Tomato Story


We'll Know What Is Better When It Comes To Earning Money

A Jobless man applied for the position of 'office boy' at Microsoft. The HR manager interviewed him then watched him cleaning the floor as a test.

' You are employed ' he said. Give me your e-mail address and I ' ll send you the application to fill in, as well as date when you may start.

The man replied ' But I don ' t have a computer, neither an email ' .

' I ' m sorry ' , said the HR manager. If you don ' t have an email, that means you do not exist.

And who doesn ' t exist, cannot have the job. '

The man left with no hope at all. He didn ' t know what to do, with only $10 in his pocket. He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10Kg tomato crate. He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round.. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with $60.

The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled everyday.

Shortly, he bought a cart, then a truck, and then he had his own fleet of delivery vehicles.
5 years later, the man is one of the biggest food retailers in the US He started to plan his family ' s future, and decided to have a life insurance.

He called an insurance broker, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his email. The man replied, ' I don ' t have an email. '

The broker answered curiously, ' You don ' t have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e mail?!! '

The man thought for a while and replied, ' Yes, I ' d be an office boy at Microsoft! ' Moral of the story :

Moral 1 Internet is not the solution to your life.

Moral 2 If you don ' t have Internet, and work hard, you can be a millionaire.

Moral 3 If you received this message by email, you are closer to being an office boy/girl,than a millionaire...........

P.S - Do not forward this email back to me, I am closing my email account & going to sell tomatoes!!!
