   A well dressed old man with one of those trophy girl friends walked into a jewelry store late one Friday afternoon.

   "I would like to see some really nice rings", he said.

   Reaching into the showcase the salesman produced one. "This one is 10K," he said.

   "That's nice," the old man said, "But I would like to see something better,"

   Going to the safe the salesman produced another. "This one is 30K," he said.

   "I'll take it ," the old man said. "It's late on a Friday and the banks are closed. Suppose I give you a check and pick it up Monday."

    Monday the old man walked into the store. "What the hell are you trying to pull?' the salesman said! "You don't have 30K in your checking account."

   "Yeh, I know," the old man said, "But let me tell you about my weekend!"

Cletus from Possom Gap in the North GA mountains walks into a bank in Atlanta and say he wants to talk to somebody about a loan.  After a few minutes he is introduced to a loan officer.  Cletus explains "Wael Ah'm aplannin to take my ladyfrien on a two week trip over to Paris and needs to borry about 25 hunnert dollars to hep us out."  The loan officer smiles and asks if the man has any way to secure the loan.  Cletus slides the title to a very nice Mercedes across the desk explaining "Ah kin leave this here car with ye."  The banker tells Cletus that they can make the loan but that it will have a stiff interest rate of 10% and that the car will need to be held by the bank in its private secured parking deck.  The deal is closed, Cletus hands over his car keys and walks out with $2500.

For the next two weeks the employees of the bank can't get enough laughing about how the bank had screwed the dumb hillbilly who used an $80,000 car as collateral for a $2500 loan at 10% interest.

After 15 days Cletus walks back into the bank and hands over $2510.28 in cash to repay the loan and interest.  The loan officer accepts the money and cancels the note then comments "You know, we have had some discussions as to why a man would ever risk an $80,000 car to borrow $2500.  Cletus replys "Shoot man, Ah didn't need to borry anythang from ye...Lordy, Ah got over 12 million dollar in my bank back home.  I jes figured they wusn't no better way to fin a sho 'nuff safe place to park mah car fer 2 weeks fer jes ten dollar an twenny ate cent!"
