Recently heard this one, I like it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

If you decide to find the answer and post it, please use the "spoiler"-color, so I can enjoy the illusion of a huge amount of people having their brain teased for a while, ok? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

I'll post the answer in a few days if no one happens to find it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

A man bought bananas at $3/piece. He sold them at $2/piece.
He made a habit of it and eventually became a millionaire.
How did he do that?


Some clarifications:
- A piece = 1 banana, and the only bananas he sold are the exact same ones that he bought
- The fact that he became a millionaire is a direct consequence of what he did as described in the riddle
- Let's assume a dollar has a steady value (to not complicate things too much <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> )
