The Grandmother’s €2 Million Bet Wasn’t What He Expected…
An old lady walks into Deutsche Bank with an Aldi bag and tells the counter that she wants to invest 2 million euros – “but only with the board of directors personally.”
The woman at the counter calls the board of directors and then sends the grandmother upstairs. Once there, the board member asks the grandmother where she got the 2 million euros from.
“I won the bet!”
“While betting?” the board member asks.
“Yes,” says the grandma, “if you want, I’ll bet with you too.”
“What do you want to bet with me?” asked the board member.
“I bet you that by 3 p.m. tomorrow your eggs will be square. My stake: 500,000 euros.”
The board accepts the bet. The grandmother has barely left the house when he immediately calls his doctor and asks if it’s possible. The doctor reassures him and congratulates him on winning 500,000 euros.
After a very restless night with multiple checks, it is finally 3:00 PM.
The door opens and the grandmother enters the office.
“Hello,” says the grandma, “I’ve brought my lawyer along to make sure everything is done properly!”
“No problem,” said the board member, “but ma’am – you’ve lost the bet. My eggs aren’t square!”
“Of course, you’ll have to prove that to me first,” says the grandmother. “I have to see and touch your eggs, otherwise you’ve lost.”
With a bright red face, the board member pu-lls d0wn his tr0users and lets the grandmother take a look.
The board says with concern:
“Your lawyer just fainted!”
“No wonder,” says the grandma, “I bet him 2 million euros that I would grab the board of Deutsche Bank by the b@lls today!”
