“我很抱歉”,人事经理说:“如果你没有邮箱,那就意味着你不能生存,一个不能生存的人当然不能有工作。”

He then sold the tomatoes in a door to door round. In less than two hours, he succeeded to double his capital. He repeated the operation three times, and returned home with sixty dollars.
接着他在附近门挨着门卖西红柿,不到两小时,他成功的将他的资金翻了一倍,他又做了3个小时,到回家时身上已经有60块钱了。
The man realized that he can survive by this way, and started to go everyday earlier, and return late. Thus, his money doubled or tripled 4 everyday.
这个人认识到他可以用这种方式生存,以后他每天起的很早,回家的很晚,因此,他的钱每天都翻两三倍。

When the conversation was concluded the broker asked him his email. The man replied:"I don't have an email.'" The broker answered curiously:"You don't have an email, and yet have succeeded to build an empire. Can you imagine what you could have been if you had an e mail?!!" The man thought for a while and replied:"'Yes, I'd be an office boy at Microsoft!"
