Ira Mandelbaum was a very successful businessman who had a textile factory. After his daughter and son-in-law settled into married life he decided to call in his new son-in-law for a meeting.

"I love my daughter, and now I welcome you into the family," Mandelbaum said. "To show you how much we care for you, I'm making you a 50-50 partner in my business. All you have to do is go to the factory every day and learn the operations."

The son-in-law interrupted, "I hate factories. I can't stand the noise."

"I see," replied Mr. Mandelbaum. "Well then, you'll work in the office and take charge of some of the operations."

"I hate office work," said the son-on-law. "I can't stand being stuck behind a desk all day."

"Wait a minute," said Mr. Mandelbaum. "I just make you half-owner of a moneymaking organization, but you don't like factories and won't work in an office. I was told you have a good head for business!"

“I do,” said the young man.

“Prove it,” said Mr. Mandelbaum.

"I have a perfect solution for both of us," said the young man. "Buy me out!"
