Ever since I was a child, I've always had a fear of someone under my bed at night.
So I went to a shrink and told him, "I've got problems. Every time I go to bed I think there's somebody under it.
I'm scared and I think I'm going crazy."
"Just put yourself in my hands for one year", said the shrink "Come in and talk to me three times a week and we should be able to get rid of those fears".
“How much do you charge?",I asked.
"Eighty dollars per visit", replied the doctor.
"I'll sleep on it", I said.
Six months later the doctor met me on the street. "Why didn't you come to see me about those fears you were having?", he asked.
"Well, eighty bucks a visit, three times a week for a year is $12,480.00.
A bartender cured me for $10.00. I was so happy to have saved all that
money that I went and bought me a new pickup truck."
"Is that so?" With a bit of an attitude, he said, "and how, may I ask, did
a bartender cure you?"
"He told me to cut the legs off the bed. Ain't nobody under there now!"
ALWAYS BETTER TO GET A SECOND OPINION!
Ahhh...if only I had known this when I was six years old!!
