Understanding these four stories can add ten years to your life. Lesson 1: A man was about to go into the bathroom to take a shower after his wife finished bathing. At that moment, the doorbell rang. The wife quickly wrapped herself in a bath towel and rushed to the door. When she opened the door, her neighbor Bob was standing there. Before she could speak, Bob said, “If you take off the bath towel, I’ll give you 800 dollars.” ” After thinking for a moment, the woman took off her bath towel and stood naked in front of Bob. A few seconds later, Bob handed her $800 and left. The woman wrapped herself in the bath towel again and went back inside. When she stepped into the bathroom, her husband asked her, “Who is it?” ” “It’s the neighbor Bob. ”She replied. “Oh,” said the husband, “did he mention that he still owes me $800? ” Moral of the story: Sharing important information promptly with shareholders who are in the same boat helps to avoid unnecessary exposure. Lesson 2: A salesman, a clerk, and their manager found an ancient oil lamp while walking to lunch. They rubbed the oil lamp, and a sprite jumped out. The elf said, “I can grant one wish to each of you.” ” “I go first! I go first! ”The clerk said, “I want to go to the Bahamas, drive a speedboat, and be away from the world.” ” Whoosh! She flew away. “It's my turn! It's my turn! ”The salesman said, “I want to go to Hawaii, lie on the beach, have a personal female masseuse, free refills of chilled fruit juice and rum, and the person I love the most in the world.” ” Whoosh! He flew away. “OK, it’s your turn. ”The elf said to the manager. The manager replied, “I want those two idiots to come back to work right after lunch!” ” Moral of the story: Always let your boss speak first. Lesson 3: An eagle is sitting in a tall tree, resting and doing nothing. A little rabbit saw an eagle and asked it, “Can I sit like you and do nothing?” ” The eagle replied, “Sure, why not?” ” So, the rabbit sat on the ground under the eagle to rest. Suddenly, a fox appeared; it pounced on the rabbit and ate it. Moral of the story: To sit around doing nothing, you must be in a very, very high position. Lesson 4: A little bird flies south to spend the winter. It’s really too cold. It froze and fell in a field. While it was lying there, a cow came over and defecated on it. The frozen bird, lying in the pile of dung, began to feel warmth. Cow dung did indeed warm it up. It lay in the warm cow dung, extremely happy, and began to sing. A cat passing by heard the birds singing and came over to see what was going on. Following the sound, it found the little bird under the cow dung and quickly dragged it out to eat. Moral of the story: (1) Not everyone who poops on you is your enemy. (2) Not everyone who pulls you out of the dung pile is your friend. (3) When you’re deep in a pile of dung, it’s best to keep your beak shut. If you see this and understand it, I guarantee you’ll live ten more years! ! ! ! !
