John visits his friend David, a fellow businessman, and clearly impressed asks him; "David, how do you keep this place running so smooth?"

"Easy," she said. "I surround myself with people who actually have a brain. Watch." He calls his Chief Financial Officer and asks, "He’s your father’s son, but he’s not your brother. Who is he?"

The CFO responds almost immediately: "That’s me."

John is floored. He flies home, calls his own CFO, and says, "Mike, I’ve got a test for you. He’s your father’s son, but he’s not your brother. Who is he?"

The CFO stammers for twenty minutes before asking for 24 hours to "research" it. He panics and calls Warren Buffet. "Sir, quick question: Your father’s son, but not your brother. Who is it?"

Buffet sighs. "It’s me, Mike."

Mike runs to his boss, all proud. "Sir! I have the answer! It’s Warren Buffet!"

John slams his desk. "No, you idiot! It’s David's finance guy!"
