Fresh out of business school, the young man
answered a want ad for an accountant. Now he was
being interviewed by a very nervous man who ran a
small business that he had started himself. "I need
someone with an accounting degree," the man said.
"But mainly, I'm looking for someone to do my
worrying for me."

"Excuse me?" the young accountant said.

"I worry about a lot of things," the man said. "But I
don't want to have to worry about money. Your job
will be to take all the money worries off my back."

"I see," the young accountant said. "And how much
does the job pay?"

"I will start you at $95,000."

"Ninety-five thousand dollars!" the young accountant
exclaimed. "How can such a small business afford a
sum like that?"

"That," the owner said, "is your first worry."
