A wealthy banker was riding in his limousine when he noticed two women by the roadside eating grass.
Disturbed, he told his driver to stop and stepped out to investigate.
“Why are you eating grass?” he asked one of the women.
“We don’t have any money for food,” she replied sadly. “This is all we can eat.”
“Well, come with me to my house,” the banker said kindly. “I’ll feed you.”
“But sir,” the woman said, “I have a husband and two children over there under the tree.”
“Bring them along,” the banker replied.
He then turned to the second woman. “You come too.”
“But sir,” she said, “I also have a husband... and six children!”
“That’s fine,” the banker answered. “Bring them all.”
Everyone squeezed into the limousine. It wasn’t easy, even in such a large car.
As they drove away, one of the men said, “Sir, you’re incredibly generous. Thank you for helping us.”
The banker smiled.
“Happy to help,” he said. “You’re going to love my place... the grass is almost a foot tall.”
