A businessman came walking down the beach and noticed this chap lying relaxed on the beach.
"You aren't going to catch many fish that way," said the businessman to the guy, "you should be working rather than lying on the beach!"
The guy looked up, smiled and replied, "Why do you say that?"
"Well, you can get bigger nets and catch more fish!" the businessman answered.
"What will my reward be?" asked the guy still smiling.
"You will make money and you'll be able to buy a boat and catch lots of fish!"
"What will I gain by that?" asked the guy.
The businessman was beginning to get a little irritated with the chap’s questions. "You can buy a bigger boat, and hire some people to work for you!" he said.
"What will I gain by that?" repeated the guy.
The businessman got angry. "Don't you understand? You can build up a fleet of fishing boats, sail all over the world, and let all your employees catch fish for you!"
Once again the guy asked, "What will be my reward then?"
The businessman was red with rage and shouted at the fisherman, "Don't you understand that you can become so rich that you will never have to work for your living again! You can spend all the rest of your days sitting on this beach, looking at the sunset. You won't have a care in the world!"
The Guy still smiling, looked up and said, "And what do you think I'm doing right now”?"
