A woman had just stepped out of the shower when the doorbell rang. Her husband was about to hop in, so she quickly wrapped herself in a towel and hurried to answer the door.
Standing there was Bob, their neighbor. Without missing a beat, Bob said, “I’ll give you $800 to drop the towel.”
The woman paused for a moment, considering the offer. $800 seemed like a fair deal, so she agreed. She dropped the towel, collected the cash, and closed the door.
When she returned upstairs, her husband asked, “Who was at the door?”
“It was Bob,” she replied.
“Perfect! Did he mention the $800 he owes me?”
The woman’s jaw dropped. She had just made a deal with Bob, not realizing the money was meant for her husband all along.
