Once upon a time there was a shepherd looking after his sheep
on the edge of a deserted road. Suddenly a brand new Jeep Cherokee screeches to
a halt next to him. The driver, a young man dressed in an Armani suit,
Prada shoes, Ray-Ban glasses, and a Hermes tie gets out and asks the shepherd:
"If I guess how many sheep you have, will you give me one of them?"
The shepherd looks at the young man, then looks at the sheep which graze and
says: " All right." The young man parks the car, connects the notebook
and the mobile, enters a NASA website, scans the ground using his GPS,
opens a data base and says Excel tables filled with
algorithms, then prints a 150-pages report on his high-tech mini-printer.
He then turns
"You have exactly 1586 sheep
here."
The shepherd answers, "That's correct, you can have your sheep" The young man takes a sheep and puts in the back of his Jeep.
The shepherd looks at him and asks: "If I guess your profession, will you return my sheep to me? The young man answers: "Yes, why not." The shepherd says: "You are an investment banker!"
"How did you know?" asks the young man,
"Very simple", answers the shepherd "First, you come here without being asked. Second, you charge me to tell me something I already know. Third, you have no #$%^&%$ clue about what do because you took my dog!!!
