One day a tourist comes to the only hotel in a debt ridden
town in Kenya. He lays a 100 dollar note on the table & goes to inspect the
rooms.
Hotel owner takes the note & rushes to pay his debt to
the butcher.
Butcher runs to pay the pig farmer.
Pig farmer runs to pay the feed supplier.
Supplier runs to pay the maid, who in these hard times gave
her services on credit.
Maid then runs to pay off her debt to the hotel owner whom
she borrowed from in these hard times.
Hotel owner then lays the 100 dollar note back on the
counter.
The tourist comes down, takes his money & leaves as he
did not like the rooms.
No one earned anything. But that group of people is now
without debt & looks to the future with a lot of optimism.
And that is how the world is doing business today!
