An american was taking a vacation in mexico and was siting by the harbour enjoying the scenery and admiring the people. Not long after came a fishing boat with a mexican in it looking rather happy. He had just caught several large fishes that seemed to be able to fetch a good price.

Seeing that, the american went over to the mexican and said, "Nice catch! how long did it took?"

The mexican replied with a great smile, "just a while!"

Puzzled, the american asked, "why don't you stay in the sea longer and then you can get more?"

The mexican humbly replied, "This will be enough to last me for the day."

The american got more curious, "What are you gonna do the rest of the day?"

"Im going to sell the fish, buy some food back and spend time with my family, play with my kids, sing to my wife and drink beer till the sun goes down!"

The american wasn't really satisfied and said, "Im a harvard business graduate, i can help you maximise your income and enrich your life more! You have such talents for fishing, you should stay in the sea longer, catch more and then earn more!"

The mexican asked, "What will i do after that?"

"You can then start your own fishing business after that! Dealing with import and export. You will make a big fortune!!"

"How long will that take?" the mexican asked

"15 to 20 years"

"So what after that?" the mexican asked again

"After your business takes off, you will be a millionare! you will be so rich you can spend time with your family, play with your kids, sing to your wife and drink beer till the sun goes down!" the american said excitedly..

"But isn't that what im doing everyday now? Why should i have to wait for 15 to 20 years to do what im doing everyday?"

Read this from a book at auntie's place.. quite meaningful ahahha~~

P.S Heroes is starting today!!!

It must be the works of my guardian angels :P Now is just the wait till Apr when she come back again for my convo :D Till than~~
