BANKING CRISIS EXPLAINED

Smiling Helps!

Young Harry moved to Queensland and bought a donkey from a farmer for $100.

The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day.

The next day he drove up and said, 'Sorry son, but I have some bad news, the donkey died.'

Harry replied, 'Well, then just give me my money back.'

The farmer said, 'Can't do that. I went and spent it already.'

Harry said, 'OK, then, just bring me the dead donkey.'

The farmer asked, 'What ya gonna do with him?

Harry said, 'I'm going to raffle him off.'

The farmer said 'You can't raffle off a dead donkey!'
Harry said, 'Sure I can, watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead.'

A month later, the farmer met up with Harry and asked, 'What happened with that dead donkey?'

Harry said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars apiece and made a profit of $998.00.'

The farmer said, 'Didn't anyone complain?'

Harry said, 'Just the guy who won. So I gave him back his two dollars.'

Harry now works for the National Australia Bank!
