A New York attorney, representing a wealthy art collector, called his client and said to him, "Saul, I have some good news, and I have some bad news... "
The art collector replied, "I’ve had an awful day, let’s hear the good news first."
The attorney said, "Well, I met with your wife today, and she informed me that she invested $5,000 in two pictures, that she thinks will bring a minimum of $20,000,000 ."
"I think she could be right."
Saul replied enthusiastically, "Well done, you’ve just made my day!"
"My wife is a brilliant businesswoman!"
"Now I know I can handle the bad news, what is it?"
The attorney replied...
"The pictures are of you with your secretary."
