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 immediate¹ loan of $5,000. The loan officer, taken aback, requested collateral².

"Well, then, here are the keys to my Rolls Royce," the man said. The loan officer promptly³ 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?"
