A city boy, Kenny, moved to the country and bought a donkey from an
old farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next
day.

The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad
news, the donkey died."  Kenny replied, "Well then, just give me my money
back." The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already." Kenny
said, "OK then, at least give me the donkey." The farmer asked, "What ya
gonna do with him?" Kenny, "I'm going to raffle him off." Farmer, " You can't
raffle off a dead donkey!" Kenny, "Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell
anybody he is dead."

A month later the farmer met up with Kenny and asked, "What happened with
 that dead donkey?" Kenny, "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two
 dollars a piece and made a profit of $998." Farmer, "Didn't anyone
 complain?" Kenny, "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars
 back." Kenny grew up and eventually became the Chief Financial Officer of
 WorldCom
