"Well then, here are the keys to my Rolls-Royce," the man says.©JOKEDEMO.COM
The loan officer promptly has the car driven into the bank's underground parking for safe keeping and gives the man the $5,000.©JOKEDEMO.COM
Two weeks later, the man walks through the bank's doors and asks to settle up his loan and get his car back.©JOKEDEMO.COM
"That will be $5,000 in principal, and $15.40 in interest," the loan officer says. The man writes out a check and starts to walk away.©JOKEDEMO.COM
"Wait, sir," the loan officer says. "You are a millionaire. Why in the world would you need to borrow $5,000?"©JOKEDEMO.COM
The man smiles, "Where else could I find a safer place to park my Rolls-Royce in Manhattan for two weeks and pay only $15.40?"
