One afternoon
a wealthy lawyer was sitting in the back of his limousine being driven to work. When he saw two men eating
grass by the side of the road, he
ordered his driver to stop. And then he
got out to investigate.
"Why are you eating grass?" he asked the men.
"sir, we don't have any money for food." one of the men replied.
"
Come along with me." instructed the lawyer.
The first man said, "But Sir, I have a wife and two children. They are also hungry."
"Bring them along too." replied the lawyer.
The second man said, "Sir, I have a wife and six children. Can they come as well, please?"
"No problem, bring them as well." answered the lawyer as he
climbed back into his limo.
Finally, they were all in the limo - the lawyer, the two men, their two wives and eight children.
One of the men said, "Sir, you are
too kind. Thank you for taking all of us with you."
The lawyer replied, "No problem,
there will be plenty to eat at my home. The grass is
almost half a meter tall."
