外國最新英語幽默笑話精粹165:貸款(中英)
一個商人走進紐約的一家銀行,要找信貸員。他說要去歐洲出差兩個星期,想借5000美元。信貸員說對這樣的貸款需要一些擔保。于是商人把他的勞斯萊斯汽車的鑰匙拿了出來,車就停在銀行前面的大街上。一切談妥之后,銀行同意以汽車作為抵押來借他這批錢。就這樣,汽車被一個雇員開進了銀行的地下停車場。
A businessman walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer. He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for such a loan. So the businessman hands over the keys to a Rolls Royce parked on the street in front of the bank. Everything checks out, and the bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan. An employee drives the Rolls into the bank’s underground garage and parks it there.
兩星期后,商人回來了,償還了5000美元,并支付了15.14美元的利息。信貸員說“我們合作的非常愉快,所有事情都非常順利。但是,有一點我們覺得有些奇怪,當您離開以后,我們調(diào)查到您是一位大富翁,為什么以一輛勞斯萊斯汽車作為抵押卻只貸款5000美元呢?”富翁回答說:“在紐約,除了這里,我到哪里還能找到停兩個星期車只收巧美元的地方呢?”
Two weeks later, the businessman returns,repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41.The loan officer says, "We are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely,but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?" The businessman replied, "Where else in New York can I park my car for two weeks for 15 bucks?"
