The fisherman who tried to fish more

There was a Fisherman whose only income was from catching and selling the fresh fishes he caught.

The more fishes he caught, the more income he would receive.

However, to catch more fishes meant he had to travel a longer distance in the sea. 

And travelling a longer distance also took more time for the Fisherman to return home and as a result, the fish caught lost their freshness and was unable to fetch a good price. 

The Investment Banker & The Fisherman

All of us will at one point of time in our life think of making it big, creating success and be financially free. 

I myself had in an earlier post thought that i am on my way to becoming successful and on my way to being a millionaire as a 16 year old agent renting out properties.
