So I heard; I bet you`d get arrested less often as part of the
MAFIA sort than the government sort. . . but you get richer with the
latter. . .
An old mafia boss was at the end of his life
[Longish]
He knew he didn`t have much time left to live and he was getting
worried about where he might end up after his death if he did not get
absolution for his sins. He had been a very evil person and he knew that
any old village priest would not be able to do the job so instead he
arranged a meeting with the pope in Rome.
The pope listened to all the sins the mafia boss had committed. "I
can give you absolution for your sins," the pope said "but let me be
honest. It will take a lot of work and it is going to cost you"
The pope took out his calculator, added the numbers and answered.
"Fifty million dollars" the pope said.
That was a lot of money to the mafia boss. He had known it was
going to be expensive but he had not expected it to be that expensive.
He decided to get another offer so he arranged a meeting with the
patriarch in Moscow. The patriarch listened to his sins, nodded and poured
himself another glass of vodka. "I can give you absolution for your sins"
he said "but let me be honest. It will take a lot of work and it
is going to cost you"
The patriarch took out his calculator, added the numbers and answered.
"Twenty million dollars" the patriarch said.
That was sill a lot of money so the mafia boss decided to get a
third offer and arranged a meeting with the chief rabbi in Jerusalem. The
chief rabbi listened to his sins and said "I can give you absolution for
your sins, no problem".
"How much will it cost me?" the mafia boss asked.
The chief rabbi took out his calculator, added the numbers and answered
"Two hundred dollars" he said.
"The pope in Rome wanted fifty million dollars and the patriarch in
Moscow wanted twenty million. How can you do it so cheap?" the mafia boss
asked.
"Oh that`s easy," the chief rabbi answered "we call at local rates"
