The Bride

The young bride approached her eager husband on
their wedding night and
demanded $20 for their first love-making encounter.
In his highly aroused
state, he readily agreed.
This scenario was repeated each time they made
love for the next 30
years, him thinking it was a cute way for her
to buy new clothes, etc.
Arriving home around noon one day, she found her
husband in a very drunken
state. Over the next few minutes she heard of the
ravages of financial ruin
caused by corporate down sizing and it's effects on
him, a 50 year old junior
executive.
Calmly, she loaded him into her car and drove down
to the downtown
hotel. Pointing to fine structure she informed
him that he owned the
land it was built on and that they paid him $6000
per month rent. She then
handed him a bank book showing deposits and interest
for 12 years totaling
nearly $1 million dollars. Pointing across the
parking lot she gestured
toward the local bank while handing him stock
certificates worth nearly $2
million dollars and informing him that he was the
largest stockholder in the
bank. She told him that for 30 years she had charged
him each time they had
sex, and this was the result of her investments.
By now he was distraught and beating his head
against the side of the
car. She asked him why the seemingly
disappointment at such good news
and he replied, "If I had known what you were doing,
I would have given you
ALL of my business!"
