A couple spent years and years scrimping and saving, until one day the husband told his wife the good news.
“Honey”, he said, “we have finally saved enough money to buy what we started saving for in 1999”.
His wife’s eyes lit up as she realized what that meant.
“You mean a brand new Cadillac?”, she asked eagerly.
“No”, said the husband, “not quite. A 1999 Cadillac”.
