A Nice Idea...

Before going to Europe on business, a man drove his Rolls Royce to a downtown NY City bank and went in to ask for an immediate loan of $5,000. The loan officer, taken aback, requested collateral.

"Well, then, here are the keys to my Rolls Royce," the man said. The loan officer promptly had the car driven into the bank's underground parking for safe keeping, and gave him $5,000.

Two weeks later, the man walked through the bank's doors, and asked to settle up his loan and get his car back. "That will be $5,000 in principal, and $15.40 in interest," the loan officer said. The man wrote out a check and started to walk away.

"Wait sir," the loan officer said, "while you were gone I learned that you are a millionaire. Why in the world would you need to borrow $5,000?"

The man smiled. "Where else could I park my Rolls Royce in Manhattan for two weeks and pay only $15.40?"

Todays Quote

Birthday Girl
Joyce Brothers
 

The best proof of love is trust.
Joyce Brothers

Being taken for granted can be a compliment. It means that you've become a comfortable, trusted element in another person's life.
Joyce Brothers

Love comes when manipulation stops; when you think more about the other person than about his or her reactions to you. When you dare to reveal yourself fully. When you dare to be vulnerable.
Joyce Brothers

Trust your hunches. They're usually based on facts filed away just below the conscious level.
Joyce Brothers

Accept that all of us can be hurt, that all of us can and surely will at times fail. Other vulnerabilities, like being embarrassed or risking love, can be terrifying, too. I think we should follow a simple rule: if we can take the worst, take the risk.
Joyce Brothers

A strong, positive self-image is the best possible preparation for success.
Joyce Brothers


The person interested in success has to learn to view failure as a healthy, inevitable part of the process of getting to the top.
Joyce Brothers

No matter how love-sick a woman is, she shouldn't take the first pill that comes along.
Joyce Brothers

Virginity is such a personal thing. You can't judge anyone on it. A lot of young women feel they want to save themselves for the man who they think they'll love forever.
Joyce Brothers

Credit buying is much like being drunk. The buzz happens immediately and gives you a lift... The hangover comes the day after.
Joyce Brothers

The world at large does not judge us by who we are and what we know; it judges us by what we have.
Joyce Brothers

I don't give advice. I can't tell anybody what to do. Instead I say this is what we know about this problem at this time. And here are the consequences of these actions.
Joyce Brothers

Listening, not imitation, may be the sincerest form of flattery.
Joyce Brothers

If Shakespeare had to go on an author tour to promote Romeo and Juliet, he never would have written Macbeth.
Joyce Brothers

Marriage is not just spiritual communion, it is also remembering to take out the trash.
Joyce Brothers

As a celebrity, you get a certain number of free passes. You're actually in a better position if you're a celebrity because people care.
Joyce Brothers

For men to be virgins, we think it's negative. We think that there's something wrong with them.
Joyce Brothers

There is such a thing as bad publicity.
