## Resource

A stingy friend was always thinking about saving money. One night, he was sitting in a dark room, but he did not light a single lamp. Another friend of his came and asked him in surprise, “Why are you sitting in the dark like this?” The stingy friend smiled and said, “I am saving on the electricity bill.” Then the friend jokingly asked, “What if a thief comes in the dark?” The stingy friend confidently replied, “If the thief comes, I will catch him!” The friend smiled and said, “You have to see the thief before you catch him!” Everyone laughed at this. This funny incident teaches that excessive stinginess sometimes makes people laugh.
