It’s Friday, It’s Raining – Let’s Brighten Up Our Mood!

As our followers know, we like to post great advice and keep you posted on the products out there that can help you beat bank interest rates and get your money working for you in these tough economic times.

However......

It is Friday, here in our Spanish office we are looking at rainy skies. I have just spoken to our London office and they are also looking at rainy skies.... So I thought ‘Let’s brighten our day with a bit of fun for a Friday!’

This morning I received the joke below and it made me chuckle. It also has a brilliant message on bank interest rates in the current climate.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did:

A woman walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer.

She says she's going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer tells her that the bank will need some kind of security for such a loan, so the woman hands over the keys to a new Rolls Royce that's parked on the street in front of the bank.
Everything checks out, and the bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan. An employee drives the Rolls Royce into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.
Two weeks later, the woman returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41. The loan officer approaches her and says:
"We are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we're a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked out your accounts and found that you were a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"

"Well, where else in Manhattan can I park my car for two weeks for fifteen bucks?"

All of us at Global Investment Solutions wish you a fantastic weekend and look forward to giving you some exciting news in our blog on Monday!
