Only a boricua.....
A young Puerto Rican man walks into a bank in New York City and asks for
the loan officer. He tells the loan officer that he is going to Puerto Rico on a vacation
for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer tells him
that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, so the young
man hands over the keys to a new BMW 740i. The car is parked on the
street in front of the bank. The young man produces the title and everything checks out.
The loan officer agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the
Puerto Rican for using a $80,000 BMW as collateral against a $5,000
loan. An employee of the bank then drives the BMW into the bank's
underground garage and parks it there. Two weeks later, the young man
returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41.
The loan officer says, "Sir. 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 successful
businessman. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"
The Boricua replies:
Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only
$15.41, and expect it to be there when I return?"
The bank employees watch as he pulls out of the garage, windows down And
sunroof open. Salsa music was blasting from his car as he pulled away...
