A woman walks into a bank
in New York City
and asks for the loan officer. She says she is going to
Europe on
business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5000.
The bank officer
says the bank will need some kind of security for such
a loan, so the
woman hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce, parked
on the
street, in front of the bank.
Everything checks out, and the bank
agrees to accept the car as
collateral for the loan.
An
employee drives the Rolls into the bank's underground garage and
parks
it there.
Two weeks later, the woman returns, repays the $5000.
and the interest
which is $15.41.
The loan officer says,
"We are very happy to have had your business,
and this transaction
has worked out very nicely, but we are a little
puzzled. While you
were away, we checked you out and found that you are a
multimillionaire. What puzzles us , is why would you bother to borrow
$5000
?"
The woman replied, "Where else in New York, can I park my
car for 2
weeks for $15.00?"
