the old lady and the hearing-aid story

the old lady and the hearing-aid story (assumptions about weaknesses, underestimating people, tactical advantage)

An old lady had a hearing-aid fitted, hidden underneath her hair.

A week later she returned to the doctor for her check-up.

"It's wonderful - I can hear everything now," she reported very happily to the doctor.

"And is your family pleased too?" asked the doctor.

"Oh I haven't told them yet," said the old lady, "And I've changed my will twice already.."
