The new bride
The young bride approached her awaiting husband on
their wedding night and demanded $20 for their first love-making encounter.
In his highly aroused state, he readily agreed.
This scenario was repeated each time they made love for
the next 30 years, him thinking it was a cute way for her to buy new
clothes, etc.
Arriving home around noon one day, she found her
husband in a very drunken state. Over the next few minutes she heard of the ravages
of financial ruin caused by corporate down sizing and its effects on a 50
year old executive.
Calmly, she handed him a bank book showing deposits and
interest for 30 years totalling nearly $1 million dollars. Pointing
across the parking lot, she gestured toward the local bank while handing him
stock certificates worth nearly $4 million dollars and informing him that he
was the largest stockholder in the bank.
She told him that for 30 years she had charged him each
time they had sex , and this was the result of her investments. By now
he was distraught and beating his head against the side of the car.
She asked him why the disappointment at such good news
and he replied, "If I had known what you were doing, I would have given you
all of my business!
Men have no idea when to keep their mouth shut.
