I try here to translate a small history, which I find very interesting, I hope that the translator will translate it for you in a comprehensible way.
An American investor walks at the edge of water in a small Mexican coastal village. A boat re-enters to the port, containing several tunas. The American compliments the Mexican fisherman on quality on his fish and asks him how long it was necessary for him to capture them. " Not very a long time ", answers the Mexican. " But then, why didn't you remain longer to catch some more? " request the banker.
The Mexican answers that these some fish will be enough to provide for the needs of its family.
The American asks then: " But what do you make the remainder of time? " " I make the fatty morning, I fish a little, I play with my children, I make the nap with my wife. The evening, I to the village will see my friends, we drink wine and play of the guitar. I have a life filled well. "
The American stops it: " I have a MBA (Master of Business Administration) of the university of Harvard and I can help you. You should start by fishing longer. With the released benefit, you could buy a larger boat. With the money which would report to you this boat, you could buy of it a second and so on until you had a fleet of trawlers. Instead of selling your fish with an intermediary, you could negotiate directly with the factory and even open your own factory. You could then leave your small village for Mexico City City, Los Angeles, then perhaps New York, from where you would direct all your businesses "
The Mexican asks then: " How long that would it take? " " 15 to 20 years ", answer the banker. " And afterwards? " " Afterwards, it is there that Ca becomes interesting, answers the American while laughing. When the moment will have come, you will be able to introduce your company out of purse and you will gain million " " million? But afterwards? " " Afterwards, you will be able to take your
retirement, to live in a small coastal village, to make the fatty morning, to play with your children, to fish a little, make the nap with your wives and to pass your evenings to drinking and playing of the guitar with your friends "
