Einstein and the Banker!

Einstein dies and goes to heaven only to be informed that his room is not ready yet. He is greeted by the doorman, who explains, "I hope you will not mind staying in the dormitory, but it's the best we can do and you will have to share the room with others We are very sorry!"
Einstein says that this is no problem at all and that there is no need to make such a great fuss. So the doorman leads him to the dormitory. They enter and Albert is introduced to his four new roommates.
The doorman states, "Here is your first room mate and he has an IQ of 180!" "That's wonderful!" says Albert. "We can discuss mathematics!"
Next the doorman introduces his second roommate, saying, “His IQ is 150!""That's wonderful!" says Albert. "We can discuss physics!"
Further along, the doorman says "And here is your third room mate. His IQ is 100!""That's wonderful! We can discuss the latest plays at the theater!"
Just then another man moves out to capture Albert's hand and shake it. "I'm your last room mate. I'm sorry, but my IQ is only 80."Albert smiles back at him and says, "So, where do you think interest rates are headed?"

I like it Sriram. Reminds me of the quote I may have shared with you before;

"Strategies are okayed in boardrooms that even a child would know are doomed to failure. The problem is there is never a child in the boardroom"
