RE: THE SILENT GAMBLE: MERIT, CHANCE, AND THE HUMAN EXPERIENCE

My parents used to say something like ,the money for food should not be used to build house, some people deprived themselves of food just bcos they want to build house just like their mate, many couldn't sleep a night in that house, they end up taking their corpse there.

Someone else who didn't go that length with them now live in the house lavishly. It is important to learn that even when planning for tomorrow is important we shouldn't also neglect our present.
