Don't put all your eggs in one basket

Mr Ha is a very rich and famous guy.
He owns a lot of money and properties in Kangar at a very young age.
If you happen to be in Kangar, you can ask anyone and surely everybody know him.

One day, Mr Ha went to see a fortune teller to foresee his future.
The astrologer said to him "The next time you get a business deal, you must give your all as this will make you the richest man in the world !".
Hearing that, Mr Ha felt so ecstatic since he always wanted to be the richest man in the world.
He is not satisfied with what he has and think it is not enough.

A year after he met a very beauiful lady named Zuli, she is a businesswoman from China.
They became good friends and enjoy each others company. After a while, Zuli proposed to Mr Ha that they start a business together selling horses. Upon hearing that, Mr Ha remembered the words of the fortune teller and he thinks thisis the ooportunity for him to be the richest man in the world!

So, he sold all of his propoerties and invested his fortune in the business. His investment doubled from the profit of selling the horses in only 2 months, so he thought he must carry on the business. He said to himself "the fortune teller was right, if I continue for anothe year then may be I can gain a lot more!"

All of the sudden, there is a virus outbreak and killed all of the spreads among they horses they bred. This came as a shock to Mr Ha because he was not prepared and already invested everything into the business. Now he has nothing left, his company was declared bankrupt and his properties were seized by the banks he owed. He became so poor and not even buy his meals.
Mr Ha regretted that he put everything he had in the business. He should have saved some for the future.

As the saying goes, "Don't put all your eggs in one basket".
