Vaisesika das: So the bank was right under the guest house. That’s actually where Prabhupada’s room is now, where we have Bhagavad-gita class. They opened a bank and all the devotees crowded in, and Prabhupada was inside and he was inaugurating the bank and he told this joke.
I was craning through the little screen window to hear what he was saying and he said, “So one man heard that money attracts money. So he went into the bank and he put his money on the counter, and the teller took his money and put it in the till and said, ‘Yes? Can I help you?’ The man said, ‘Well, I heard that money attracts money, so put my money in there,’ and he said, ‘Yes, but our money is attracting your money.'” Prabhupada laughed and everyone laughed, and that was his joke that he told.
