The fallout of the last Backbone View's render method

MyView.js

var MyView = Backbone.View.extend({
  
  initialize: function() {
    //Adding an event here that causes problems:
    this.model.on('change', this.render, this);
  },
  
  render: function() {
    this.$el.append( /* some HTML */ ); 
    $('#content').append(this.el);
  }
  
});
 
new MyView().render();
