"I am richer than you are!" A poor man told a very rich individual. "That cannot be," the
rich one continued. "Oh, but it is true," the poor man stated, "I have as much money as I
want, and you do not."
Some of you reading this are rich because you are satisfied with what you have. In his
famous speech, "Acres of Diamonds," Russell H. Conwell tells of an ancient Persian, Ali
Hafed. He owned a very large farm, where he had fruit trees, grain fields, and gardens.
He had saved much money and was content because he was a wealthy man and wealthy
because he was content.
