A youthful 17-year-old lad who works part-time at Pizza Hut returns home one day in a magnificent Porsche. His parents are taken away by the sight of the beautiful car and instantly ask him where he obtained it.”Where did you get that car?” his mother and father inquire, perplexed by the sight before them.” I bought it today,” the teenager says calmly.

His mother becomes concerned and demands, “With what money, young man? We know how much a Porsche costs, and you can’t afford it.” The boy says, “Well, it’s used, but I got a nice bargain. “This one only cost me $20.”His mother, shocked, says, “Who on earth would sell a car like that for 20 dollars?!” “The woman up the street,” the boy responds. “I don’t know her name; she just moved in. She ordered pizza, and when I brought it, she asked if I wanted to buy a Porsche for $20.

Unable to contain their curiosity and anger, the boy’s parents rush over to their new neighbor’s house, ready to demand an explanation. To their amazement, they discover their new neighbor quietly putting flowers in her front yard. Approaching her with conviction, the father says, “I’m the father of the kid you just sold a sports car to for $20.” “I need an explanation from you!”

The woman, still concentrating on her gardening, looks up and says calmly, “Well, this morning, I received a phone call from my husband.” I believed he was on a business trip in Florida, but it turns out he ran off to Hawaii with his secretary and has no plans to return.”

Perplexed, the mother interjects, “What on earth does that have to do with selling our son a Porsche for $20?” The new neighbor smiles brightly and pauses for a moment before responding, “Well, my husband asked me to sell his new Porsche and send him the proceeds. “So I did.”
