Bank deposit question

Quote from DontMissTheBus:

Or perhaps you are a scion of some super secretive family who owns multiple banks... (secretive because I can't really don't think that, outside of middle eastern princes, there are families who are major owners of more than one bank anymore)... but I doubt it.

Not that this adds anything, but perhaps the Rothschilds.
 
Quote from DontMissTheBus:

What does this have anything to do with YOUR ability to start a bank?

I'm distantly related to several long extinct lines of dukes and princes - does that improve my chance of establishing a dukedom in 2011?

You are a strange fella.

It shows that there is a genetic ability to understand banking.

Clearly few people do.
 
So... the banking theory is....genetic....

Does anyone else find it both hilarious and some what disturbing that the moderator of the economics forum believes the ability to understand banking is... genetic?

Different forms of intellgence are genetic. Don't forget they not only operated banks they invented many of the mechanisms and the concepts involved. I invent financial tools. Therefore there is likely a genetic ability.

Perhaps it is in the genetic interest in banking. I don't see banking as a way of making money but more an art.
 
...wow... I don't think I could have come up with this absurdity even if I tried... very hard... with the help of a bottle of scotch...

So you don't think intelligence is genetic?

My father had a PHD in statistics, and all the people before him worked in insurance and banking. There is a link between those skills.

I think intelligence at least the form it takes is genetic. Many people think this. It is not just me. There are papers on it.

I don't think that people with other genes cannot do the work. But they are not pre disposed to naturally fall into that area. Or they do not have the interest in that area which leads to them doing it, which I think is also genetic. Many people like the things there parents like. I like banking it is an art not a living. This is the drawing aspect to me.

Other people might not spend the time learning it due to a lack of interest. I am pre disposed to find it interesting.
 
You should show your father this thread.

Also, you are up to your tricks again. You did not say intelligence is genetic. You said the understanding of banking is genetic.

Yes the ability to understand banking and develop new ideas is genetically pre disposed to a degree. I am not saying others cannot do it, but it is easier for me and the interest I have is genetic too.
