Actually you are very wealthy

A young man always complained that he was unfortunate, short of money to spend etc. Everyday he looked sad, without any smile on his face.



One day he met an old man on the street.
The old man asked him, " Young man, why are you looking so sad?"

"I don't understand why I'm so poor, always short of money."
"Poor? You're rich." the old man said sincerely.
"What do you mean?"
The old man asked,"If I give you RM1,000 and you let me cut off a finger, will you agree ?"
"No!" replied the young man.
"If I cut off one of your hands and give you RM10,000, will you agree ?"
"No!"
"If I make both your eyes blind and give you RM100,000, will you agree?"
"No!"
"If I let you become a man of 80 years old now and give you RM1,000,000, will you agree?"
"No!"
"If I let you die now and give you RM10,000,000, will you agree?"
"No way!" cried the young man.
"You see, you already own a fortune of RM10,000,000, why do you still complain that you're poor?", the old man smiled and asked.

The young man was speechless. Suddenly he realised what the old man was trying to tell him.
