Yelling at Collecting Stamps
My dad was a stamp collector and it bored me to tears. Look at this one from England. It’s the Queen’s head …dad. Can I go outside? Janet Yellen and I have the same relationship with stamps. She the US Secretary of the Treasury… you’ll find her signature on the dollar bill. And she does not collect stamps. But somehow… everybody thinks she does. Yellen inherited her mom’s stamp collection. She has little interest… but she had to list the stamps as an asset on her financial disclosure forms. So for years… every time she meets a foreign ambassador… they give Janet Yellen a stamp. Indonesia even created a stamp with Janet Yellen’s portrait. Still not her thing. Yellen was even invited to join the most prestigious stamp collecting club in the world… the Club De Monte Carlo even boasted Queen Elizabeth as a member. When Yellen got the invitation…she said no. So a note to foreign ambassadors. May I suggest instead of gifting the Treasure Secretary Stamps… give her live chickens. The inflation she’s fighting has hit the price of eggs the hardest. … so she’ll appreciate the free omelets. Plus the every time she cleans the coop… it’ll remind her where the economy’s going.
