A young man named Donald bought a horse from a farmer for $250. The farmer agreed to deliver the horse the next day. The next day, the farmer drove up to Donald's house and said, â Sorry son, but I have some bad news, the horse died. â
Donald replied, â Well, then just give me my money back. â
The farmer said, â Can â t do that. I went and spent it already. â
Donald said, â OK, then, just bring me the dead horse. â
The farmer asked, â What ya gonna do with him? â
Donald said, â Iâm going to raffle him off. â
The farmer said, â You canât raffle off a dead horse! â
Donald said, â Sure I can. Watch me. I just wonât tell anybody heâs dead. â
A month later, the farmer met up with Donald and asked, â What happened with that dead horse? â
Donald said, â I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at five dollars apiece and made a profit of $2,495. â
The farmer said, â Didnât anyone complain? â
Donald said, â Just the guy who won. So I gave him his five dollars back. â
Donald just moved into the White House.
