Monday Humor: Sex Sells... Japanese Bonds
As many prepare for the imminent demise of the JPY (courtesy of Abe's aggression), Mike Krieger of Liberty Blitzkrieg reminds us of possibly the greatest (and most unbelievably hilarious) financial advertisement ever. From our friends across the ocean, "Men that own government bonds are popular with the ladies!" Don't believe its real? Bloomberg story here.

Sovereign Bankrupt Style
'Gentlemen prefer bonds', obviously. They got Game.
What does Kyle Bass have to offer Japanese bachelors? Hayman Capital clients need to know a.s.a.p.
biggest joke ever, do u have the original source (except this bloomberg article?)
Gentlemen prefer bonds.
What's next? Buying Japanese bonds makes your wiener grow?
Japanese men...satisfying women with their small...um, rates. I love it when stereotypes play out in reality.
I guess the Japanese haven't heard of golddiggers.
Owning JGB's shows the guy is rich and stupid. What more could a girl want?
Dunno. Kind of like picking up nickels in front of a steam roller. I say get in, get out, take your profits rapidly if your going to mine for gold like that.
Silver nickles?
Anyone here know how to say "Jumping the Shark" in Japanese?
Reeks of pure desperation.
You crazy GI! You buy bond make dinky dao!
Fun fact: The Bloomberg article (and therefore the whole ad campaign) is from back in June 2010.
So.... Nothing to see here, move along.
Next, they will offer coupons for "Free trip to Soapland" with each bond.
Oh yes I have lots of bonds. Now suck my dick.
Hrmm, so what happens to my love life if I buy 10x leveraged bond funds?
You'll need a Percentage Pump just to keep up...
Does this mean bonds will be sold in 6", 8", and 10" denominations?
Will I get 4% on a 8" long X 5-1/2" circumference bond?
Will it be tax free?
Will I get laid?
Not if they are japanese...
You can enter a back-to-back trade for a dirty price of 10'' and a duration of 30 minutes. However, you are running the risk of booking a substantial haircut.
I would rather go long Dong bonds to hedge my duration and liquidity risk.
JPY GB!
Boss!
Jenna Jamieson for CNBC topless gets you a Corzine discount. SEC approval included.
How about some bondage ?
Wot?
No Babes in Beach Towels? Gotta have beach towels or it'll be a 'nobvious scam..
Spiderman beech towels! Bitchez
...because what girl doesn't want a threesome with a bad-hair geeky dude on a bed of Yen?
Seriously using pussy to sell government debt!? Deodorant I can understand, but bonds? Once they resort to the lowest common denominator, you know it's game over. Somewhere there is a fat broad getting ready to sing.
This fat broad have a bond fetish too? ("Oh, sweet mystery of life at last I've found you!")
Looking for a new group of investors? Or another group that can be devoured and pretend everything is working out just fine!
Will it all work out in the end? If so why are they seeking out new groups to hold bonds?
Define the end.
Easy that, when every Japanese citizen holds government bonds.
Next up, might take a couple of years for it to catch on reckon the west will try the same trick. No solution, a deferral until you cannot defer anymore.
Banksta style!
Maybe if Hyperinflation is a sexual term...
The Japanese religion, SUKI (tm), The New World Religion (tm) has recently begun to call itself the so-called "motherfucking religion". Yet another example of bizarre Japanese marketing.
they are more interested in bondage than bonds -
jb
Those bonds smell fishy..
WTF??
Why is it all Japanese women prefer to color their hair like a white woman? I thought Japanese were xenophobic.
My Gosh. Are those girls twelve years old...someone call the police.
"I want a man who'll set a floor of 100 Usd/Yen and help our exporters!"
Buying the Bonds Gets You Free Vouchers for Whoring. Priceless.
I dont know who comes off worse in this....women or government bonds? Ah well, not to worry, there is always pokemon.
For that kind of add I expect at least a C cup. This mans assets need to go to maturity first.
