One night, a husband arrived home much later than usual, looking unusually pleased with himself.
Unfortunately for him, his wife was waiting right by the front door.
Arms crossed, eyebrows raised, and clearly in no mood for excuses.
“Where the hell have you been?” she demanded.
The husband casually tossed his keys onto the table and smiled.
“Oh, relax, honey. I just stopped by a tattoo parlor.”
His wife blinked.
“A tattoo parlor?!”
“Yep!” he replied proudly. “Finally decided to get myself a tattoo.”
She stared at him in disbelief.
“You? A tattoo? Since when have you wanted a tattoo?”
He shrugged.
“Well, I’ve been thinking about it for a while, and tonight seemed like the perfect opportunity.”
His wife took a deep breath, trying to remain calm.
“Alright. What kind of tattoo did you get?”
The husband grinned from ear to ear.
“I got a hundred-dollar bill tattooed on my manhood.”
For a moment, his wife was completely speechless.
She opened her mouth, closed it again, and stared at him as though he’d completely lost his mind.
“A HUNDRED-DOLLAR BILL?! On your penis?!”
He nodded enthusiastically.
“That’s right!”
She threw her hands into the air.
“Have you gone absolutely crazy?! Of all the ridiculous things you could have tattooed on your body, why on earth would you choose THAT?!”
The husband chuckled.
“Actually, sweetheart, I gave it a lot of thought.”
“Oh, I’m sure you did!” she snapped sarcastically.
He leaned against the kitchen counter, looking extremely proud of himself.
“As a matter of fact, I had three very good reasons for choosing it.”
His wife rolled her eyes.
“Oh, this ought to be good. Let’s hear them!”
He grins and says,
”Well, for three reasons:
One—I like to watch my money grow.
Two—every now and then, I enjoy playing with my money.
And three—this way, instead of going shopping, you can stay home and blow a hundred bucks.”
