Future Fed Chairman in the Making



Is there enough liquidity in the system? I don't know. Let me check the pool. It seems okay. No, maybe not. Are those bubbles? How am I supposed to know? Maybe I should cut interest rates? Or maybe I should raise them? Hello? Anyone? Oh, crap. Let me check the pool again. Hold on. I think I see something. Looks like me. Oh, wait. Might be my reflection. Is this all just an illusion? I better do something. Or would it be better to do nothing? This job is so hard. I touch the pool and the outlook changes. Is it supposed to do that? Has anyone ever done this before? Say what? I'm in charge? How did that happen? I better check the pool again. Do I get in the pool? I'm not sure. What if I can't get out? This job is so frustrating. F%^k it! I'm raising rates. No, I'm cutting them. Crap. Maybe I should just keep monitoring the situation. I know. I'll check the pool again. Maybe something has changed.

Central bankers aren't really that cute, but I think you've got the intellectual process pretty much mapped out.

PS: This is transcendingly brilliant. I bow before the master.

Maybe they are born cute and the central banking process turns them into ivory tower monsters? ;)
