A woman saw three old men sitting in front of her house.She said,“I don't think I know you,but you must be hungry.Please come in and have something to eat.”

“We don't go into a house together.” they answered.

“Why is that?” she asked.

One of the old men explained,“His name is Wealth(财富).” he said pointing to one of his friends,and to another one,“He is Success,and I'm Love.Now,go home and ask your family which one you want.”

The woman went in and told her family what happened.“How nice!” her husband said,“Let's invite Wealth.Let him come and be our guest.”

His wife disagreed,“My dear,why not invite Success?” Their daughter then said,“Wouldn't it be better to invite Love?Our home would be filled with love.”

They agreed with their daughter.The woman went out and asked Love to come in,but the other two men also got up and followed Love.The woman asked in surprise,“We only invite Love.Why are you coming in?”
