A charity collector knocks on the door of a wealthy man’s mansion.
The man opens the door, and the collector says, “Good afternoon, sir. I’m from the local charity. Our records show that you haven’t contributed anything to our cause, despite your apparent wealth. Would you be willing to make a donation to help those in need?” The wealthy man looks at the collector and says, “Do your records show that I have an elderly mother who is struggling to pay her medical bills?” The collector, looking concerned, replies, “No, sir, we didn’t know that.” The man continues, “Do your records show that my brother lost his job and is drowning in debt?” The man goes on, “Do your records show that my sister is a single mother with three kids who can barely make ends meet?” The collector, feeling sympathetic, responds, “No, sir, I had no idea your family was going through such tough times.” The man then leans in and says, “Well, if I’m not giving them any money, what makes you think I’m going to give any to you?”
