SMALL BOY

MONEY ?

This is a story about a boy. It begins when he was about 9 years old, standing at a shop. He didn't know that the biggest revelation of his life was about to unfold that day. He observed a man handing the shopkeeper some rectangular paper and round metal coins, in exchange for basic food and regular items. Filled with curiosity, the boy ran home wondering what it was. At that age, curiosity is at its peak. Eventually, he learned that this was the most important thing to know: "MONEY."

Later, he would borrow money from his mom to buy chocolates and candies for just 1 or 2 DOLLARS. He would always ask his mom before taking money, even if it was just 1, 2, or at most 5 DOLLARS.

As the boy grew up and went to college, he began using more DOLLARS but still informed his parents about his spending. However, he later discovered apps that allowed him to make online payments. Excited, he made his first small online payment to a shopkeeper without asking his parents. The thrill and the conveniences money offered made him lose control, and he found himself spending large amounts in just one month, sometimes even more in a single week. He decided to put a stop to it.

This halt came when he received his first salary, and his father suggested he spend it on things he liked, such as games, shoes, or a premium OTT subscription. This prompted him to reflect on how a boy who once asked for a single penny had changed, spending a lot of money on wasteful, unproductive things with no credibility or success rate.

Eventually, that boy became a man and found the right path. You all know him [or her/change gender in the story].

Is that you inside? If not, then great.
