Ole became quite successful in America. He one day walks into a New York City bank and tells the loan officer that he is going to Norway on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000.
The bank officer tells him that they will need security for the loan, so Ole hands over the keys to his new Ferrari.The car is parked on the street in front of the bank. Ole produces the title and everything checks out.
The loan officer agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
The bank's president enjoys a good laugh at Ole 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, Ole returns and repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41. The loan officer says, 'Sir, 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?'
Ole replies: 'Vere else in New York City can I park my car for two veeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be dere ven I return?'
Ah, ya gotta love those Norwegians... Ya, sure, you betcha! |
