Youngest son: Tell me Daddy, what is the difference between "potential and reality"? Dad: I will show you. Dad turns to his wife and asks: Would you sleep with Robert Redford for 1 million dollars? Wife: Yes of course! I would never waste such an opportunity! Then Dad asks his daughter if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for 1 million dollars? Daughter: Wow! Yes! This is my fantasy! Dad turns to his elder son: Would you sleep with Tom Cruise for 1 million dollars? Elder son: Yeah! Why not? Imagine what I could do with 1 million dollars! I would not even hesitate! So the father turns back to his younger son saying: You see son, 'potentially' we are sitting on 3 million dollars, but in 'reality' we are living with two hookers and a moffie!" ---
