The Rich Man and his Travels

A rich man was very fond of travelling. Most of the time he remained away from his house.Occasionally, when he came home, he gathered around him the young people of the locality. He would tell them the wonderful experiences of his wandering life.

                                     Often he would ask them:

                            "Have you seen the Eiffel Tower of Paris?"

                             "Have you seen the Leaning Tower of Pisa?"

                              "Have you seen the Taj Mahal  of Agra?"

                               "Have you seen the Qutub Minar of Delhi?"

                   Every time the young people would say 'No' and the traveller would say,"You people always remain at home. You are missing the charm of life."

                   One day the young people asked him,"Have you ever visited the junk shop in the city? Come,  let's pay to visit it."

 

When they visited the junk shop,the rich man was surprisedbto find there many valuable articles missing from his own house. He asked,"How come  my belongings are here?"

The young people retorted."You hardly remain at home.So you are losing the hard-earned wealth of your father."
