Once upon a time there was an old farmer lived in a small village with his wife and two sons. The old farmer was not very rich, he only had two small stalls. In spite of being poor the farmer and his family lived happily.
One day the old farmer was sick. Feeling that he was going to meet his end ,the old farmer called his sons. "Sons ,I'm going to die"He said. Before I die, I'll leave you two message. First, both of you are not allowed to ask people whom you lend your money to.Second you are not allowed to get suntanned either you go out of come back to your house.
Years passed by. The oldest become a rich man.On the other hand, the younger son became a poor. Then the mother came to the oldest son and asked " Why do you become rich?. Do you obey what your father asked? The oldest son answered ;"yes mother ,I do what father asked. I never lend my money to other people so I can use my money to buy and sell things. I go out of the house before dawn so people know that my stall opened earlier than others.I closed my stall at night so people knew that it closed later than the others.
Then the mother asked the younger the same questions. He said " Because father asked me not to ask people to pay their debts so my money get lessened. At last I have no money to buy and sell things.I always use commuter for transportation,so I have to spend extra money for that. I have nothing left ,so I become poor.
