Before going to Europe on business a man drove his Rolls Royce to a downtown NY City bank and went in to ask for an immediate loan of 5 000 The loan officer taken aback requested collateral Well then here are the keys to my Rolls-Royce the man said The loan officer promptly had the car driven into the bank`s underground parking for safekeeping and gave him 5 000 Two weeks later the man walked through the bank`s doors and asked to settle up his loan and get his car back That will be 5 000 in principal and 15 40 in interest the loan officer said The man wrote out a check and started to walk away Wait sir the loan officer said while you were gone I found out you are a millionaire Why in the world would you need to borrow 5 000? The man smiled Where else could I park my Rolls-Royce in Manhattan for two weeks and pay only 15 40?
