A certain rabbi was besieged by people from morning to evening, so that he had no time left for reading, contemplation, or meditation. He didn't know what to do until a great idea came to his mind. The rabbi hung a note on the door: “For two questions, one hundred dollars.” Of course, since that day he had much more time. Then the rich man came to him and said:
“Rabbi, here’s a hundred dollars, but don’t you think that’s too much for two questions?”
To which the rabbi replied:
- It seems. What's your second question?
