The Mexican Fisherman A Mexican fisherman was playing his guitar, on the beach with his wife and two children one afternoon, having finished his morning fishing duty. A New York banker, who was on holiday, came up to speak to the fisherman. “Hey, I saw you come in with your catch earlier today. You know, if you head out for the afternoon, you could probably double that catch. In fact, I have calculated, that if you do that for the next three months, you would have enough money to buy a second boat. With a second boat you could really make some money. Within a year or two you’ll have a fleet and I could list your company on the stock exchange. Before you know it, you’ll be making millions!” The fisherman paused for a minute thinking, and then replied. “But what would I do with millions of dollars?” “Well, you could give up work for a start and spend your days doing exactly what you want to. The things you love to do. You could head out on the ocean in the morning, with your wife and kids, maybe go fishing and hell, you could spend your afternoons on the beach, chilling with the family, playing your guitar, whatever you want” …the fisherman smiled.
