One day the famous Greek philosopher Socrates met an acquaintance in the street and he said to him:

- Socrates, do you know what I just heard about one of your students?

- Wait, before you tell me that, I want to do a little

Danish Hans-Peter Christensen, instead of paying interest on a mortgage loan he took out 11 years ago, received DKK 249 ($38) from the bank himself in the last quarter. The fact is that at the end of 2015, the interest rate on his loan, excluding fees, was -0.0562%. "My parents said I should frame this receipt to prove to future generations that this really happened," Christensen says.
