Which Would You Pick?
As a young boy enters a barber shop, the barber whispers to his customer, "This kid is a few fries short of a happy meal... watch while I prove it to you." The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and three quarters in the other and then calls the boy over and asks, "Which do you want, son?" The boy takes the quarters and leaves. "What did I tell you?" said the barber, shaking his head in disbelief. "That kid never learns! Every day he stops by and I offer him a dollar bill and he takes the quarters instead."
Later that day the customer sees the same young boy coming out of an ice cream shop. "May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?" The boy licked his cone and smiled, "Because the day I take the dollar, the game is over."
Here's the way I see it: Don't underestimate the thought process of a child, for they are often smarter than you think!
