A simple fisherman was once fishing, sitting on a nice comfortable chair on the beach relaxing, holding a long fishing rod and doing what he loves to do.  Suddenly, a big shot millionaire comes by and says “you are fishing with just a fishing rod?”  To which the fisherman responded “Yes, I love just fishing with a fishing rod, why?”  The millionaire says “I have an idea. How about I become your partner and I will buy you a fishing net?  The fishing net will allow you to catch much more fish.”  The fisherman responded “I don’t need so much.  What would I do with so much fish?”  The millionaire responds, “Well if you have all this fish, you can open up a fish store.”  The fisherman says “And then what?”  He says, “Then you can use the money you made and open a second fish store.”  The fisherman says “A second fish store?  Then what am I going to do?”  The Millionaire says, “Then you will have so much money, you can buy a big fancy fishing boat.  Then you will be able to catch all the big fancy fish that you can’t catch on the shore.  You will be able to offer such a wide selection.”  The fisherman responds, “Alright, but then what?”  The millionaire says, “Well then you can open up a fish supermarket.”   The fisherman says “Really?  A supermarket?”  The millionaire says, “Sure, it will be great.  Then you will have so much money you can start exporting fish all over the world.  You will have so much money, it will be fantastic.”  The fisherman says, “Alright, so once I own the chain of stores, the big fishing boat, the supermarket and the factory…what will I do next?  The millionaire responds “Ahhh, then you will have time to do whatever you want.  You will be able to relax here on a nice comfortable chair on the beach with your fishing rod and do what you love to do.”  Hmmmmm….. ~  paraphrased from R’ Lazer Brody
