The donkey and high finance
Some time ago, Billy bought a donkey from a farmer for 100 dollars.
The farmer assured him that he would deliver the donkey the next day.
The next day the farmer went to Billy and said, "I'm sorry but I have bad news: the donkey died."
Billy replied, "Then give me back my $ 100"
and the farmer: "I do not I can, I've already spent. " At that point
Billy became pensive, then said to the farmer: "Okay, then give me the dead donkey."
- "And what do you do with a dead donkey, Billy?"
- "I organize a lottery and put it as a reward"
The farmer said ironically: "You can not sell tickets to be won with a dead donkey."
When Billy said: "Of course I can, just do not tell anybody he's dead."
A month later the farmer met Billy again, so he asked: "How did it end with the dead donkey?"
- "I put it as a prize in a lottery, I sold 500 tickets at two dollars 'a and so I won $ 998 "
-" And no one has complained? "
-" Only the guy who won the lottery, quit complaining and do I have returned her two dollars "
Billy currently works for Goldman Sach.
