K this one my teacher told me. I hope I dont mess it up.
A non-Jew (let’s call him Jose) once passed by a shul and he saw someone coming out with a lot of money. He asked the man how he got it, and he said he just goes around collecting. So the Jose decided that the next day, instead of going to work, he’s going to go collecting in shul. So the next day, all day, he stood outside the shul with his hat outstretched. He didn’t do so well – a few dimes and quarters. But then he saw someone come out of the shul with one-dollar bills. So the next day, he followed that man into the shul and listened how he said “tzeddaka tzeddaka” and watched how the people in shul gave him one dollar bills. The next day, Jose put his new knowledge into action, and spent the whole day in shul saying “tzeddaka, tzeddaka”, and sure enough, by the end of the day, he came out with a stack of ones. All proud of himself, he walked away from the shul, but then…. he saw another man come out of the shul, this time with fives and tens. The next day, Jose followed the man and watched as the man said “oni, oni (poor person)” and got fives and tens. So the following day, Jose went to shul and collected, saying “oni oni” and as predicted, he came out of shul with fives and tens. But as he exited, he saw another man coming out with 20s. Now this time Jose was excited. He saw the next day that the man was saying “choileh, choileh (sick person)” and got 20-dollar bills, so Jose did that too the next day, and got… 20-dollar bills. Jose was so proud of himself for being such a good “business man”, until he saw someone coming out with………. 50-dollar bills. Now this time, Jose knew he needed to follow that man around, and he’ll be making a fortune. So the following day, he watched as the man said “ger tzedek (convert)” and got a lot of 50s. So Jose followed suit and came out with a thick wad of 50-dollar bills. Happy with his “catch”, Jose began to walk home, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a man come out of shul with a large pile of 100-dollar bills. Now, that, Jose though, was the ultimate. And the next day, he observed how the man walked around the shul, saying “einekel fun de rebbeh (grandson of the Rabbi)” and collected another stack of 100-s. Now Jose wasn’t too bright, but that night, he had a brainstorm. If he got a certain amount of money from saying one thing, what would happen if he made a combination? So the next day in shul, Jose walked around saying “ger tzedek, einekel fun de rebbeh”…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
