Business Logic and Strategy

Father: 'I want you to marry a girl of my choice'
Son: 'I will choose my own bride!'
Father: 'But the girl is Bill Gates's daughter'
Son: 'Well, in that case...ok'


Next Father approaches Bill Gates.
Father: 'I have a husband for your daughter'
Bill Gates: 'But my daughter is too young to marry!'
Father: 'But this young man is a vice-president of the World Bank'
Bill Gates: 'Ah, in that case... ok'


Finally Father goes to see the president of the World Bank.
Father: 'I have a young man to be recommended as a vice-president'
President: 'But I already have more vice- presidents than I need!'
Father: 'But this young man is Bill Gates' son-in-law'
President: 'Ah, in that case...ok'

And that, my friends, is how business is done!!
