Question

答：通常我能找出潜在的问题，即使问题并不显眼。我想起一位投资银行家，他听过我们的金融不动产课程，并问我们为什么东京投资集团难以吸引当地投资。许多工商管理硕士尝试从一系列复杂的原因去思考，但我认为这与迅速摆脱市场不利因素有关，是非流动性投资引发的问题。我是说，如果主要投资当地不动产且通货膨胀已经使货币价远高于黑市价，投资者会感到不稳定，这样一来，结束投资就成为投资者的首选了。

向面试官举例说明你用过的实际可行的方法。怎样才算是简单明了且又是最佳的解决方法？其他人忽略了明显的问题吗？在这个事例中，你要更多地显示出常识性技能而非专业技能。

Q:How practical or pragmatic are you?

A:I can usually pick up on an underlying problem,even of its not too obvious.I recall an investment banker who visited our realestatefinance class and asked us what might cause the Tokyo investment community a problem in attracting local investment dollars.A number of finance M.B.A.s in the class started trying to think of some complicated set of reasons.I decided it would have to do with getting out of a bad market quickly,and that a nonliquid investment would create problems.I said investors would be unsettled if the primary investment is local real setate and inflation has caused the paper value to exaggerate the real street value.As it ended up,that was the answer he wanted.
