One day a couple named Herman and Mary were riding along in their expensive new car. Mary spoke up and said, “You know, Herman, if it weren’t for my money, we probably wouldn’t have this wonderful new car.” And Herman just sat there and didn’t say anything at all.
As they pulled into the driveway, Herman turned off the motor and they quietly admired their new home. Then Mary said, “You know, Herman, if it weren’t for my money, we probably wouldn’t have this new house.”And again, Herman just sat there and didn’t say anything.
They got out of the car and walked in just as the delivery man finished setting up their new furniture. “You know, Herman,” said Mary once more, “If it were not for my money, we probably wouldn’t have this new carpet and all this new furniture.” And once more, Herman didn’t say a word.
It happened again as they sat down in their new den and propped their feet up and watched the big screen TV in their new entertainment center. “You know, Herman,” said Mary, “If it were not for my money, we probably wouldn’t have this huge entertainment center.”
And with that, poor Herman had had enough. He turned to Mary and said, “I don’t want to hurt your feelings, Honey, but you know if it weren’t for your money, I probably wouldn’t be here either!”
