Economics Joke

A man receives 4 letters. He opens the first letter and it's from the firm he is working at. His superior has terminated his service and he becomes an unemployed.

He then opens the second letter. It's from his wife and it's a divorce letter.

Next, the third letter. It's from his doctor and it's a confirmation that he is diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and he will die in a week.

Finally, the man opens the last letter and it's from a lottery firm confirming that he won the first prize of the jackpot.

After all the letter, he jumps in joy and happiness. He loudly says assume that everything else being constant, ceteris paribus, I am happy I won the lottery jackpot. Hurray!
