Long long ago, there was a man named Surendra. He hardly spent his money. So everybody called him a miser. He stored his gold in a hole on his land. Every day he went there and dug it up and took great pleasure in looking at it.
One day, a thief saw this. He went after the miser. In the night he dug up the gold and took it away. The next day, the miser came to take great pleasure in his money. But he found nothing in the hole. He cried loudly. All the neighbours came around him. He told his neighbours what happened. A neighbor said, “You should hide a rock in the hole and look at it every day. You did not once use the money when you had it. I think it was no better than a rock.”
