A white haired man walked into a jeweler's shop late one
Friday, with a beautiful young lady at his side.
"I'm looking for a special ring for my
girlfriend" he said.
The jeweler looked through his stock, and took out a
lovely ring priced at $5,000.
"I don't think you understand, I want something very
unique," said the older gentleman.
At that, the jeweler went to get his special stock from
the safe. "Here's a stunning ring at just $40,000," he
said as he held out the rock.
The girls' eyes sparkled, and the older man said that he
would take it.
"How are you paying?"
"I'll pay by check, but of course you will want to
make sure everything is in order at the bank, so I'll write the check and you
can phone the bank tomorrow. I'll pick up the ring on Monday."
Monday morning a very teed-off jeweler phoned the older
man. "You old fool,” the jeweler said. “You lied. There's no
money in that account."
"I know," the old guy said, "But can you
imagine what a fantastic weekend I had?"
