When James Tobin won the Nobel memorial prize in 1981, a journalist asked him to summarise his research in simple language. The great macroeconomist attempted to respond to this challenge, and one wire service dutifully reported that Professor Tobin had won the prize "for his work on the principle of not putting all your eggs in one basket".
当詹姆斯•托宾(James Tobin)获得1981年诺贝尔(Nobel)经济学奖时,一名记者请他用简单通俗的语言概括自己的研究内容。这位伟大的宏观经济学家尝试回应了这一挑战,对此一家通讯社进行了忠实的报道,称"托宾教授凭借对‘不要将所有鸡蛋放在一个篮子里'理论的研究获得了诺贝尔经济学奖"。
A newspaper cartoon then appeared announcing the award of a Nobel prize for "an apple a day keeps the doctor away".
随后一幅卡通画出现在了报纸上,画中宣称"每日一苹果,医生远离我"理论被授予诺贝尔奖。
But Tobin perhaps anticipated the awkward history of the Nobel memorial prize and financial economics. Robert Merton and Myron Scholes won in 1997 for their work on option pricing – less than a year before the dramatic bailout of Long-Term Capital Management, a hedge fund in which Merton and Scholes were closely involved.
但托宾或许已经预见了诺贝尔奖在金融经济学领域将要出现的一系列尴尬。1997年,罗伯特•默顿(Robert Merton)和迈伦•斯克尔斯(Myron Scholes)凭借在期权定价领域的研究成果获得诺贝尔经济学奖,此后不到一年默顿和斯克尔斯担任合伙人的对冲基金长期资本管理公司(Long-Term Capital Management)就受到了戏剧性的救助。
