Friday funny

Overheard in the restaurant:

Fund Manager: "I'm quite pessimistic about the current financial system. I've been buying gold."
Risk Manager: "Gold? That's not pessimistic enough. I've been buying rice."

You can have it both ways. On 9/11 our (grossly overweight) head of investment tore through the corridors shouting "Buy gold, buy gold!" And then went off and had a massive late lunch, which may well have included half a paddy.

Why would your head of investments eat alive half an Irishman? What happened to the other half?
