It is because of the business sense demonstrated below.
An Indian walks into a New York City bank and asks to see theloan officer. He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks andneeds to borrow $5,000.
The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for such aloan, so the man hands over the keys ofa new Rolls Royce parked on the street in front of the bank.Everything is checked out, and the bank agrees to accept thecar as collateral for the loan. An employee drives theRolls into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.
Two weeks later, the man returns, repays the $5,000 and theinterest, which comes to $15.41. The loan officersays, "We are very happy to have had your business, and thistransaction has worked out very nicely,but we are alittle puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and foundthat you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is why would you botherto borrow $5,000?"
The Indian replied,” Where else in New York can I park my car for two weeksfor 15 bucks?"Cheers!
Indians are Indians... Smart
