One day, a wife called her husband while he was at the club.
“Hello?” the husband answered.
“Honey, it’s me. Are you at the club?” the wife asked.
“Yes,” he replied.
“Great! I am at the mall two blocks from where you are. I just saw a beautiful mink coat. It’s absolutely gorgeous! Can I buy it?” she inquired.
“What’s the price?” the husband asked.
“Only $1,500,” she said.
“Well, OK, go ahead and get it if you like it that much,” he agreed.
Feeling confident, the wife continued, “Ahhh, and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership and saw the 2021 models.
I saw one I really liked. I spoke with the salesman, and he gave me a really good price. Since we need to exchange the BMW that we bought last year…”
“What price did he quote you?” the husband asked.
“Only $60,000,” she answered.
“OK, but for that price, I want it with all the options,” he insisted.
“Great! But before we hang up, there’s something else…” she added.
“What?” he asked.
“It might seem like a lot, but I was reconciling your bank account and I stopped by the real estate agent this morning. I saw the house we had looked at last year.
It’s on sale! Remember? The one with a pool, an English garden, an acre of park area, and beachfront property,” she explained.
“How much are they asking?” the husband asked.
“Only $450,000—a magnificent price—and I see that we have that much in the bank to cover it,” she stated.
“Well, then go ahead and buy it, but just bid $420,000, OK?” he suggested.
“OK, sweetie. Thanks! I’ll see you later! I love you!” she exclaimed.
“Bye… I love you too,” the husband said.
After hanging up, the man closed the phone’s flap, raised his hand while holding the phone, and asked everyone around him, “Does anyone know who this phone belongs to?”
