Concerned about his son's future, a man decided to test the youngster. He would put the lad in a room with only a Bible, an apple, and a five dollar gold piece. If the boy sat down and read the Bible, a career in the ministry would be indicated. The boy would become a farmer if he ate the apple. A banking career would be suggested if the boy toyed with the money.

The boy was brought in. Sitting on the Bible, he chewed on the apple. After mulling it over, he put the coin in his pocket.

The man smiled. His son would be a politician!
