Economist

Nasreddin was walking in the book fair with a large group of followers. Whatever Nasreddin did, his followers immediately copied. Every few steps Nasreddin would s top and shake his hands in the air, touch his feet, and jump up yelling "Supply Demand Price Policy!". So his followers would also stop and do exactly the same thing. One of the booksellers, who knew Nasreddin, quietly asked him: "What are you doing my old friend? Why are these people imitating you?" "I have become an Economist," replied Nasreddin. "These are my Students; I am teaching them the secret of wealth!" "How do you know when they have learned the secret?" "That’s the easy part! Every morning I count them. The ones who have left – they know ~ they are Economists!"
