A young twenty-something guy inherited $100,000 right after he earned his MBA. He knew that amount of money wouldn't be enough to live on for very long so he came up with a brilliant idea.
He invested the money and had himself cryogenically stored, long enough for the power of time to turn his inheritance into a fortune. That way, he wouldn't have to work a single day of his life.
One hundred years later, he was brought out of his suspended animation, and immediately called his broker's office to find out his balance.
When told his account now held just over 100-million dollars, he gleefully shouted, "Yes! I did it. I'M RICH!"
In his euphoria, he was doing a happy dance of celebration when he realized that he was still holding the phone.
A robotic voice came on the line and said, "If you'd like to continue this call, please deposit 10-million dollars for the next three minutes."
