One day Billy bought by a farmer in Texas a donkey for $ 100.
The farmer assured him that he would deliver the donkey the next day.
The next day the farmer went to Billy and said, "I'm sorry but I have bad news: the donkey is dead. "
Billy replied," Then give me back my $ 100 "
and the farmer:" I can not, I've already spent. "
Then Billy said thoughtfully, then said to the farmer: "Okay, then give me the dead donkey."
- "And what do you do with a dead donkey, Billy?"
- "I organize a lottery prize and put it as"
The farmer said ironically: "You can not sell tickets to be won with a dead donkey."
When Billy said: "Of course I can, just do not tell anybody he's dead."
A month later the farmer met Billy again, so he asked: "How did it end with the dead donkey?"
- "I put it as a prize in a lottery, I sold 500 tickets at two dollars apiece and I won $ 998 "
-" And no one has complained? "
-" Only the guy who won the lottery, and make him stop I returned to complain to her two dollars "
Billy currently works for Goldman Sachs.
NB There are many variations of the story, I took this here
