Conversation between Lady and a Wise Gentlemen.
Gentlemen : We did go last week .... and you bought all the stuff which are needed ? so whats new in this week ?
Lady : There is end of season sale we will get value products at discount prices ... isn't it good to buy quality brands at cheaper price and save our money that we budget for buying this stuff ?
Gentlemen : That budget its already spend last week... I have to manage money wisely else you will end up spending all that we have saved.
Lady : OK just give me few bucks so I can buy this branded bag which is currently running at flat 60% off else someone will pick the bag and I wont get the opportunity to buy such a bag at such a cheaper rate.
Gentlemen : You already have a bag, isn't it good enough ? why you want to add one more in your list ? what will you do with two bags ? since you will carry one at a time.
Lady : So in future when we go for outing it will be so much useful. Remember last time we had to borrow a bag while planning the trip.
Gentlemen : Okay odkies you won. Take my card to swipe but remember to buy top quality bag which will last longer else you will end up buying another one soon.
Lady : Thank you !! You have such a great common sense to understand me.
They went together to shop.
Gentlemen : hmm.... When we go home I will check how great common sense you have while answering my queries.
Lady : Done shopping. I am so so happy. Lets go home.
Arrived at home.
Gentlemen : Let's have a cup of tea to relax and enjoy the weather.
Lady : Here is the tea time. So you wanted to ask something to me ?
Gentlemen : Oh! yes . I am planning to buy some share of a company called XYZ as a investment for our future. What's your view on this ? currently its running at a discount price.
Lady : Are you nut ? Look at the market its going down everyday. You will end up making losses.
Gentlemen : Its one of the finest people who are running this XYZ company and I know it will shine in future and will stand still in this volatile market.
Lady : I don't agree . Why don't you understand ? Put it in fix deposit and when the market recovers then you should buy this shares.
Gentlemen : See you also have a great common sense but you are not using it correctly.
Lady : Angrily.. what do you mean ?
Gentlemen : I just applied the same formula of End Of Season sale which you just did few hours ago for buying the new bag which will be useful for future outing.
Lady : But that's a different story . What common between the two ?
Gentlemen : Smiling.... Common Sense is common between the two, so you mentioned that market will recover in future and you are confident ? right ?
Lady : Yes I did.
Gentlemen : So if I know that the market will recover in future , buying shares at such a discount price will make more profit.
Lady : But don't you calculate the risk factor here ?
Gentlemen : I have already calculated the risk by allowing you to swipe my card for the bag and made your day as outcome.
Lady : Started laughing..... Men will be Men.
Gentlemen : And you have a great common sense :)
