Cheaper way to park the Rolls
2009-03-23 娱乐英语 来源:互联网 作者: ℃A businessman walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer.
He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow
$5,000. The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for
such a loan. So the businessman hands over the keys to a 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
businessman returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to
$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 $5,000?" The businessman
replied, Where else in New York can I park my car for two weeks for 15 bucks?"
