Sometimes it PAYS to be OLD!

By
Real Estate Agent with QUEST REALTY SERVICES

No one believes seniors . . . everyone  thinks they're senile.

   An Elderly couple was celebrating their sixtieth anniversary. The couple had married as childhood sweethearts and  had moved back to their old neighborhood after they retired. 

Holding hands they walked back to their  old school. It was not locked, so they entered, and found the old desk they'd shared, where Andy had carved "I love you, Sally."  

On their way back home, a bag of money fell out of an  armored car, practically landing at their feet Sally quickly picked it up,  but not sure what to do with it, they took it home. There, she counted the  money--fifty-thousand dollars.

Andy said, "We've got to give it back." Sally said, "Finders keepers." She  put the money back in the bag and hid it in their attic.  

The next day, two FBI men were canvassing the neighborhood  looking for the money, and knocked on the door. "Pardon me, but  did either of you find a bag that fell out of an armored car yesterday?" Sally said, "No." Andy said, "She's lying. She  hid it up in the attic." Sally said, "Don't believe him,  he's getting senile."

The agents turn to Andy and began to  question him. One says:  "Tell us the story from the beginning" Andy said, "Well,  when Sally and I were walking home from school yesterday . . " 

The first FBI guy turns to his partner and  says, "We're outta here."
