SHAMING HIS PARENTS

An Arab Emir’s son was sent to study in Germany. After about a month, he wrote a letter to his parents, in which he described Berlin in glowing words, praised the studies and told them about his new friends. At the end of the letter, he added:

“There is only one thing that causes me a certain degree of embarrassment, I get to the Uni in my golden Mercedes, but the faculty arrives in the Metro”.

No more than ten day later, his parents replied:

“Our darling son, in the envelope you will find a check in the amount of million Euros. Please do not put us to shame, buy yourself a Metro.”
