Once a Tanzanian minister was on a tour to France and his French counterpart invited him for a dinner. When the Tanzanian minister arrived at the latter's residence, he was astonished to see that the latter was living in a very grand and luxurious bungalow and they had dinner in silver spoons and plates and all his bungalow were filled of precious antiques and other articles. He can not hold himself back and asked the French minister the reason for him living in such a grand style. On asking the French minister took him to a window.
French Minister : Do you see the river over there ?
Tanzanin Minister : Yes.
French Minister : Do you see the bridge over it ?
Tanzanian Minister : Yes.
French Minister : 10%.
After 5 years the same French minister got a chance to visit Tanzania and now it was the turn of our same Tanzanian minister to invite him for a dinner. When the French minister arrived at the Tanzanian minister's residence, he was stunned to see that the latter was living in a palace like house and they had dinner in golden spoons and plates and he had hundreds of servants and all his bungalow were filled of jewelries and costliest furniture, antiques and other articles. Now it was his turn to ask, "Dear friend how could you afford to live such a grand style?"
The Tanzanian minister took him to a window.
Tanzanian Minister : Do you see the river over there ?
French Minister : Yes.
Tanzanian Minister : Do you see the bridge over it ?
French Minister : No.
Tanzanian Minister : 100 %.
