Funny Money.
Funny Money. We, Here at The-Art-Of-Small-Talk.com will share The Famous "Down Under" money side of the Global Financial Crises and the global question is "Where has it all gone?" "Show Me The Money" Who can forget Jerry Macquirer's catch phrase made so popurlar by Tom Cruise, married to our Darling Nicole Kidman for a while! Aussie comedy Icons who would share our endeavour to shed some light "funny Money" humor around, are Dame Edna and Crocedile Dundee, Paul Hogan (with his old face in tact!)
Paul Hogan has an ongoing fight with The Australian Taxation Department(viewed on The 60 Minutes Program.) Everything about the financial crisis need not be depressing. People are finding humour in the middle of the stocks meltdown, although punters, who have burnt their fingers and much more, would find it rude.
Consider this SMS that goes: "Markets are set to regain 20,000 mark... (But only if) Sensex, Nikkei and Hang Seng are put together at 5,000 points each, NYSE Composite at 1,000 points, Dow Jones Industrial Average at 3,500 and Nasdaq at 500 points." A Real Special Reading "How We Australians Are Making Money Online!" Get it NOW FREE! It's Fun!
There are also jokes online like "Black Mondays used to be a once-in-a-lifetime event. Now they are coming along more regularly than Sydney's Metro trains." Companies' balance sheets: "Assets are written on the left and liabilities on the right side. But, there is nothing left on the right and nothing is right on the left." Today's "Funny Money" Stock Market Report:
Helium was up, feathers were down. Paper was stationary. Fluorescent tubing was dimmed in light trading. Knives were up sharply. Cows steered into a bull market. Pencils lost a few points. Hiking equipment was trailing.
Elevators rose,while escalators continued their slow decline. Weights were up in heavy trading. Light switches were off. Mining equipment hit rock bottom. Diapers remain unchanged. Shipping lines stayed at an even keel. The market for raisins dried up. Coca Cola fizzled. Caterpillar stock inched up a bit. Sun peaked at midday. Balloon prices were inflated. And Scott Tissue touched a new bottom. And batteries exploded in an attempt to recharge the market...
Horses Bulls and Bears. He we are again cup day 2008, The great horse trainer "Bart " gets another, Across town( Australia's truly International Melbourne Cup Horse Race,That Stops A Nation Dead! First Tuesday in November.) Plenty of funny money washed clean this day! The Australian Federal reserve bank has sliced another .75 off interest rates, in hope not to stall the economy, but the beer drinking, pie eating punters at the race are saying bring it on !!....................we will put it on card !!
There is a lot of talk about the economy, inflation, deflation, margin calls, rah rah rah......it all comes down to one thing "Show Me The Money?"...........and what we do with it and what we do without it. Where does it all go? If we are spending it when we have it and spending it when we don't have,something goes crunch............CREDIT. I heard on the road the other day...............We are buying things we don't need with money we don't have, trying to impress people we don't know. Now that will confuse any man,women & child. Now since we are spending money we don't have, the people in charge are worried about, growth or "How many two dollar toys we are buying" 10 (AUD$) bucks gets you a lot some times........ 5 toys 2 net-balls/handballs 1 power drill 1 cricket bat ball and stumps 1 kilo of school prawns 8 litres of petrol or 1 litre of beer................................................Great country Australia ! But how much can we grow, we all have too much to carry...................................
