd basically love to stand here and say I had such a hard time researching this movie, people struggling economically but it wasn't the case," Ben told reporters. "Basically anywhere I went and we shot where I grew up in Massachusetts so I could just go to guys I went to high school with, guys that I grew up with. So many of them were dealing with some of that stuff and companies that were similar to the movie."

"It's everywhere," Ben added. "I'm sure of some you here could name someone who is struggling, losing their job, lower paying job, (struggling to) make the mortgage, on the verge."
