Moishe (the father) says to his son: "I want you to marry a girl of my choice."
The son says: "I will choose my own bride."
Moishe says: "But the girl is Bill Gates' daughter." [And they will convert her of course...]
The son answers: "Well, in that case, yes, okay."
Moishe then approaches Bill Gates and says: "I have a husband for your
daughter."
Bill Gates answers: "But my daughter is too young to get married!"
Moishe says: "But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank."
Bill Gates answers: "Ah, in that case, yes, okay."
Finally Moishe goes to see the president of the World Bank.
Moishe says: "I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president."
The president answers: "But I already have more vice-presidents than I need."
Moishe says: "But this young man is Bill Gates' son-in-law."
The President answers: "Ah, in that case, yes, okay."
And that is how successful Jews do business.....
