Read this in WSJ. Had to share it.

• What's the definition of Optimism? An investment banker who irons 5 shirts on a Sunday evening.
• What's the capital of Iceland? About $3.50.
• I tried to get cash from the ATM but it said "insufficient funds". I don't know if that meant them or me.
• What's the difference between an investment banker and a large pizza? The pizza can still feed a family of four.
• What does a hedge fund manager with no assets to manage say? Would you like fries with that sir?
• The credit crunch is getting bad, isn't it? I mean, I let my brother borrow 10 bucks a couple of weeks back. It turns out I'm now America's fourth biggest lender.

Good stuff. You can see it here.
