I`m being serious now

Following the problems in the financial sector in the US and UK, uncertainty has now hit Japan.
In the last 7 days Origami Bank has folded, Sumo Bank has gone belly up and Bonsai Bank announced plans to cut some of its branches.
Yesterday, it was announced that Karaoke Bank is up for sale and will likely go for a song, while today shares in Kamikaze Bank were suspended after they nose-dived.
While Samurai Bank is soldiering on following sharp cutbacks, Ninja Bank is reported to have taken a hit, but they remain in the black.
Furthermore, 500 staff at Karate Bank got the chop and analysts report that there is something fishy going on at Sushi Bank where it is feared that staff may get a raw deal.

The same goes for Australia. The Billabong Bank has dried up and members of the Kangaroo Bank are hopping mad at their demise. The Crocodile Bank seems to be in its death roll, and the Ayers Rock Bank is beginning to crumble.
It is very worrying times in Australia

An update on Australian Banks
They tell me that Koala Bank can bear no more.

You should have your pension invested in the U.S. stockmarket. You wouldn't be laughing so hard then!

The stockmarket in Australia isn't doing at all well just now. I have most of my money invested in cash just now, but I might be temped to buy some of BHP shares just now as they're well down on what they should be worth and it's only a matter of time that they'll skyrocket.

Well clearly this thread was in a jocular vein and as such ought to be in the Jokes section - agreed its not a laughing matter per ce.

We could cry about it Debbie, but that would only compound matters. As long as I'm in good health and not struggling for cash, "What the heck"
