A young boy enters a barbershop… the barber whispers to his customer, “This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch.”
The barber puts a dollar in one open palm and two quarters in the other and asks the kid, “Which do you want?”


The boy takes the quarters and leaves.


“What did I tell you?” says the barber. “That kid never learns!”


Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store. “Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why’d you take the quarters and not the dollar?” he asks.


The boy licked his cone and replied, “Because the day I take the dollar, the game’s over!”
