问题的关键

一男士患了心脏病，就去找医生，看他会给出什么意见。

自然，医生建议做心脏移植。

男士勉强同意了，然后问心脏是否可以立即得到，因为钱不是问题。

“我这里倒是有三个心脏，”医生说。“第一个是一个18岁小孩的，他不吸烟，喜欢运动，是个游泳运动员，饮食很好。他是因头撞在泳池上死亡的。这个心脏要10万美元。第二个是一位马拉松运动员的，25岁，身体状况很好，非常强壮。他被巴士撞了。这个心脏要15万美元。第三个是一个嗜酒如命、抽雪茄、爱吃牛排的人的。这个心脏要50万美元。”

“嘿，这个心脏怎么这么贵？他过的可是一种可怕的生活！”

“是的，但它是一个律师的。它还从未被使用过。”

The Heart Of The Matter

A man who was having heart trouble went to the doctor to see what his options were.

Naturally, the doctor recommended a heart transplant.

The man reluctantly agreed, and asked if there were any hearts immediately available, considering that money was no object.

"I do have three hearts," said the doctor. "The first is from an 18-year old kid, non-smoker, athletic, swimmer, with a great diet. He hit his head on the swimming pool and died. It's $100,000. The second is from a marathon runner, 25 years old, great condition, very strong. He got hit by a bus. It's $150,000. The third is from a heavy drinker, cigar smoker, steak lover. It's $500,000."

"Hey, why is that heart so expensive? He lived a terrible life!"

"Yes, but it's from a laywer. It's never been used."
