“One day, a rich Dad took his son on a trip. He wanted to show him how poor someone can be. They spent time on the farm of a poor family. On the way home, Dad asked, did you see how poor they are? What did you learn? Son said, we have one dog, they have four. We have a pool, they have rivers. We have lanterns at night, they have stars all around. We buy food, they grow theirs. We have fence and walls to protect us, they have friends. We have encyclopedia, they have a Bible. Then the boy added: Thanks Dad for showing how poor we are. It's not about money that put you in reaches, it's about simplicity.”
