Automotoportal's car joke of the year!
Posted on 06/07/2008 under: News
A Chinese man walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer. He tells the loan officer that he is going to China on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, so the Chinese man hands over the keys of his new Ferrari parked on the street in front of the bank. He produces the title and details and checks out. The loan officer agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan...
Two weeks later, the Chinese man returns, 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 multi-millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"
The Chinese man 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?"
What you have just read is a joke that is circulating on the Internet. The wealthy can definitely take note and maybe this might be the safest way to park your supercar the next time you are flying overseas!
