A city boy, Kenny, moved to the country and bought a donkey from an
old farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next
day.
The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some
bad news, the donkey died." Kenny replied, "Well then, just give me my
money back."
The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already." Kenny
said, "OK then, at least give me the donkey." The farmer asked, "What ya
gonna do with him?"
Kenny, "I'm going to raffle him off ." Farmer, " You can't raffle off
a dead donkey!" "Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he is
dead."
A month later the farmer met up with Kenny and asked, "What happened
with that dead donkey?" Kenny said, "I raffled him off. I sold 500
tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $998."
"Didn't anyone complain?"
"Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."
Kenny grew up and eventually became the chairman of Enron.
