A guy looking to become a bee farmer

A guy looking to become a bee farmer went to a seasoned Apiarist and asked if he could buy some bees off him to start up a hive.

The Apiarist said he had plenty to spare and was having a sale for 50 bees for $50…

The man bought the bees, went home and began putting the bees into the empty hive; he counted each one to make sure he got his moneys worth

but by the end of the gruelling task he realized he had not 50 but 51 bees.

He called the seasoned Apiarist and asked why he was given 51 bees when the sale was for 50.
