Young David asked his rich grandfather, how he had made his money. His grandfather said, "Well, David, it was 1955, and I was down to my last five cents. I went to the local market and invested that five cents in a large apple. I spent the entire day polishing the apple and, at the end of the day, I sold the apple for ten cents. The next morning, I invested the ten cents in two large apples. I spent the entire day polishing them and I sold them at 5pm for twenty cents. I continued this system for a month. Then Grandma’s father died and left us two million dollars."
