Do Not Use Money Wrongly

Long, long time ago, there was a rich man, strolling in the river side for personal pleasure. But, suddenly, flood in the mountain nearby broke out and water pushed him to river. As he could not swim, he cried for help. Luckily, a young man in a boat passed by who rescued him to his boat. The rich man gave the young man one hundred dollars asking him to row faster, and again he gave another one hundred for a more faster speed. Originally the young man saved the rich man not for money, but now he realized that a fast speed could help him making money. Then, he started to row at a great speed in order to earn more money. Finally, the speed is at an abnormal fastness, and the boat capsized. The rich man again fell to the river and drowned. The young man who could swim saved his own life.
From this example, we learn that money should not be wrongly used. Money is important in our life, but is not all mighty. A wrong use of money would not only bring us trouble, but disaster. There are so many examples that a wrong use of money will cost our life. If you are a person of wisdom, you should be careful how to use your money.
