    • LESSONS OF BUSINESS STRATEGY.

      THE USE OF INFORMATION.

      A man is going to take a shower the moment his wife is finishing doing it.

      At that moment the doorbell rings. After a few seconds of doubt, both decide that she will go, so she wraps herself in a towel, goes, opens the door and meets the next door neighbor.

      Before she utters a word, the neighbor says to her:

      - I give you € 1,000 if you drop the towel on the floor.

      She thinks for a few seconds, decides, drops the towel and stays naked in front of the neighbor that, after a few seconds, reaches into his pocket, takes out € 1,000, delivers it, turns around and leaves.

      Still confused, she quickly closes the door, wraps herself again in the towel and returns to the bathroom to dry her hair.

      When she arrives, her husband asks who had hit the doorbell.

      "The neighbor next door," she says.

      And the husband asks:

      - Did you return the € 1,000 I lent?

      CONCLUSION:

      If you share critical information with your partners, especially about credit and risk, you will avoid undesirable situations.

      You have no power over me.

    • THE REVENGE OF WOMEN.

      A WOMAN AND A MAN IN AN AIRPLANE.

      The guy, to pass the time, proposes a game to the woman.

      She, tired, replies that she does not care and puts herself to sleep. The guy does not give up and proposes the following:

      I ask you a question and if you do not know how to respond, you give me 5 euros, then you ask me a question and if I do not know how to answer it, I'll give you 500 euros. "

      Finally the woman gives in and decides to submit to the first question.

      Man: What is the distance between the Earth and the Moon ?.

      The woman, undeterred, grabs her wallet, takes out 5 euros, and gives them to the guy.

      The guy, satisfied, grabs the 5 euros and waits for the woman to ask.

      Woman: What is it that has 3 legs when climbing a mountain and 4 when it descends ?.

      Then she turns and falls asleep. The guy does not stop thinking, consult his portable encyclopedia, phone a friend ...

      No answer ... nothing ... no solution. After many hours of intense reflections, he awakens the woman and gives her 500 euros.

      The woman, half asleep, takes the 500 euros and turns again to try to continue sleeping.

      The guy, a little frustrated: Well, and the answer, what is it?

      The woman, without turning, tends a ticket of 5 euros.

      Because my will is as strong as yours and my kingdom as great ...
      You have no power over me.
