An investment counselor1 decided2 to go out on her own. She was shrewd and diligent3, so business kept coming in, and pretty soon she realized that she needed an in-house counsel. She began to interview young lawyers.

"As I'm sure you can understand," she started off with one of the first applicants4, "in a business like this, our personal integrity must be beyond question." she leaned forword. "Mr. Peterson, are you an 'honest' lawyer"?

"Honest?" replied the job prospect5. "Let me tell you something about honest. Why, I'm so honest that my father lent me 15,000$ for my education, and I paid back every penny the minute I tried my very first case".

"Impressive. And what sort of case was that"?

The lawyer squirmed in his sit and admitted, "He sued me for the money".
