A blonde walks into a
New York City Bank and asks for the loan officer. She says she is going
to Europe on business for 2 weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer says
he will need some kind of security for the loan, so the blonde hands over the
keys to a brand new Porsche parked out the front of the bank. With the title and
paper work all checked out, the bank agrees to accept the car as security for
the loan. The loan officer
drives the new Porsche into the bank’s underground garage and park’s it there. Two week’s later the
blonde returns, repays the $5,000’s she loaned, and $15.40 interest that
accumulated. The loan officer approaches the blonde and says “We here at the
bank are very happy that this transaction has worked out, but while you were
away, I checked you out, and I’m a little puzzled. I found out that you are a
multi-millionaire. What puzzles me is why you would bother to borrow $5,000. The blonde replies, “Where
else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for 15 bucks?”
精明的金发女郎
一位金发女郎走进了纽约市的一家银行,找到了银行的信贷员。 “我准备去欧洲洽谈生意,计划两个星期才能回来。我这次需要从你们这里贷款5000美元。”她说。 “考虑到这笔贷款的安全性,我们银行需要您提供某种形式的财产抵押。”信贷员说。 于是,这位金发女郎便将停在银行外面街上的那辆劳斯莱斯汽车作为这笔贷款的抵押品。随后,一位银行职员将劳斯莱斯开到了银行的地下停车场,把车子停在了那里。 两个星期之后,金发女郎如期返回纽约,偿还了那笔5000美元的贷款和利息,利息共计15.41美元。 “我们这一次合作非常愉快,这一次交易非常顺利。不过,有一点我们疑惑不解。您离开之后,我们查了一下您的账户,发现您是一位千万富翁。这就让我们颇为费解,您为什么不嫌麻烦贷了这区区5000美元呢?”信贷员问。 “在纽约,哪里还有这么好的地方让我停车两个星期而只收15美元的?”金发女郎反问道。 |
