Can you guess the last line of the
story?
Mr. Kane was a tough but successful businessman. Ten years ago, he started a
small business. One day his son, Peter, came to him and said that he wanted to be
a businessman like his father. Mr. Kane told him that you had to be tough to
succeed in business. He wanted Peter to go to university and become a lawyer, a
teacher, or a doctor. However, his son was stubborn and refused. He only wanted
to be a businessman and urged his father to help him.
"Please, Dad. Teach me how to be a successful businessman."
Reluctantly, Mr. Kane agreed to his son's request.
"Okay, Peter. First of all I want you to walk down to the wall at the bottom of the
garden."
Peter looked at his father and said, "But what has that got to do with business,
dad?"
"Don't ask questions. Trust me and do what I say,'1 he replied. Peter was puzzled
but he walked to the wall. His father continued, "Now climb up the ladder and
stand on top of the wall." Again Peter protested, "But I don't see how this will help
me to be a businessman."
"Don't ask questions. Trust me and do what I say," Mr. Kane said.
Peter climbed up the ladder and stood on top of the wall. It was six metres high
and Peter felt his legs begin to shake.
"Now. Jump down into the garden," his father said.
"But I can't. I'll injure myself," Peter protested.
"Do you want to become a successful businessman or not?
"Yes, of course," Peter cried.
