Wealth, success and love （愛、成功和財富）
一位婦女發現三位老人坐在自己的家門口，三位老人說他們的名字是“愛”、“成功”和“財富”，并且讓她回去和丈夫商量邀請哪一位進家，丈夫說邀請“財富”，妻子想邀請“成功”，而他們的女兒卻說：“為什么不邀請愛呢，讓我們的家充滿愛。”
當妻子把“愛”請進家門時，“財富”和“成功”老人也一起跟了進來。
妻子很奇怪的問道：“我是來邀請‘愛’的，你們怎么也一起來了呢？”三個老人笑答道：“無論愛走到哪里，我們都會跟他在一起。”
A woman came out of her house and saw three old men with long white beards sitting in her front yard. She did not recognize them. She said，“I don‘t think I know you，but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat.”
“Is the man of the house home？”，they asked.“No”，she replied，“He‘s out.”“Then we cannot come in”，they replied. In the evening when her husband came home，she told him what had happened.“Go tell them I am home and invite them in！”The woman went out and invited the men in.“We do not go into a house together，”they replied.“Why is that？”she asked.
One of the old men explained：“His name is Wealth，”he said pointing to one of his friends，“and he is Success，and I am Love.”Then he added，“Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you want in your home.”
The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was overjoyed.“How nice！”，he said.“Since that is the case，let us invite Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth！”His wife disagreed.“My dear，why don‘t we invite Success？”Their daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house. She jumped in with her own suggestion：“Wouldn’t it be better to invite Love？Our home will then be filled with love.”“Let us heed our daughter-in-law‘s advice，”said the husband to his wife.“Go out and invite Love to be our guest.”
The woman went out and asked the three old men，“Which one of you is Love？Please come in and be our guest.”
Love got up and started walking toward the house.
The other two also got up and followed him. Surprised，the lady asked Wealth and Success：“I only invited Love，Why are you coming in？”
The old men replied together：“If you had invited Wealth or Success，the other two of us would have stayed out，but since you invited Love，wherever He goes，we go with him. Wherever there is Love，there is also Wealth and Success！”
