$280,000 Mortgage

[reelapeelin]

For his birthday, little Joseph asked for a 10-speed bicycle.

His father said, "Son, we like to give you one, but the mortgage on this house is $280,000 & your mother just lost her job.

There's no way we can afford it."

The next day the father saw little Joseph heading out the front door with a suitcase.

So he asked, "Son, where are you going?"

Little Joseph told him; "I was walking past your room last night and heard you telling mom you were pulling out.

Then I heard her tell you to wait because she was coming too.

And I'll be dammed if I'm staying here by myself with a $280,000 mortgage & No bike.
