Laughs

Hello

They say laughter is the best medicine, after all.

True story: The scene is a conference of professors of marketing. The key note speaker is an eminent economist. The chairman, who sees himself as a bit of a wag, says,

"I would like to introduce my eminent colleague and friend. He's an economist, one of those people who turn random numbers into mathematical laws."

The economist, not to be out done, replies,

"My friend, here, is a marketer. They reverse the process."

An economist is someone who doesn't know what he's talking about - and make you feel it's your fault.

True Incident

I was riding my bike down a hill in my city one night and two policemen stopped me at their speed trap.

They asked me how fast I was going - 63 km - and congratulated me on the accuracy of my speedo.

They then asked me why I was not driving a car and as I was a woman, wasn't it dangerous to be be out at night on a bike.

I said I did not drive a car. They then asked me my occupation -
I said "an economist".

One of the policemen said "That's why she's riding a bike - she's economising"

True Incident

knew that economics is ruling my life when

- I tried to calculate my 3 year old son's discount rate by seeing how many sweets he would require to be promised to him after dinner to be equivalent to one sweet before dinner

- I spent one hour in a toy shop making up over 20 bundles of toys that could be purchased for $25 and then asked my son to select one of these bundles

Bill and Boris are taking a break from a long summit, Boris says to Bill, -Bill, you know, I have a big problem I don't know what to do about. I have a hundred bodyguards and one of them is a traitor. I don't know which one. -Not a big deal Boris, I'm stuck with a hundred economists I have to listen to all the time before any policy decision, and only one tells the truth but it's never the same one.

Businessman on His Death Bed

A businessman on his death bed called his friend and said, "Bill, I want you to promise me that when I die you will have my remains cremated." "And what," his friend asked, "do you want me to do with your ashes?"

The businessman said, "Just put them in an envelope and mail them to the Internal Revenue Service and write on the envelope, "Now you have everything."
