A distinguished looking, somewhat older gentleman walked into a jeweler's shop late one Friday evening. At his side was a considerably younger, voluptuously beautiful woman.
"I'm looking for a special ring for my girlfriend" he said.
The jeweler looked through his stock and presented the couple an outstanding ring priced at $5,000.
"I don't think you understand," the gentleman said, "I want something really unique."
At that, the jeweler went and fetched his special stock from the safe.
"Here's one stunning ring at $40,000."
The woman's eyes flared wide open and sparkled, and the man said that he would take it.
"Yes, sir, very excellent choice. And how will you be paying for this ring?"
"I'd prefer to pay by check. Of course, the bank will want to make sure that everything is in order; so, I'll write you the check now and you can phone the bank on Monday before I come to pick up the ring."
Monday morning a very distressed jeweler phoned the man. "Sir, I'm sorry to tell you; but, the bank says that there's no money in that account at all!"
"I know," came the reply; "but can you imagine what a fantastic weekend I had?"
