Dear kids! This is an ancient short story about greed. Read and enjoy.
Greed Leaves You Nothing
There were three friends. They lived in a village. They promised to remain together through thick and thin. They set out on a journey to a town. This town was a famous for trade. They had a successful business and earned a lot of money. After a few years they returned with a bag full of gold coins.
On their way back home they passed through a jungle. They felt hungry and tired. They sent one of them to go to a nearby village and get food for them. As he went away, the other two made a plan to kill him. On the other hand, the third man was also planning to have all the gold himself. He thought of poisoning the food. When he brought the poisoned food for them, both of them rushed to kill him. Soon they put him to death. Then they ate the food. As the food was poisoned, they also died soon after eating it. The result was that all of them died without using the wealth.
