why don't i have this in my inbox

It is the summertime in some small coastal European village. The place is deserted. There is a gloom in the air. Troubled economic times have left everyone in debt. The town folk live entirely on credit.

One day, an affluent tourist comes into town. He goes to the only hotel, lays a E100 (RM500) note on the reception desk, and asks to inspect the rooms in order to choose one.The hotel owner grabs the money and runs to pay his debt to the grocer. The grocer takes the money and runs to pay his debt to the farmer. The farmer takes the money and runs to pay his debt to the supplier of his pesticides and fuel.The supplier of pesticides and fuel takes the money and runs to pay the town prostitute who, in these difficult times, has been servicing her clients on credit. The prostitute then runs to the hotel and pays off the E100 she owes for the rooms she rented when she brought her clients there.

The owner of the hotel then places the E100 note back on the reception desk as to not arouse the suspicion of the tourist.Just then, the tourist comes back from inspecting the rooms. He tells the hotel proprietor that none of the rooms were to his liking. He takes his money and leaves.

No one has earned any money and yet the entire town is out of debt. Problem solved. Crisis over.


does this make sense?
i think i see it now
