| A local charity office realized that it had never received a donation from the towns most successful Jewish lawyer. The director called him, hoping to get a contribution. "Our research shows that out of a yearly income of at least $500,000, you've given not a penny to charity. Wouldn't you like to give back to the community in some way?" The lawyer replied, "First, did your research also show that my mother is dying after a long illness, and has medical bills that are several times her annual income?" Embarrassed, the director mumbled, Um...no. "Or that my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind and confined to a wheelchair?" The stricken director began to stammer out an apology but was interrupted. "Or that my sister's husband died in a car accident" the lawyers voice rising in indignation, "leaving her penniless with three children?!" The humiliated director said simply, "I had no idea" "So if I don't give any money to them, why the hell would I give any to you?" |    |
