A man is sitting in the barber chair getting a haircut when a young boy walks in. The barber whispers to the man, "This is the stupidest kid in the world. I'll prove it. I have a little game I play with him every time he comes in."

The barber calls the boy over and holds out both hands. In one hand is a dollar bill, in the other hand is 2 quarters. The barber then asks the boy which he would rather have? The boy takes the 2 quarters and walks out of the barber shop. "See? I told you," said the barber. "That kid is an idiot."

After his haircut, the man walks down the street and sees the boy standing on the corner. He approaches the boy and asks him: "Why did you take the 2 quarters instead of the dollar bill?"

The boy says, "Because the day I take the dollar the game is over."
