One day, in a crowded bus station there is a
man who smokes. As a person who cares of environment, Budi doesn’t like people
who smoking and wants to warn that man. But Budi doesn’t want that man angry
because his statement, so Budi warn him softly. Budi came to the man and said,
“sir, how long you’ve been smoking?”. He answered, “I’ve been smoking for 20
years”.
“Tell me how much
the price for a smoke” the man replied, “it’s about Rp. 2000, why are you
asking?” then Budi replied again, “sir, don’t you ever think. If everyday you
spent only a smoke, you may get Rp. 14.000 for a week if you save the money. If
a month you may get Rp. 420.000 and for a year you may get Rp. 5.040.000. Now
imagine if you save the money for 20 years as long you were smoking. You may
get more than a hundred million rupiah and you can buy a car, house or anything
with that money”.
Calmly the man
said, “now, I’m asking you. How old are you?” Budi answered, “i’m 25 years
old”. Then the man asked again, “Are you smoking?” Budi replied, “of course,
no!”. Then the man asked Budi, “so, do you have a car?”. Budi answered “no, i
don’t have”.
