One afternoon, a rich man was riding in
the back of his limousine when he noticed two men eating grass by the road
side. He ordered his driver to stop and he got out to investigate. "Why
are you eating grass?" he asked one man.
"We don't have any money for food," the
poor man replied.
"Oh, come along with me then."
"But sir, I have a wife with two children!"
"Bring them along! And you, come with us
too!" he said to the other man.
"But sir, I have a wife with six children!"
the second man answered.
"Bring them as well!"
So, they all climbed into the car, which
was no easy task, even for a vehicle as large as the limousine. One of
the poor fellows expressed his gratitude, "Sir, you are too kind. Thank
you for taking all of us with you."
The rich man replied, "No thank you. The
grass at my place is about three feet tall and I could use your help!"
