• 2. ACRES OF DIAMONDS

Long ago, an old farmer heard that

• ther farmers were making millions

by discovering diamond on their land…….

He sold his barren land and spent the rest of his life wandering the African continent searching, unsuccessfully for the gleaming gems that brought such high prices on the markets of the world. Finally, worn out and in a fit of despondency, he threw himself into a river and drowned………..

Years later, the farmer who had bought the old man’s land saw a shimmering stone in the river. The land was found to have the largest deposits of diamonds ever recorded…. Had the old man just looked for the diamonds in his land, he would have made the millions himself…….
