How Greeks Do Business CON talks to his son George. CON (father): "I want you to marry a girl of my choice." GEORGE (son): "I will choose my own bride!" CON (father): "But the girl is Bill Gates' daughter.." GEORGE (son): "Well, in that case... okay." Next CON approaches Bill Gates. CON (father): "I have a husband for your daughter.... " Bill Gates: "But my daughter is too young to marry!" CON (father): "But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank." Bill Gates: "Ah! In that case... okay." Finally, CON goes to see the president of the World Bank. CON: "I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president." President: "But I already have more vice-presidents than I need!" CON: "But this young man is Bill Gates' son-in-law." President: "Ah, in that case... okay." And that is how Greeks do business.
