Weekend Story-Intrinsic Worth

intrinsic worth

At a workshop for students, a motivational speaker begins his speech by showing a twenty dollar note. He asks, “Who wants this $20 note?”

On seeing everyone raise their hands, the speaker crushes the note. And he asks again, “Who would still like to have it?”

Once again, everyone in the hall raises their hands. Eventually, the speaker throws the twenty dollar note on the floor and stamps on it with his shoes. He picks it up and asks again if anyone wants it now?

All the hands go up.

The speaker concludes by saying, “no matter what I do to the note, it is still desirable for all of you because there is no decrease in its value, even though I may have done something to it. The intrinsic worth of the note remains the same !!”
