"Where did that car come from?" his parents yell, shocked.
"I bought it today," the boy replies calmly.
"With what money, my boy?" his mother exclaims. "We know how much a Porsche costs, and you can't afford it!"
"Well, it's used, and I got a good deal," the boy says. "I paid $20 for it."
"Who would sell a car like that for $20?!"
"The lady down the street," he replies. "I don't know her name, she just moved. She ordered a pizza, and when I delivered it to her, she asked me if I wanted to buy a Porsche for $20."
The parents, in disbelief, rush to their new neighbor for an explanation. They find her calmly planting flowers in the yard.
"We are the parents of the boy to whom you sold a Porsche for $20," says the father. "We would like an explanation!"
A 17-year-old boy who works part-time at Pizza Hut pulls up to their house, parking a beautiful Porsche. Of course, his parents know that he couldn't have earned enough from his after-school job to afford such a car
"Well," says the woman, still planting flowers, "I got a call from my husband this morning. I thought he was on a business trip in Florida, but apparently he ran off to Hawaii with his secretary and has no intention of coming back."
"But what does this have to do with selling our son a Porsche for $20?" asks the mother, completely confused.
The neighbor smiles broadly, pauses for a moment, and says,
"Well, my husband asked me to sell him his new Porsche and send him the money.
So I did."
