Josť and Carlos are beggars. They beg in different areas of town.
Carlos begs for the same amount of time as Josť, but collects only about $8.00 or $9.00 a day.
Josť brings home a suitcase full of ten-dollar bills every day. He drives a Mercedes, lives in a mortgage-free house, and has a lot of money to spend.
"Hey amigo," Carlos says to Josť, "I work just as long and hard as you do, so how come you bring home a suitcase full of ten dollar bills every day?
Josť says, "Look at your sign, what does it say?"
Carlos reads his sign: "I have no work, a wife and six kids to support."
"What's wrong with that?" Carlos asks him.
"No wonder you only get $8.00 or $9.00 a day!" says Josť.
Carlos says, "All right, what is on your sign?"
Josť shows him:
It says: I only ten dollars to get back to Mexico.
