 A
salesman was trying to persuade a housewife to buy a refrigerator. He
told her it would save her a lot of money because it was state-of-the-art
and power-saving, and would save her shopping time as well as gasoline
for the drive to the food store. The housewife answered, "Let me
tell you the truth: We have 'saved' too much already! We have saved
to pay the loan for our new car; we have saved to pay the mortgage for
the house we live in; we have saved to pay for our children's college
education; we have saved for the upcoming Christmas holiday; we have
saved to buy a new dishwasher too! And now we have no more money to
'save'!"
