smart indians
It is because of the business sense demonstrated below.
An Indian walks into a New York City bank and asks to see 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 forsuch a
loan, so the man hands over the keys of
a new Rolls Royce parked on the street in front of the bank.
Everything is checked 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 man 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 Indian replied,"Where else in New York can I park my car for two weeks
for 15 bucks?"
Cheers !
Indians are indians......, Smart
