Got emailed this today, maybe to late for someone like Enron though.........
Corporate lesson-1
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is
finishing up her
shower
when the doorbell rings. After a few seconds of
arguing over which one
should go and answer the doorbell, the wife gives up,
quickly wraps
herself
up in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the
door, there
stands
Bob, the next door neighbor. Before she says a word,
Bob says,"I'll
give you
800 dollars to drop that towel that you have on."
After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel
and stands naked
in
front of Bob. After a few seconds, Bob hands her 800
dollars and
leaves.
Confused, but excited about her good fortune, the
woman wraps back up
in the
towel and goes back upstairs.When she gets back to the
bathroom, her
husband
asks from the shower "Who was that?" "It was Bob the
next door
neighbor,"
she replies. "Great," the husband
says, "did he say anything about the 800 dollars he
owes me?"
Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit
and risk in time
with
your stakeholders, you may be in a position to prevent
avoidable
