A blonde walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan
officer.
She says she's 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 the
loan, so the blonde hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce.
The car is parked on the street in front of the bank; she has the title,
and everything checks out.
The bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the
blonde for using a $250,000 Rolls as collateral against a $5,000 loan.
An employee of the bank then drives the Rolls into the bank's
underground garage and parks it there.
Two weeks later, the blonde returns and repays the $5,000 and the
interest, which comes to $15.41.
The loan officer says, "Miss, we are very happy to have had your
business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely; but we are a
little puzzled. We checked you out and found that you are a
multimillionaire. What puzzles us is - why would you bother to borrow
$5,000?"
The blond replies....."Where else in New York City can I park my car for
two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return?"
