A distinguished-looking man entered a Geneva bank and inquired
about taking out a loan for 1000 Swiss francs.

What security can you offer? the banker asked.

My Rolls-Royce is parked out front, he said. I will be away
for a few weeks. Here are the keys.

A month later, the man returned to the bank and paid off the loan,
1017 francs with interest.

Pardon me for asking, the banker said, but why a one-thousand
franc loan for a man of your obvious means?

Very simple, he replied. Where else can you store a Rolls for
a month for seventeen francs?
