A 17-year-old boy who works part-time at Pizza
Hut drives up his parent’s driveway in a
Porsche….
Naturally, his parents know that there’s no way
he earned enough with his after-school job to buy
such a car.
“Where did you get that car?” his mom and dad
screamed in shock.
He very calmly tells them, “ I bought it today.”
“With what money young man?” his mom
demands. “We know how much a Porsche costs
and you cannot afford it”
“Well, it’s used and I Got a good deal” says the
boy, “This one cost me 20 dollars.”
At this point, the parents don’t believe him and
start yelling even louder.
“Who on earth would sell a car like that for 20
dollars?!”
“The woman up the street,” the boy replies.
“Name please?” Asked the mom
“I don’t know her name–she just moved in. She
order a pizza and I delivered it to her and asked
me if I wanted to buy a Porsche for 20 dollars.”
“Oh my gosh,” the mom moans. “She must be
some sort of crazy. Who knows what she will do
next? Tim, you go right up there now and see
what’s going on.”
The boy’s dad and mom hurry over to their new
neighbor’s house, ready to demand an
explanation. Curiously, their new neighbor is
calmly planting flowers in her front yard.
“I’m the father of the kid you just sold a sports
car to for $20,” the dad says. “I need an
explanation from you – ASAP!”
“Well,” the woman says, not looking up from her
garden. “This morning I got a phone call from my
husband. I thought he was on a business trip in
Florida, but it seems he has run off to Hawaii
with his secretary and doesn’t intend to come
back.”
“What on earth does that have to do with selling
our son a Porsche for $20?” The boy’s mom asks,
utterly perplexed.
The new neighbor smiles very big, and pauses for
a minute.
“Well, my husband asked me to sell his new
Porsche and send him the money. So I did.”
