An old retired man goes to his wife one
day, and says to her, "I don't know how to tell you this dear, but the stock market
crashed, and I'm afraid we're broke."
The wife says, "No, we're not. Let's
go for a drive into town."
The husband replies, "Our savings are
all gone and you want is to go for a drive? Oh well, whatever. I guess you're crazier than
me." So off they go into town.
When they get there his wife points and
says, "See that office building? We own that."
The husband thinks his wife is nuts so he
mumbles something unintelligible and drives to the next area of the city, which just
happens to be the richest part of town. His wife says again pointing, "See those five
houses? We own those."
The husband is now sure his wife is
certifiably crazy so he says, "What makes you think we own all this property?"
His wife replies, "Remember when we
first got married and for jokes you would give me $5.00 every time we had sex? Well, I
kept the money and invested it and 20 years later this is what has become of it all. Not
bad, eh?"
The husband says, "Dammit woman, if
I'd known you were this good with money I'd have probably given you all my business."
