THE CUNNING ECONOMIST - FUNNY JOKE

An economist dreamed that God came to his office. He did not know what to say, and suddenly he remembered that as a little boy, someone had told him that a thousand years was like a minute to the Lord. So he asked the Lord if that was true. The Lord said, "Yes, that's true." By this time, the economist had recovered his composure. He said, "Then perhaps it may also be true that what is a million dollars to us is only a penny to you." And the Lord said, "Yes, that's certainly true." So the economist said, "Well, Lord, how about giving me one of those pennies?" The Lord said, "Certainly. I don't happen to have it on me, but I'll go fetch it, if you'll wait a minute."
