A very dignified gentleman walks into a leading city bank and enquires about taking out a loan for £2,000.
What security can you offer? the banker enquires. "Well I've parked my Rolls Royce Phantom in one of your parking bays, I'll be away for a few weeks here are the keys." Four weeks later the dignified gentleman returns and pays off the loan, £2024 including interest and collects his keys. "Pardon me" the banker says, "but why would a man of your obvious means bother with a loan of £2,000? "Very simple," he replied, "where else in the middle of the city could I get secured parking for £24!"
