The
Goose that Laid Golden Eggs
A
man once owned a goose that
laid eggs made of gold. Every day, the man
took a golden
egg from the goose's nest, sold it at the market, and used the
money to buy the things that he
needed for the day. Then one day, the man got
tired of waiting patiently for each golden
egg to be laid. He wanted all his
treasure at once, and so he killed the goose, thinking that inside her
he would find solid gold.
Sadly, after cutting open the goose, he found only the
inside of goose.
