A successful trader parked his brand new PORSCHE in front of the office ready to show it off to his colleagues. As he got out a truck came along too close to the kerb and completely tore off the driver's side. The trader immediately grabbed his mobile and dialled the emergency services. It wasn't more than 5 minutes and a policeman pulled up.
Before the policeman had a chance to ask any questions, the trader started screaming how his brand new car, which he just picked up that day, was completely ruined and would never be the same again. After the trader finally finished his rant, the policeman shook his head in disbelief.
POLICEMAN: "I can't believe how materialistic you traders are!? You're so focused on your possessions you don't notice anything else."
TRADER: "How can you say that?"
POLICEMAN: "Didn't you realize that your left arm is missing from your elbow down? It's been torn off from when the truck hit you!"
TRADER: ... looked down in absolute horror ..."F*cking Hell!" he screamed ..."Where's my ROLEX?"
