These days a few of my friends acused me of having lost my sense of humour. So i thought it right to post a collection of my favourite financial crisis jokes. Everything on tv these days seems so troubling i think we all need a bit of a laugh :). Even according to psychologists, at times of crisis, humour can provide a vital way of expressing frustration at a baffling situation.
Here they go in no particular order. Maybe you can name your favourites and i will order them after. Or even better, suggest your ones.
- I went to an ATM today, and it asked to borrow a twenty till next week.
- This is worse than a divorce. I’ve lost half my net worth and I still have a wife.
- The crisis is so bad that even Chuck Norris can’t make money
- Q: Why are all MBAs going back to school? A: To ask for their money back.
- Record unemployment levels have been announced today as the credit crunch tightens its grip. Icelandic bank robbery is reported to be among the worst hit sectors.
- In Japan in the last 7 days the Origami Bank has folded, the Sumo Bank has gone belly up and the Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut some of its branches.
- In America, banks rob people because that is where the money is!
- This shipping market is so bad…that the only guys taking ships are the Somalians
- A man went to his bank manager and said: ‘I’d like to start a small business. How do I go about it?’ ‘Simple,’ said the bank manager. ‘Buy a big one and wait.’
- Equally weighted $1000/stock purchase last year of AIG, Lehman, Fannie and Freddie would leave you today with about $55. Mere $1000 investment in beer at same point would have left you with something like $200 from return deposits/recycling. Moral of story – Screw stock market, drink heavily and recycle!!!
