Summary
A miser went to the market on a rainy day to buy an umbrella. After visiting many shops and hearing the prices, his eyes widened. He thought to himself, “Should I buy an umbrella for so much money? I’d rather come home wet!” In the end, he left the market without buying an umbrella. He was soaked from head to toe in the heavy rain. When he returned home, his wife asked him in surprise, “Where is the umbrella?” The miser proudly said, “I saved money!” His wife smiled and replied, “You saved money and bought a cold and flu!” Miserliness should have its limits—excessive stinginess ultimately brings its own harm.
