1. #PFIZER METHOD
Hire a lion, give him full rest, pay him more than his expectations, never ask for anything in the first two months. After two months tell him that you have to achieve your yearly target in 9 months.
Lion dies of fear, that if he does not achieve this he will lose the jungle.
2. *AMAZON METHOD*:
Hire a lion, give him a hell of a lot of work, pay him a fat salary, more than the industry. Restructure his job every six months, as per your fancies.
If he kills two goats a day, next day give him a target of killing 20 elephants a day while knowing that there are only 10 elephants available. Lion dies of exhaustion & overkill.
3. *ZOMATO METHOD*:
Hire a lion & give him a post of a cat, than force the lion to meow like a cat. Give him lots of ESOPs & grass to eat. Lion will eventually die of hope & starvation.
4. *TCS METHOD*:
Hire a lion & set a cut off time, give the lion a spoon instead of a knife & ask him to extract 60kg meat out of a 40kg goat or else the lion will be forced to become a dog. Lion dies out of frustration & strain.
5. JP MORGAN METHOD
Hire a lion & give him a 3000 page circular on how to kill a goat.Amend the circular at least 3 times a week. Send the lion in the jungle to inspect how he can cancel the licence of fox,or wolf who have violated the 3000page circular. Lion dies of stagnation
6. #MICROSOFT METHOD*:
Hire a lion & give him 60 kgs of meat to eat everyday when he can eat only 30kg. Lion dies of overeating.
7. #GOOGLE METHOD*:
Recruit a lion, ask him to kill an elephant without any cut or blood from the body.
Lion is forced to learn from ducks, rabbits & pigeons on how to kill dinosaurs. Lion is provided with 2 wolves to help in killing but with a condition that the wolves will not move or attack. Lion dies of confusion & paradoxes.
8. *FLIPCART METHOD*: #Flipkart is out of the race as they are still thinking as to what is a lion?
9. #JIO METHOD*

Stocks in Germany, the UK, France, Italy, and Spain Plunge Below Year 2000 Levels: Buy-and-Hold Horror Shows
by Wolf Richter • Mar 6, 2022 •
Food for thought in light of the biggest stock market bubble in the US ever.
By Wolf Richter for WOLF STREET. #investing
Major European stock indices plunged below their bubble highs from over two decades ago. This is not to say that they plunged that much this week, but that they had finally risen past their prior bubble highs from over two decades ago, powered by money printing,
and then they plunged.
German stocks. The most widely cited German stock market index, the DAX, is a total return index that includes dividends and is therefore not comparable to a price index such as the S&P 500 Index, which does not include dividends.
Another short investing story to help put successful investing into context.
David loves games, which is a bit of an understatement. He owns 756 board games, which I assume is a record if record-keepers kept track of such a thing. #invest#nifty#investors
I found David playing an old arcade game at our office. I asked if he prefers board games to video games. He wasn't sure, so I asked a different question, meant as a joke but it elicited a great response.
"If you had to give up board games, video games, or stocks, which would you quit?" I asked.
"Stocks," David said, without hesitation.
This surprised me. David's passion for investing is part of what our company relies on.
A bridge was built to connect two parts of the city. A toll tax was proposed but officials wanted it to be a "progressive" tax. They decided rich people will pay more to cross.
So how to identify rich and poor quickly?
They had an idea, rich people wear shoes ( it's 1888 remember ), so they decided to charge a tax based on that. If you cross the bridge wearing shoes, you pay a tax, but if you are barefoot, you cross for free.
Simple
Easy
Difficult to avoid
Brilliant idea
But it failed.
Why?
The rich simply took off their shoes and crossed the bridge. ( Tax Avoidance )
The poor?
They did not want to be seen as poor, so they would wear shoes or borrow shoes to cross the bridge.
Late last year,two young men decided to live a month of their lives on the income of an average poor Indian. One of them, Tushar, the son of a police officer in Haryana, studied at the University of Pennsylvania & worked for 3 years as an investment banker in the US and Singapore
The other, Matt, migrated as a teenager to the States with his parents, and studied in MIT. Both decided at different points to return to India, joined the UID Project in Bengaluru, came to share a flat, and became close friends.
The idea suddenly struck them one day.Both had returned to India in the vague hope that they could be of use to their country.But they knew the people of this land so little. Tushar suggested one evening -Let us try to understand an average Indian, by living on an average income
