It adds up
The debt expert was helping a worried householder. "Let's begin with how you spend your present income."
"Well, about 30 per cent is for the mortgage, 10 per cent on household bills, 20 per cent on food and clothes, 20 per cent on our children's education, 10 per cent on holidays, 20 percent on credit card payments.... "
"But that adds up to 110 per cent...."
"Yes, that's right. So what do we do?"
Egg
Farmer: "Isn't it wonderful how the little chicks get out of their shells?"
Visitor from city: "Indeed. But what gets me is how they get in there, in the first place."
