"We do not go into a House together," they replied.

"Why is that?" she wanted to know.

One of the old men explained: "His name is Wealth, " he said pointing

"The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband
was overjoyed.
"How nice!!," he said. "Since that is the case, let us invite Wealth.
Let him come and fill our home with wealth!"

wife."Go out and invite Love to be our guest."

The woman went out and asked the 3 old men, "Which one of you is Love?
Please come in and be our guest."

up and followed him.Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success:"I

The old men replied together: "If you had invited Wealth or Success,
the other two of us wouldve stayed out, but since you invited Love,
wherever he goes, we go with him. Wherever there is Love, there is
also Wealth and Success!!!!!!"
