Who wants to be a millionaire?

No sense of humor…

My wife and I were watching Who Wants to be A Millionaire while we were in bed.

I turned to her and said, “Do you want to have sex?”

“No!” she answered.

I then said, “Is that your final answer?”

“Yes,” she replied.

Then I said, “I’d like to phone a friend.” That’s the last thing I remember.

The wife in this story gets to have the final say.

In most sales negotiations however, the customer has the final say.

Their threat to “phone a friend (re:competitors)” is always there.

Customers are rarely chained to you by the vows of marriage.
