Below are some jokes to ward away those credit crunch blues.
The credit crunch is getting bad, isn't it? I mean, I let my brother borrow 10 pounds couple of weeks ago, it turns out I'm now Britain's fourth biggest lender.
A man went to his bank manager and said: 'I'd like to start a small business. How do I go about it?'
'Simple,' said the bank manager. 'Buy a big one and wait.'
What's the definition of optimism?
An Investment Banker ironing five shirts on a Sunday evening.
This is not a rescue. - Goldman Sachs Chief Financial Officer David Viniar after Goldman poured $3 billion into one of its hedge funds
George Bush was asked today: "What do you think of the credit crunch?"
He replied, "It's my favourite candy bar."
I went to the ATM this morning and it said “insufficient funds”. I’m wondering is it them or me.
You know it’s a credit crunch when…
1. The cashpoint asks if you can spare any change.
2. There’s a ‘buy one, get one free’ offer - on banks.
3. The IRS is offering a 25 per cent discount for cash-payers.
4. Your builder asks to be paid in Zimbabwean dollars rather than US dollars.

It is good to see that something good has come out of the credit crunch! The most interesting part is that if you analyze this sarcasm of the financial crisis you can see different patterns; in the UK and many other European countries many of the jokes are about the US as a nation, in the US however, the jokes are about the leaders and corporations. And as always; sarcasm always have a serious sub harmonic, so who to blame for the financial crisis; the US as a united Nation or the CEO’s of the American corporations?
