One day, little Johnny asked his father for a $200 bicycle for his birthday. His father replied, "Johnny, we have an $80,000 mortgage on the house. Wait until Christmas."

When Christmas arrived, Johnny asked again. His father said, "The mortgage is still very high. Ask me another time."

Two days later, Johnny was seen leaving the house with all his belongings in a suitcase. His father asked why he was leaving. Johnny explained, "Yesterday, I heard you tell Mommy you were 'pulling out,' and she said to wait because she was 'coming too.' Well, I'll be damned if I'm left stuck with an $80,000 mortgage!"
