As supply started to diminish and villagers started to stop their efforts, he announced that now he would buy them at &lt;span style="color:#33ffff;"&gt;$20&lt;/span&gt; each.&lt;br /&gt;This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again. Soon, the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms.&lt;br /&gt;The man increased his offer to &lt;span style="color:#66cccc;"&gt;$25&lt;/span&gt; each and the supply of monkeys became so scarce that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it.&lt;br /&gt;The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;$50&lt;/span&gt; each.&lt;br /&gt;However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy on behalf of the man.&lt;br /&gt;In the absence of the man, his assistant told the villagers "Look at all the monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at &lt;span style="color:#00cccc;"&gt;$35&lt;/span&gt; each and when my boss returns, you can sell them to him for &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;$50&lt;/span&gt; each."&lt;br /&gt;The villagers queued up with all their savings and bought all the monkeys.&lt;br /&gt;After that, neither the assistant nor the businessman could be found, but the monkeys were everywhere!&lt;br /&gt;lubomyra98 @&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.findsingapore.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7996&amp;amp;sid=ce19ae55c4e8a50c1ac04c13eb71bf5f"&gt;http://www.findsingapore.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=7996&amp;amp;sid=ce19ae55c4e8a50c1ac04c13eb71bf5f&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8169271863255920062-4043529590925178138?l=silentconsensus.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://silentconsensus.blogspot.com/feeds/4043529590925178138/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8169271863255920062&amp;postID=4043529590925178138' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8169271863255920062/posts/default/4043529590925178138'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8169271863255920062/posts/default/4043529590925178138'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://silentconsensus.blogspot.com/2007/10/philosophy-of-stock-market.html' title='Philosophy of the Stock Market'/><author><name>enblock victim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14401757798522022393</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RK9E-zodqFk/RzjXfoHORCI/AAAAAAAAAHg/hQG1fqn818w/s200/071113-+(Td,+Julian+W)+Monkey+cut.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8169271863255920062.post-2234009010855878323</id><published>2007-09-26T00:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2007-09-26T00:44:07.348-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Mocca: Hi i'm selling my house.</title><content type='html'>Funny...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hi i'm selling my house.&lt;br /&gt;You like it?&lt;br /&gt;Its clean and Green with three huge rooms.&lt;br /&gt;The bedroom is over there!&lt;br /&gt;The kitchen is over there!&lt;br /&gt;This is my beautiful bathroom.Check out my matching pipes.&lt;br /&gt;What to see more?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Call this number .. *shows his back with the telephone numbers*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_Hr8QTvH9k"&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_Hr8QTvH9k&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8169271863255920062-2234009010855878323?l=silentconsensus.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://silentconsensus.blogspot.com/feeds/2234009010855878323/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8169271863255920062&amp;postID=2234009010855878323' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8169271863255920062/posts/default/2234009010855878323'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8169271863255920062/posts/default/2234009010855878323'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://silentconsensus.blogspot.com/2007/09/mocca-hi-im-selling-my-house.html' title='Mocca: Hi i&apos;m selling my house.'/><author><name>enblock victim</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14401757798522022393</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='20' height='32' src='http://bp2.blogger.com/_RK9E-zodqFk/RzjXfoHORCI/AAAAAAAAAHg/hQG1fqn818w/s200/071113-+(Td,+Julian+W)+Monkey+cut.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
