Young Chuck moved to Texas and bought a Donkey from a farmer for $100.

The farmer agreed to deliver the Donkey the next day.

The next day he drove up and said, 'Sorry son, but I have some bad
news, the donkey died.' Chuck replied, 'Well, then just give me my
money back.'

The farmer said, 'Can't do that. I went and spent it already.' Chuck
said, 'Ok, then, just bring me the dead donkey.' The farmer asked,
'What ya gonna do with him? Chuck said, 'I'm going to raffle him off.'
The farmer said You can't raffle off a dead donkey!' Chuck said,
'Sure I can Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead.'

A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, 'What happened
with that dead donkey?' Chuck said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500
tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $998.' The farmer
said, 'Didn't anyone complain?' Chuck said, 'Just the guy who won. So
I gave him his two dollars back.'

Chuck now works for Goldman Sachs.
