Entrepreneurship



------------------------------------------------------------------------


A city boy, Kenny, moved to the country and bought a donkey from an 
old farmer for $100.00. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the 
next day.

The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some 
bad news, the donkey died."

Kenny: "Well then, just give me my money back."
Farmer: "Can't do that. I went and spent it already."
Kenny: "OK then, just unload the donkey."
Farmer: "What ya gonna do with him?"
Kenny: "I'm going to raffle him off."
Farmer: "You can't raffle off a dead donkey!"
Kenny: "Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he is dead."

A month later the farmer met up with Kenny and asked, "What happened 
with that dead donkey?"

Kenny: "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece 
and made a net profit of $898.00."

Farmer: "Didn't anyone complain?"

Kenny: "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back."


Kenny grew up and eventually became the chairman of Enron.
