A wealthy, 84-year-old businessman married a 25-year-old fashion model. They were having a wonderful honeymoon in Switzerland when the old man suffered a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital.
With his young wife at his side, the old man said, “Sweetheart, your future has been taken care of regardless of what happens to me. You will have an income of US$250,000 a year, my home in Palm Springs, my ranch in Texas, and my Mercedes. You’ll never need to worry about money.”
“Oh, sweetheart, please don’t talk that way,” his young wife cried. “You’ve already been so thoughtful, kind, and generous to me. There must be something I can do to help. Honey, please tell me what I can do for you?” The old man breathlessly answered, “Well, you can get off my oxygen tube for starters.”
一名八十四歲的富商娶了一位二十五歲的時裝模特兒為妻子。他們正在瑞士度過一個美好的蜜月，這時老頭因為心臟病發作被急速送往醫院。
嬌妻於一旁服侍時，老頭說︰「親愛的，無論我發生什麼事，妳都無需擔心妳的將來，妳將會有二十五萬美元的年收入、我在棕櫚泉的房子、在德州的牧場以及我的賓士車。妳永遠都無需為錢而愁了。」
「哦，親愛的，請別這麼說，」他年輕的妻子哭著道。「你一直是那麼貼心、心腸好又對我如此慷慨。一定有什麼事是我可以幫你的。親愛的，請告訴我，我能為你做些什麼呢？ 」老人氣喘吁吁地說，「嗯，首先妳可以不要壓著我的氧氣管。」
