How True?? by whytepawn1(m): 12:58pm On Feb 11, 2016 |
In Zimbabwe, a man appeared and announced to the
villagers that he would buy monkeys for $20.00 each.
The villagers seeing that there were many monkeys
around, went out to the forest and started catching
them. The man bought thousands at $20.00, and as
supply started to diminish, the villagers reduced their
effort. He further announced that he would now buy at
$30.00. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and
they started catching monkeys again. Soon the supply
diminished even further and people started going back
to their farms. The offer increased to $40.00 each and
the supply of monkeys became so little that it took so
much effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it!
The man now announced that he would buy monkeys
at $ 100.00! However, since he had to go to Jo'burg
on some business, his assistant would now buy on his
behalf.
In the absence of the man, the assistant told the
villagers, "Look at all these monkeys in this big cage
that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at
$80, and when the man returns from the city, you can
sell them to him for $100.00 each." The villagers came
together with all their savings and bought all the
monkeys. Then they never saw the man or his
assistant, only monkeys everywhere! You have just
been given a free lecture on how the stock market
works!!! |
