Some lesson. We must learn the hard way. That's why many parents works to guide us. Except as a child. We sometimes likes to use our own mind. Here child? I've have a present for you. Your choice. On which one you like. A whole dollar. Or a hundred pennies. And like a child I went for the green. Only later to find truth. When my mom honestly spoked to me. She bought truth and logic too. When she stated I should have took the pennies. She stated if I lost the dollar. I would be completely broke. But if I lost a penny. I would still be rich. Because people would replace a penny in a minute. While getting another dollar might be harder.
