She Said He Was Too Poor To Marry Her. Now 10 Yearslater…whoa! (must Read) by Brownville007: 8:11pm On Aug 25, 2015
Money is one such temptation. Some folks find themselves so intent on the pursuit of money, they quickly lose sight of things that are far more important and rewarding. Like the woman in the fictional story below. This is a story that has been around for years, with a very real lesson on what’s really important in life.
Please read on to see what that lesson is…
Like many inspiring movies and books, this short story may be fictional. However, the impact that this work will have on its readers is very real. Enjoy!
A poor boy was in love with a rich man’s daughter.
One day, the boy proposed to her, and the girl said, “Your monthly salary is equivalent to my daily expenses. How can I be involved with you?”


She went on, “How could you have thought of that? I can never love you, so forget about me and get engaged to someone else of your level.”
But for some reason, the boy could not forget her so easily.
Roughly 10 years later, they stumbled into each other in a shopping mall.
She immediately said, “Hey, you! How are you? Now I’m married, and do you know how much my husband’s salary is? $ 15,700 per month! Can you beat that? And he is also very
smart.”
The man’s eyes became wet with tears on hearing those words from the woman he used to care for.
A few seconds later, her husband came around. But before the lady could say a word, her husband saw the man and
said, “Sir, you’re here! And you’ve met my wife!”
Then he turned to his wife,”This is my boss who runs the $100 million project I’ve been working on!
“And if you want to know something strange about him, he once loved a lady but he couldn’t win her heart. That’s why
he has remained unmarried since.”
He went on, “How lucky would that lady have been if she had married this man right here?”
The lady looked in total shock but couldn’t utter a word.
Marriage should clearly be based on love and not money.
But what this fictional story does help to illustrate is how impatience and rushing to judgement can hurt us in the long
run.
The woman from the story looked only at the short term when the boy proposed, insisting on having riches right now. But in her impatience, she wound up sacrificing far greater riches that would have followed had she waited.
