The Ring
One Friday evening, a young man walked into a jewelry store with a beautiful young woman at his side. He told the jeweler he
was looking for a special ring for his girlfriend.
The jeweler looked through his inventory and brought out a $5,000 diamond solitaire ring.
The young man said, "I don't think you understand. I want something very, very special."
The jeweler nodded his head, went into the back room and came out with a ring with a stunning 10-carat princess cut diamond.
"This ring is certain to please the young lady but it's $50,000," the jeweler said.
The young lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body trembled with excitement.
Seeing this, the young man said, "We'll take it!"
The jeweler asked how payment would be made and the young man said, "I'll pay you by check. I know you need to make sure my
check is good, so I'll write it now and you can call the bank Monday to verify the funds. If this is satisfactory, I'll pick
up the ring Monday afternoon."
"That'd be fine," said the jeweler.
Monday morning rolled around and a very teed-off jeweler phoned the young man. "There's no money in your account!" said the
exasperated jeweler.
"I know", said the young man, "but God! Can you imagine the weekend I had?"
