A man walks past a beggar every day and gives him $2, and that continues for a year.
\nThen suddenly the daily donation changes to $1.50.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell,\u201d he thinks, \u201cit\u2019s always better than nothing.\u201d<\/p>\n
A year passes in this way until the man\u2019s daily donation suddenly becomes $1.00.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat\u2019s going on now?\u201d The beggar asks his donor.<\/p>\n
\u201cFirst you give me $2 every day, then $1.50, and now only $1, what\u2019s the problem?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWell,\u201d the man says, \u201cmy eldest son went to college last year. It\u2019s very expensive so I had to cut the costs. This year my eldest daughter also went to university, so I had to cut my expenses even further.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd how many children do you have?\u201d Asks the beggar.<\/p>\n
\u201cFour,\u201d the man replies.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell,\u201d says the beggar, \u201cI hope you don\u2019t plan to educate them all at my expense.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
