Love of Possession

2018年03月17日 | 英単語

Reader's Digest 2月号の記事 'Laughter the Best Medicine' からの引用です。
AS THE HEDGE FUND manager gets out of his brand-new Porshe, a truck goes racing by, taking off the door. "My Porshe! My beautiful silver Porshe is ruined!" he screams.
A police officer on the scene shakes his head in disgust. "I can't believe you," he says. "You're so focused on your possessions that you didn't even realize your left arm was torn off when the truck hit you."
The hedge fund manager looks down in absolute horror. "Oh no!" he screams. "My Rolex!"
