There was an Aesop’s story.
A miser who sold all his possessions and, with the money, he bought a great lump of gold. He dug a hole and buried it at the corner of the garden. Every day, he went to the garden, dug up the gold and fondled lovingly.
A gardening worker wondered what was his master doing in the garden once per day. He secretly followed the miser. The worker found and stole the gold.
When the miser found the empty hole, in the next day, he cried out loud.
One of the miser’s neighbors said to the miser that what he had was of no more use than what he did not have.
