Add colour to your life, with today’s ConWorkShop theme: Things that are or can be yellow.

One thing that can be yellow is the stock market. When prices fall, the stock market turns yellow, like nature in the dry season. And when prices go up, the stock market turns green, like nature when the rains return. And no matter how recklessly you speculate in the stock market, you can’t lose your shirt if you never owned one in the first place. So a Rireinukave speculator might lose her bedroll instead.
