In some other cultures, getting spanked or whipped was believed to be good luck.

So, if some of you wish to torment a client who has come for a visit for a different purpose,

one idea to include is to say,

"How would it be good if I help you win in the lottery?"

"Good."

"Ok, well, I want you to promise to buy a ticket and to consider sharing some of the winnings if you win."

"OK."

"Let me restrain you a little."

"k."

"Well, the thing is that getting spanked or caned or whipped is good luck. The Chinese believe it is and there are other cultures that also believed it. So, I'll need to cane or whip you. I think 200 strokes should be fine."

"I hope that is not a problem."

"Well, this is not what I was expecting."

"It never is. We could skip the caning or whipping, but I think that is quite bad luck, and you might not win anything in the lottery and I assume you won't be sharing any of the winnings with me. What shall it be?"
