A miser sold all his things, bought a piece of gold, buried it in a hole by an old wall, and went to see it every day. One of his workers noticed that he often went to the S pot and decided to observe his actions. He soon discovered the secret of the hidden treasure, dug down, found the gold nugget and stole it. When the miser came for the second time, he found that the hole was empty and began to pull his hair and lament loudly. A neighbor, seeing that he had overcome his sadness and the reasons for studying, said, "Please don't be sad; But take a stone, put it in the hole and imagine that the gold is still lying there. It will give you the same service; Because when the gold was there, you didn't, because you didn't use it at all. "

A miser sold all his possessions for gold bars and buried them in a secret place. He goes to see his treasure every day. A shepherd herding sheep nearby observed carefully and learned the truth. After he left, he dug up the gold nuggets and took them away. When the miser came again, he found that the gold in the hole was gone, so he beat his chest and wept bitterly. A man saw him so sad, asked the reason and said, "hey, friend, don't be sad again." Although you bought gold, you don't really own it. " Take a stone instead of gold and put it in the hole. As long as you think it is gold, you will be very happy. This is no different from the real gold nugget effect. In my opinion, you never used that gold nugget when you owned it. "

This story shows that if all the property is useless, it is meaningless.

Is that okay?
