📢 An investor is walking through a field and sees a man sitting under a tree, doing nothing.
The investor asks: "Why are you doing nothing? You could be growing potatoes!"
The man: "Why?"
The investor: "Well, of course! You would grow them, sell them, buy more land, grow more, and become rich!"
The man: "And then?"
The investor: "Then you could sit under the tree and do nothing!"
The man: "But I’m already sitting…"
Meaning: Sometimes we chase future prosperity so much that we forget to enjoy the present, which may already be that 'final destination' we are striving for. Investments are a tool, not an end in themselves.
