Chapter 1271 The most important thing in life is salted fish
It’s a joke, but the possibility of the Iceland government’s debt is very high. Iceland and Argentina are different. Just like now, John Niu used the anti-terrorism law to freeze all Iceland’s assets in the UK to protect the security of domestic depositors’ funds.
The reason why the UK is so nervous is mainly due to the high interest rates. More than 100 municipal committees in the UK have £1 billion in taxes at the Icelandic bank. The London Police Department in the UK has £20 million in banks in Iceland. Many of them are counter-terrorism funds, so British Prime Minister Brown has used the rarely used counter-terrorism law power to freeze Icelandic assets.
However, the UK did not dare to force Iceland to be too anxious. At present, Iceland only wants to ask for help from a bear, but most of them will be rejected by the unkind bear. Of course, if it is really too urgent, Iceland may not be able to learn from Argentina selling islands to survive.
This is a big deal that European countries are afraid of the weapons. You should know that the warming of the earth has enabled the opening of the Arctic Ocean Road. If a bear is allowed to settle in, it would be a tragic thing. Relatively speaking, selling assets to the people of the Celestial Empire is acceptable, after all, it is beyond reach.
So everyone guessed and summarized that Iceland was better off than not. Andy and his subordinates could guess, and John Cow could naturally guess, but for Iceland, the premise was that there was another big tui to hold, a fur bear and a rabbit, one was powerful and the other was rich. As for John Cow, he could only swallow the bitter fruits.
Listening to his subordinates, Andy listened thoughtfully and quietly. In his previous life, although he knew about the Iceland crisis and the government was facing bankruptcy, for some reason, the information about Iceland's bankruptcy was intentionally or unintentionally blocked or refrigerated. At that time, as an IT staff member, he just listened as a joke and didn't care.
Europe has always given people the impression that it has both economical and picturesque scenery and brilliant culture, castles, ballet, classical music...
Most of the time, people's impression of Europe is simply a paradise on earth, a comfortable living environment, a safe social atmosphere, and a perfect welfare system...
The Icelanders were once the most diligent workers in Nordics, and the gap between the rich and the poor in Iceland is very small. The Icelanders' welfare system is even more leading in the world.
However, there were only a few hundred thousand people, nine surnames, and Viking descendants with severe inbreeding experiences after seeing Wall Street's success, and then they did succeed for a while and became richer.
If you have money, you naturally have to start pursuing a luxurious lifestyle. You have all kinds of luxury goods, traveling everywhere, buying a car, a house, and a RV...
Iceland soon became the place with the largest number of luxury off-road vehicles in the world, and every family consumes through mortgage loans and buys houses and cars. Credit and debit cards are almost more than twice the total population.
Perfect welfare may cultivate irresponsible people, and a comfortable living environment will lead to overall unintentional and unintentional progress.
After Andy penetrated into the financial industry, he found that high welfare countries such as Iceland, Greece, Germany and the United States were tied up by ropes he created. The name of this rope is credit.
Credit and advanced consumption are actually more blunt, that is, the greed, fear and yw of every country, nation, and individual.
Under the financial crisis, they did not die at the hands of others, but at their own hands.
In any case, the Icelandic myth has come to an end. Although the borrowed money can be rich for a while, it finally drags the country into the abyss.
"The hustle and bustle in the world will eventually stop, and all glory and wealth will be like passing clouds. When everything is over, you will find that the most important thing in life is the salted fish..."
Andy, touching her chin, couldn't help but shake her head and laugh, sighing in the words of Nobel Prize winner Hader.
"Boss, we made a profit of more than 300 million euros from the Icelandic Krone foreign exchange rate, equivalent to more than 400 million US dollars. The main reason is that international speculators are entering the market very fast. Even if we make judgments and preparations in advance, we can only grab so many."
Andy, who was still sighing about the salted fish before, immediately smiled happily on her handsome face, waved her hand and said, "Everyone, you have done a lot of success. I know that in the past more than a week, you have been working all night long, and it is very hard. Although I really hope to give you a vacation, I believe you will never accept it happily. After all, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make money. Whoever misses will regret it..."
With funds in the account, Andy was undoubtedly the happiest. He did not forget to continue to drive away his subordinates and give him a harder work. Even though he knew that these subordinates had worked 24 hours a week in the previous foreign exchange futures market, he did not want to slacken off because of complacency and miss this opportunity.
After all, his advantage is only a few years of memory. Andy, who is used to looking at the world from the perspective of God, can only crazily squeeze profits in time with advantages and build a fortress and confidence that can resist any risks. He doesn't want to be the tragedy of having nothing in the end, only a salted fish.
With Andy's generous reward, I deeply understand the horror and insecurity caused by the financial crisis. Seeing other peers unemployed, unable to afford loans, and becoming homeless, vivid examples happening around me one by one. What else can make people feel more secure than being able to make money!
Rest? No need at all!
There is nothing that can inspire morale more than the British pound and the US dollar. It is not like the London branch, but also the foot basin branch. The most exaggerated one is the US headquarters. Andy even heard that these bastards are now becoming very crazy. In order to refresh themselves and keep themselves excited, Liberty City Investment Company has become a bit messy.
But Budstone did not stop the crazy behavior of his men. He also came from his youth and naturally knew the madness of Wall Street, especially in the good years. When making a lot of money, tens of millions and billions of dollars passed by himself every day, earning large sums of dollars through his own hands, and he would receive a reward for every profit. This kind of mental stimulation and excitement is something that ordinary people cannot understand.
There are many harsh but realistic words circulating privately on Wall Street, which always inspire people here to become crazy.
"If you can't even squeeze the bus to stimulate you to improve your life, there's nothing else to do."
"Black Friday shopping spree is the capitalist Paralympic Games."...
Many such truths that cannot be publicly promoted, full of all kinds of discrimination but have been sharpened and inspired to push the group of people to keep moving forward, because those who cannot do it have already left mg Stanley...
Crazy Wall Street will not fall because of a crisis.
To this day, even though it claims that the crisis is "only seen in a century", Wall Street has not shaken its belief in financial derivatives trading. Even Paulson is only emphasizing the self-discipline of Wall Street people.
Of course, Wall Street's sins have completely angered the entire American society at this time. The 700 billion rescue plan is equivalent to making every American take out more than two thousand dollars.
Since no one can tell how big the black hole in the financial market is, and at the same time, people are worried that Wall Street will make a fortune by making a huge crisis, angry people took to the streets and used various methods to warn members of their constituency to resist the rescue plan.
Andy's cheap dad Auston received 2,000 emails and phone calls in a day. Most of these messages strongly demanded that the parliament reject the rescue plan.
All this will not have any impact on Andy. The only thing he has to do now is to let his hungry wolves help him collect enough dollars to make him complete his plan. As for the others, he chose to automatically block it.
"If life is a game, money is my scoring method. And I want my life to eventually become like playing the low-difficulty Call of Duty. That is, just walk around and shoot and kill people..." Andy smiled unconsciously and said Li Xiaoying, who appeared without makeup without makeup, said.
After Li Xiaoying pulled the corners of her mouth unnaturally, she glanced speechlessly. She was really defeated by Andy's idea.8)
