Why am I always greedy for petty gain when I suffer losses?

This is my own personal experience, and I share it for two purposes: one is to repent, and the other is to warn everyone-don't be greedy and cheap, or you will suffer a big loss!

This happened nine years ago. At that time, I had not studied Buddhism and didn't know the cause and effect, so I had many habits, including "greedy mouth" and "love takes advantage of small things"

That year, our unit organized a trip to Sichuan. On the way, the tour guide led us to a big supermarket that specializes in selling dried yak meat.

There are various flavors of dried yak meat for sale in the supermarket. You can try every flavor and put it on several large plates for everyone to taste for free.

Several colleagues went to taste it, and I saw it, so I followed. Who knows, I tasted it and found it really delicious, and I felt a little reluctant to stop.

Because it's a free trial, I can't help eating a lot, and I almost didn't eat everything that others let out.

I didn't know yak meat was very expensive until I saw the price, which was per catty 160 yuan. It is estimated that we ate dozens of dollars.

After our group tasted it, few people bought it. They all wiped their mouths and left.

At that time, I thought: if everyone is like us, then the business will lose a lot. But later, I realized that the real loser was myself.

When I walked out of the shop, I still had a piece of dried meat in my mouth.

The tour guide has stood by the car, waving a small red flag and began to urge: "speed, speed, get on the bus!" " " )

I'm afraid my colleagues in the car will laugh, and I want to eat the dried meat in my mouth before getting on the bus. So, I took a hard bite, but the dried yak meat was too hard, and half my teeth were too hard.

I was scared, but I was afraid to tell anyone, so I got on the bus with half a tooth and threw it out of the window quietly halfway, and I was too embarrassed to tell anyone.

It cost more than 1000 yuan to have my teeth filled when I came back from my trip.

When I paid the bill, my heart ached a little: I ran back and forth six times to fill my teeth, which was a waste of time and money.

Think about it. If the money for filling teeth is used to buy dried yak meat, you can buy a big bag. Not worth the candle!
