There are two economic graduate students A and B. The two of them walking on | |
a road when they discover a pile of dog shit. A says to B: Eat it and I’ll | |
give you 50 million. Hearing this, B thinks, “Wow, so easy to make 50 million, | |
even though it is a little stinky, at worst just take the money to go have my | |
stomach pumped,” and so he took the shit and ate it. | |
The two of them continue walking, but both feel a bit unhappy and uneven. A lost 50 | |
million and got nothing in return. B, though it can be said that he earned 50 million, | |
doesn’t feel very good after eating the shit. | |
At this moment, they discover another pile of shit, and B finally finds something that | |
will put him at ease, saying to A: “Eat it, and I’ll also give you 50 million. A thinks, | |
“If I can earn back the 50 million I lost, so what if I eat a pile of shit, didn’t B | |
eat it too?” So, he ate the shit too. According to reason, the two people should feel | |
even now, but the more they pondered, the more they felt not right, neither of them | |
having gained anything, yet each of them having eaten a pile of shit. So, they went to | |
find a professor, and after listening to their story, the professor said, comforting | |
them: “Students, you guys should be happy, the two of your eating two piles of shit | |
has contributed 100 million to our country’s GDP!” |
