[[**KNOW YOUR VALUE** (Source Unknown)

A father said to his daughter “You have graduated with honors, here is a car I bought
many years ago. It is pretty old now. But before I give it to you, take it to the
used car lot downtown and tell them I want to sell it and see how much they offer
you for it.” The daughter went to the used car lot, returned to her father and said,“
They offered me $1,000 because the said it looks pretty worn out.”

The father said, now “Take it to the pawn shop.” The daughter went to the pawn shop,
returned to her father and said, ”The pawn shop offered only $100 because it is 
an old car.”

The father asked his daughter to go to a car club and show them the car. The daughter
took the car to the club, returned and excitedly told her father,” Some people in
the club offered $100,000 for it because “it’s an iconic car and sought by many 
collectors.”
