Overheard on Wall Street.
On Wall Street, there is a man who, working at one of the largest and most respected investment banks in the world, Goldman Sachs, maintains a Twitter account where he collects quotes overheard in the elevators of Wall Street offices. Although they are sometimes arrogant and funny, they reveal the truth of life.
So, here are 60 of the most apt statements from people who own almost all the money in the world:
- Teach a man to fish, and he will again vote for the one who promises to give him this fish.
- If I get fired, it will be a good test of my wife’s fidelity, but if I am promoted, then it will be a test of me.
- If you have a good metabolism, a head full of hair and a good job, don't marry young, wait 10 years and make a choice.
- Statistically, there's no point in you worrying about what your first wife's mother looks like.
- I would agree with you, but then we would both be wrong.
- I start every telephone conversation with the words: “My phone is almost dead and may turn off, so let’s be quick.”
“The neighbor’s grass is greener because it’s fertilized with shit.”
- Music was better in times when ugly people were allowed to sing.
- A new sign of cool is to meet with friends and never look at your phone.
- The fact that there are ugly prostitutes exhaustively shows the essence of men and the free market.
- Most celebrities don’t even have a university education - so why the hell would you consult them on any serious issue?
- Only a Neanderthal stoops to physical violence. I prefer to humiliate morally, break the spirit and deprive of hope.
- One of my favorite things is when someone posts a selfie and no one likes it.
- When I hear “Do you have a minute?” - I understand that now I will lose half an hour, which I will never be able to get back.
