Lol i saw this just in writing couple of months ago but that one is good as when your looking at your digit you dont look at the other symbols and realise that every 9 there is the same symbol.
Clever still though.

its been around in many forms since i was a kid,this is just a new take,it all to do with our maths being to a base of 10
another old one is thus
3 old ladies buy a tele for£10 each ,the guy in the shop feels sorry and says i will do you a bit of discount,heres £5 back!
not being able to split a fiver equally they take a £1 each and give the guy £2
so they paid £10 each - £1 back = £9 times 3 = £27 + £2 to the guy = £29
who has the missing pound?
heh

Or the all time favourite, people are so impressed if they haven't seen it before
- Think of a number between 2 and 9
- Multiply this number by 9
- Take the 2 digits of your new number, and add them together
- Subtract 5 from this new number
- You have a new number
- Now, think of the corresponding letter of the alphabet 1=A, 2=B, 3 = C etc
- Think of a country beginning with that letter
- Take the second letter of the country
- Think of an animal beginning with that letter
- Think of the colour of that animal.
And, if their maths is good and grasp of geography/zoology is half decent, they're thinking of a grey elephant in Denmark.
Beautiful.
