one of the sons built himself a castle, where he and his family moved. he was thorough and hardworking.the other son started spending his fortune until one day he was left with nothing at all. he went to his brother asking for some of his treasure. his brother helped him out. he came again, the second time, again his brother helped him out.
when he came the 10th time, the brother refused to help him. "you need to be more responsible and multiply your treasure, not waste it!" the brother said. and then he asked him to leave his castle.
soon after his brother left, he went out to run some errands. upon leaving, he forgot to lock up his castle... until he was out, his brother came and robbed him, stealing all that was left of his father's treasure and everything else he could find.
what do you think of this story? it certainly got me thinking ...

ce gagica misto se vede in dreapta! :D tu esti?
I see a few things here:
1. do as you preach (be responsible yourself and lock that damn gate).
2. multiplying wealth doesn't necessarily mean working for it.
3. overconfidence is wrong.
4. don't feed the troll, even if it's your brother.
5. meek and humble cats scratch hard, and beggars turn into thieves more often than not.
Trex, dreapta mea sau ... dreapta ta? ca la tine se lasa cu vanatai ...
Vasi, everybody steals, if they are successful robbing you, they do it with your contribution ...
