Honesty 誠實
一個投資顧問決定自立門戶，成立她自己的公司。因為精明和勤奮，她的生意很快就越來越紅火了。於是不久，她就意識到她得請一個專門的法律顧問。這個投資銀行家就開始面試一些年輕的律師。
“我相信您一定能理解，” 她對第一個申請者說，“做我們這種生意的，個人信譽必須是毫無疑問的。”她往前湊了湊說，“Mayberry先生，您是個誠實的律師嗎？”
“誠實？”應試者答道。“我告訴您一件有關誠實的事吧。我是如此誠實，我爸借給我一萬五千美金上學，我在接手第一個案子後就還清了每一分錢。”
“真不錯。那是個什麼樣的案子呢？” 投資顧問問。
他有點不安地扭了扭身子，承認道，“我老爸為了那筆錢起訴我。”
