A blonde walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan
officer.
She tells the loan officer that she is going away on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer tells her that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, so the blonde hands over the keys to a new Ferrari parked on the street in front of the bank.
She produces the title and everything checks out. The loan officer agrees to
accept the car as collateral for the loan. The bank's president and its
officers all enjoy a good laugh at the blonde for using a $250,000 Ferrari
as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drives the
Ferrari into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.
Two weeks later, the blonde returns, repays the $5,000 and the
interest, which comes to $15.41. The loan officer says, "Miss, 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 multi-millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you
bother to borrow $5,000'"
The blonde replies: "Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return'"
Ah, the mind of the blonde...
