A foolish young man:

An old man died and left his son a lot of money. But the son was a foolish young man, and he quickly spent all the money so that soon he had nothing left. Of course when that happened all the friends left him, when he was quiete poor and alone he went to see an old man who was kind, clever and often helped people when they had troubles. "My money has finished and my friends have gone" said the young man. "What will happen to me now?", "Don't worry young man", answered the old man, "everything will soon be alright again. Wait and you will soon feel much happier." The young man was very glad. "Am I going to get rich again, then?" he asked the old man. "No I didn't mean that", said the old man, "I meant that you would soon get used to being poor and having no friends!"
