The Financial Times

This morning while I was taking a quick shower this is the conversation I heard going on in the other room:

Belle: Who's that?
Ben: A Stock Trader.
Belle: Oh, is he sad because the market crashed?
Ben: Yeah!

I guess these are the types of questions you ask when your dad reads the Wall Street Journal with you during breakfast.

The conversation carried on for a few minutes when I heard:

Belle: Don't worry, we can build a new market.
Ben: That's a good idea, we will build a new market!
Belle: I want a purple one!!!

In this grown-up world I am glad all innocence has not been lost!

So true that I can't decide whether it is funny or sad! Very cute perspective though.

Too funny. Jordan was asking what the DOW was and economy and all that yesterday and sadly I didn't have many answers. Maybe Belle could talk to him!
