\u201cA popular speaker started off a seminar by holding up a $20 bill. A crowd of 200 had gathered to hear him speak. He asked, \u2018Who would like this $20 bill?\u2019<\/p>\n
200 hands went up.<\/p>\n
He said, \u2018I am going to give this $20 to one of you but first, let me do this.\u2019 He crumpled the bill up.<\/p>\n
He then asked, \u2018Who still wants it?\u2019<\/p>\n
All 200 hands were still raised.<\/p>\n
\u2018Well,\u2019 he replied, \u2018What if I do this?\u2019 Then he dropped the bill on the ground and stomped on it with his shoes.<\/p>\n
He picked it up, and showed it to the crowd. The bill was all crumpled and dirty.<\/p>\n

All the hands still went up.<\/p>\n
