    DO YOU HAVE AN E-MAIL ID?

    A jobless man applied for the position of an 'office boy' at MICROSOFT. The HR Manager
    interviewed him. Then after a series of questions, he said "You are engaged". Then, he asked,
    "give me your email address, and I'll send you the application to fill".

    The man replied "I don't have a computer, neither an email'. 'I'm sorry.... said the HR Manager
    sarcastically and continued saying "if you don't have an email, that means you do not exist. And
    the one who doesn't exist, cannot have a job here !!".

    The man left with no hope at all. He didn't know what to do, with only 10 U.S $ in his pocket.
    He then decided to go to the supermarket and buy a 10 kg tomato crate. He then sold the
    tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital.

    He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with 60 U.S $. The man realized that
    he can survive by this way, and started to go everyday earlier and return late.

    Thus, his money doubled or tripled everyday. Soon, he bought a cart, then a truck, then he had
    his own fleet of delivery vehicles. 5 years later, that man became one of the biggest food
    retailers in the U.S.

    He started to plan his family's future, and decided to have a life insurance. He called an
    insurance broker, and chose a protection plan. When the conversation was concluded, the
    broker asked him his email.

    The man replied, 'I don't have an email'.

    The broker asked him, "you don't have an email, and yet you have succeeded to build an
    empire".

    Do you imagine what you could have been 'if you had an email?!!'.

    The man thought for a while, and replied smiling, "An office boy in Microsoft" !!

    Moral of this story:

    Internet is not the solution to your life. It is only through proper planning and hardwork that
    one tastes Success !!

    Planning + Hardwork SUCCESS
