The Richest Boy In The World
Once upon a time, there was a boy whose family was very wealthy. One day, his father took him on a trip to the country, where he aimed to show his son how poor people lived.
So they arrived at a farm of a very poor family, as the father considered.
They spent several days there.
On their return, the father asked his son if he liked the trip. "Oh, it was great father!" -the boy replied.
The father added: "Did you notice how poor people lived?", to which the boy replied: "Yes, I did father."
So he asked his son to tell him more details about his impressions from the trip.
"Well, we have only one dog, but they have four of them. In our garden there is a pool, while they have a river that has no end. We have got expensive lanterns, but they have the stars above their heads at night. We have the balcony, but they have the whole horizon. We have only a small piece of land, where as they have the endless fields. We buy food, buy they grow it. We have a high fence for protection of our property, but they do not need it, as their friends protect them.", spoke the boy.
The father was stunned. He could not utter a single word.
Then the boy added: "Thank you father, for letting me see how poor we truly are".
