A young boy went up to his father and asked him, "Dad, what is the difference between potentially and realistically?" The father thought for a moment, then answered, "Go ask your mother if she would sleep with Robert Redford for a million quid. Then ask your sister if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million quid, and ask your brother if he'd sleep with Tom Cruise for a million quid. Come back and tell me what you learn from that". So the boy went to his mother and asked, "Would you sleep with Robert Redford for a million quid?" The mother replied, "Of course I would! We could really use that money to fix up the house and send you kids to university!" The boy then went to his sister and asked, "Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million quid?" The girl replied, "Oh my God! I LOVE Brad Pitt! I would sleep with him in a heartbeat, are you nuts?" The boy then went to his brother and asked,"Would you sleep with Tom Cruise for a million quid?" "Of course," the brother replied.
"Do you know how much a million could buy?" The boy pondered that for a few days, then went back to his dad. His father asked him, "Well, did you find out the difference between potentially and realistically?" The boy replied, "Yes I did. Potentially, we're sitting on three million quid, but realistically, we're living with two hang-outs and a shirtlifter."
