A New York attorney representing a wealthy art collector called his client.
"Paul, I have some good news, and I have some bad news."
The art collector replied, "I've had an awful day. Give me the good news first."
The lawyer said, "Well, I met with your wife today, and she informed me that she's just invested $5,000 in two pictures that she thinks would bring a minimum of $15 million to $20 million, and I think she could be right."
Paul replied enthusiastically, "Well done! My wife is a brilliant businesswoman! Youve just made my day. Now I know I can handle the bad news. What is it?"
