Deprivation

The monkey once said to the man:

- Don’t you understand how destitute I am? I don't have a house, clothes, or good food like you. No savings, no furnishings, no lands, no decorations - nothing at all. You, on the contrary, have not only all this, but even more!

The man was ashamed and gave everything he had to the monkey, and he himself became a beggar.

When the monkey officially took possession of all his property, the man asked him:

- Well, what are you going to do with all this now?

The monkey replied:

“I’ll start talking to a penniless fool like you!”
