O
nce upon a time there was a rich man who spent his money unwisely. He soon ran out of all his money and became poor. He had to live on the street for a while. Until one day a woman wearing a light blue dress came upto him and said, "You have spent your money unwisely but you are forgiven." She handed him a banjo and said "play this and you will become rich again but you have to promise you will always give to the poor." The man replied Okay but i don't know how to play a banjo. The Woman answered stop complaining and disapeared in the crowd. The man said "Here goes nothing." He held the banjo and started to play but his music was so terrible that dogs start to howl. The same Woman in the blue dress appeared and told him you have
said to yourself that you coudn't play the banjo so the music came out bad. This time just play the old Banjo. the man then Held the banjo again and played it, this time his music was sweeter than a songbirds. People stopped and listened and gave him coins for his sweet music. The man then became rich again. This time he was wise with the way he used his money and lived happily ever after. Oh yeah and he also remembered to always give to the poor.
