Investment jokes

1. If you buy $1,000 worth of beer, drink it all, and then send the remaining cans to the recycling bin, you can get back $214. Based on the above facts, the best investment strategy right now is to drink beer and recycle cans. 2. At a friend's party, the organizer said to me: "The brother sitting next to you became a millionaire because of speculation in PetroChina." I immediately admired him. Everyone knows that PetroChina was listed at 48 yuan and eventually cut in half. With a price of more than 10 yuan per share, he is so awesome? I quickly asked for advice. The brother next to him had a blank expression on his face, paused and said, "Before the oil speculation, I was a billionaire..." 3. The origin of the saying "There is no free lunch" was first put forward by the economics master Friedman. Its original meaning is that even if you don't have to pay to eat, you still have to pay the price. Because the time you spend eating this meal can be used to do other things, such as negotiating a 1 million business deal. If you use your time to eat this meal, you will lose the value that it originally had. This is the concept of opportunity cost. Did you know it before? 4. In the economics joke class, the professor taught economics: "What is the primary industry? Feed cattle and raise sheep. What is the secondary industry? Kill cattle and slaughter sheep. What is the tertiary industry? Eat beef and drink sheep soup." Yes The student asked: "So, what about the cultural industry?" The professor's eyes lit up: "That's a good question! You are indeed a good student of mine." Then he replied: "The so-called cultural industry is just bragging and showing off!" 5. Poor people's tax There is a saying in economics called "poor man's tax". The most typical thing is that most people who buy lottery tickets are poor (brothers who often buy lottery tickets don't mind). This is a tax that can achieve a dramatic increase in wealth within the scope of their affordability and payment ability. There is a rare chance, but the probability of winning the lottery is small after all. In the long run, if the water flows steadily, more money goes out and less money comes in, then it is considered as paying taxes. 6. Pareto distribution: Arrange the wealth owned by everyone in the world from large to small. On one side is a slender but towering head, and on the other side is a long, endless, low and despairing tail. This kind of distribution is called "Pareto distribution" in economics. 7. Non-profit investment "Please give an example of what non-profit investment is." asked the economics professor. "Take your sister out to play." A male student replied. 8. The concept of mate selection. An American economist published a paper analyzing the concept of mate selection from a transactional perspective. If men and women are divided into four levels of excellence, ABCD, then the current situation is that man A wants to find woman B, man B wants to find woman C, and man C wants woman D, so only man D is left. On the contrary, the situation is different for women, that is, women ABCD all want to find man A. The final result is that female A and male D are left. There is a case in economics: two people encounter a bear in the forest, then the opponent will not be a bear! Just one step faster than the other person wins. 9. Gambling and chasing girls. If four boys are chasing a beautiful girl, then she will definitely put on airs and no one will pay attention to her. At this time, if a boy pursues another girl, others will not accept it, because no one wants to be a defective product. However, if the four of them chase other girls first, the pretty girl will be isolated, and it will be much easier to chase her again. 10. The Four Principles of Pleasure and Pain: Picking up 75 yuan at a time, or picking up 50 yuan first and then 25 yuan, which one should you choose? Which one do you choose between losing 75 yuan at a time or losing 50 yuan first and then 25 yuan? Experiments have shown that most candidates pick up ￥75 separately and throw ￥75 together. This is the four principles of happiness and pain in economics: ①n good news should be released separately; ②n bad news should be released together; ③A big bad news and a small good news should be announced separately; ④A big good news and a small good news should be announced separately. Small bad news, announced together.
