One Dollar

Long years ago, an old man before dying called his two sons to his bed side and asked them to take one box under his bed. When the sons opened the box, they found only one dollar.
The old man then told his sons that this dollar was overpaid by one of his customers and therefore he has kept this dollar waiting the customer to come and to return it. But, ever since, the customer never come.
Later on, the sons found out the story was not true, but the purpose of his idea was to educate them that if the money was not made by labour, they should not take the money.
Why there are so many prisoners in the jail, it is because those persons gain money illegally without paying any labour. So, they pay their price in prison.
Now, many young men wish to earn big money without paying effort. It is of course wrong. There is no free lunch in this world. You have to work to earn what you should get.
