He is now the old age his life. How can the youngsters know how he struggled hard his days to establish himself life? Though he started scratch, he retired with something substantial to fall back upon. What he earned must have been sufficient for his son.

But the son had different ideas. He wanted to make money by quicker means. Those were the days when some people made quick money by investing films. So the son persuaded his father to part with his hard-earned money. Reluctantly, the father granted the request because he was the only son.

The son went to the city and started a business. Because it concerned with cinema, everything had to be spruced. The youngster felt big because he interviewed stars and starlets. He had contracts signed by them and invested a fat amount making a movie. Even before the work would commence, half his money had been eaten up. Before the movie would go half its length, the youngster was steeped debts. Distress calls were sent to his father. Then he could not meet his son's demands. So he persuaded him to come back home. After much hesitation, the youngster packed off his goods and, much disillusioned, returned home. When he met his father, the latter simply told him, 'Waste not, want not.'
