Global Financial Crisis Solved


It is Xmas. In a small town on the South Coast of NSW, holiday
season is in full swing, but it is raining so there is not too much
business happening.

Everyone is heavily in debt.
Luckily, a rich American tourist ( Zane Grey???) arrives in the foyer of the small local hotel.

He asks for a room and puts a $100 note on the reception counter,
takes a key and goes to inspect the room located up the stairs on the third floor overlooking the sea.

The hotel owner takes the banknote in a hurry and rushes to his meat supplier to whom he owes $100.

The butcher takes the money and races to his supplier to pay his debt.

The wholesaler rushes to the farmer to pay $100 for pig he purchased some time ago.

The farmer triumphantly gives the $100 note to a local prostitute who gave him her services on credit.

The prostitute goes quickly to the hotel, as she was owing the hotel for her hourly room use to entertain clients.

At that moment, the rich American is coming down to reception and informs the hotel owner that the proposed room is unsatisfactory and takes his $100 back and departs.
There was no profit or income.

But everyone no longer has any debt and the townspeople look optimistically towards their future.


COULD THIS BE THE SOLUTION TO THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS?
