The Indian Stock Market has been in turmoil (like the rest of the world, really) in recent times.
Since humour is the best antidote to sad times, someone intelligent thought this up:
BSE: Bombay Se Exit NSE: Nation Se Exit F/O : Future Over NIFTY: No Income For This Year PE: Plunge Endless EBITDA : Exit Before It Tumbles Down Again HNI: Has No Idea PMS: Pre-Meditated Scam
SIP: Suicide by Investing Patiently.
IPO – Instant Portfolio Obliteration FOMO – Fear Of More Outflows ETF – Everything Tanking Fast ROI- Regret On Investment EPS-Earnings Probably Shrinking NAV- Not Any Value CAGR – Constantly Avoiding Green Returns SIP-Systematic Investment Pain
An Income Tax Officer called an elderly taxpayer to his office… 😀
The old man arrived right on time, accompanied by his lawyer… 😀
Income Tax Officer: “You are retired, but we have information that you live quite lavishly. Where does the money for this come from…?” 😎
Elderly Taxpayer: “I win it through betting (Jugaad)…” 😀
Income Tax Officer: “We don’t believe you!” 😎
Elderly Taxpayer: “I can prove it! Would you like to see a sample…?” 😀
Income Tax Officer: “Fine, let’s see! Go ahead!” 😎
Elderly Taxpayer: “Are you ready to bet a thousand rupees…? I claim that I can bite one of my own eyes with my teeth.” 😀
Income Tax Officer: “What…? 🤔 Impossible! The bet is on!” 😎
The elderly taxpayer takes out his glass (artificial) eye and bites it with his teeth…! 😀
The Income Tax Officer admitted defeat and gave the elderly taxpayer a thousand rupees! 😎
Taxpayer: “Now, are you ready to bet two thousand…? 😀 I can bite my other eye too!” 😂
The Income Tax Officer thought, 🥱 Obviously, he isn’t blind… 😎 His other eye can’t be made of glass. 🥱 How will he do it…? Let’s see! 😎
And said, “The bet is on…!” 😎
The taxpayer took out his dentures and gently bit his eye… 😀
The Income Tax Officer was shocked but couldn’t say anything… and quietly paid two thousand rupees! 😂
The Taxpayer continued: “I’ll give you one more chance… 😀 Are you ready to bet ten thousand…? 😀”
Income Tax Officer: “What act of bravery will you perform now…?” 😎
Elderly Taxpayer: “There is a trash can in the corner of your room… I claim that I can stand here in front of your desk and spit (‘perform Visarjan’) directly into that bin… 😀 And not a single drop will fall on your table…” 😂
Just then, the elderly man’s lawyer loudly yelled: “Don’t take the bet! Don’t take the bet…! 😩😩”
But the Income Tax Officer didn’t listen… 😀
He saw that the distance was more than 15 feet, and no one could do that…! 😎 And this old man definitely wouldn’t be able to do it… 😎
Thus, after much deliberation, and hoping to win back his lost money, he agreed to the bet! 😎
The elderly man’s lawyer slapped his forehead! 😎
The elderly man bent down and started, but his attempt failed…! 😀 He completely covered the Income Tax Officer’s table with spit… 😂 but the Income Tax Officer was extremely happy! 😂
He saw that the old man’s lawyer was crying! And he (the Officer) had won the bet. 😎
He asked: “What’s wrong, Counselor…?” 😀
The Elderly Man’s Lawyer said: “This devil bet me fifty thousand this morning… 😂 that he would spit on the Income Tax Officer’s table, and instead of getting angry, the officer would be happy about it…! 😂😂😂😃😃
