THE FERRARI AND THE BANK
(Have a good laugh, it's on me.)
 
A Chinese man walks into a bank in New York City and asks
for the loan officer.
 
He tells the loan officer that he is going to China on business
for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer
tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the
loan, so the Chinese man hands over the keys to a new Ferrari
parked on the street in front of the bank.
 
He produces the title and everything checks out. The loan officer
agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
 
The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at
the Chinese for using a $250,000 Ferrari as collateral against
a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drives the Ferrari
into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.
 
Two weeks later, the Chinese returns, repays the $5,000 and
the interest, which comes to $15.41. The loan officer says,
 
"Sir, 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 multi-millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to
borrow $5,000?"
 
The Chinese replies: "Where else in New York City can I park my
car for 2 weeks for only $15.41 and Expect it to be there when I return?"
