Rule of Life

A madam opened the brothel door to see Joe; a rather slight, slick looking, well-dressed, middle-aged gentleman standing there.

“May I help you?” the madam asked.

“I want to see Natalie,” Joe replied.

“Sir, Natalie busy right now. Besides she is one of our most expensive ladies. Perhaps someone else…”

“No, I must see Natalie.”

Just then Natalie appeared and explained to Joe that she charges $1,000 per visit.

Without blinking, Joe reached into his pocket and handed her ten $100 bills. The two went up to a room for an hour, after which Joe calmly left. The next night he appeared again demanding to see Natalie.

Natalie explained that it was very rare for anyone to come back two nights in a row and that there were no discounts … it was still $1,000 a visit. Again, Joe took out the money, the two went up to the room and an hour later he left. When he showed up on the third consecutive night no one could believe it. Again he handed Natalie the money and up to the room they went.

At the end of the hour Natalie questioned Joe: “No one has ever used my services three nights in a row. Where are you from?”

Joe replied, “I’m from Maryland.”

“Really?” replied Natalie, “I have family who lives there.”

“Yes, I know”, said Joe. “Your father died and I’m your sister’s attorney. She asked me to give you your $3,000 inheritance.”
