Li Ka-Shing and a Coin

Li Ka-Shing lost a two-yuan coin when getting his car keys.

It was raining, and the coin rolled under the car. If he drove the car, the coin would roll into a sewer. Li ka-Shing then squatted to pick the coin up.
An Indian waiter on duty saw it and picked it up for him.
Li Ka-Shing accepted the coin gave 100 yuan to him as a reward.
Li explained, “The coin would disappear if I didn’t pick it up and let it roll into the sewer. Money is the fortune that the world creates and it shouldn’t be wasted. I gave 100 yuan to the waiter and he can spend it when necessary. In my opinion, Money can be spent but not wasted.”
A Hong Kong reporter once asked Li, “When was the happiest moment in your life?”
Li said, “The time when we opened a store facing the street. We worked the whole day, closing the store at dusk. Counting the banknotes with my wife in the dim light would be my happiest moment.”
Li’s answer was quite unexpected to the reporter. It’s a wonderful answer. It’s so honest that everyone would smile an understanding smile.
