        A Ricksha puller and a millionaire 

Once upon a time there lived a happy ricksha puller who passed his days in working and singing during whole days.A rich businessman neighbor who was a malty millionaire said to him one day ,"How much a year do you earn?"

The ricksha puller replied ,"How much a year,sir?I never count in that way.I work hard and live from hand to mouth".

The millionaire said,"I have decided to place you above the fear of want and make you happy.Take these thousand dollars,preserve them carefully and use them in times of need".

 

The ricksha puller was amazed to have so much money.But another thought crossed his mind.He became anxious about the security of money.The ricksha puller who had never seen so much money at a time in his life before,hurried home.He could not decide where he would keep his money.At last he dug earth and buried his  treasure in the earth.But alas!he buried his happiness with it too.

 One day he met the millionaire and said,"Sir,please take your money back .I can't sleep well.Your money has robbed me of my peace and happiness.

Moral:- Money can not bring happiness.
