Johnny is offered to choose between a nickel and a dime

Little Johnny is always being teased by the other neighborhood boys for being a bit slow.

Their favorite joke is to offer Johnny his choice between a nickel and a dime. Little Johnny always picks the nickel.

One day, after Johnny picks the nickel again, a kind neighbor pulls him aside and says, “Johnny, those boys are making fun of you. Don’t you know that a dime is worth more than a nickel, even though the nickel is bigger?”

Johnny grins and replies, “Well, if I took the dime, they’d stop doing it. So far, I’ve made $20!”
