The 99 Club !

Once upon a time, there lived a King who, despite
his luxurious lifestyle, was neither happy nor
content. One day, the King came upon a servant who was
singing happily while he worked. This fascinated the
King; why was he, the Supreme Ruler of the Land,
unhappy and gloomy, while a lowly servant had so much
joy. The King asked the servant, "Why are you so
happy?". The man replied, "Your Majesty, I am nothing
but a servant, but my family and I don't need too much
- just a roof over our heads and warm food to fill our
tummies."

The king was not satisfied with that reply. Later in
the day, he sought the advice of his most trusted
advisor. After hearing the King's woes and the
servant's story, the advisor said, "Your Majesty, I
believe that the servant has not been made part of The
99 Club."

"The 99 Club? And what exactly is that?" the King
inquired.

The advisor replied, "Your Majesty, to truly know what
The 99 Club is, place 99 Gold coins in a bag and leave
it at this servant's doorstep."

When the servant saw the bag, he took it into his
house. When he opened the bag, he let out a great
shout of joy... So many gold coins!

He began to count them. After several counts, he was
at last convinced that there were 99 coins. He
wondered, "What could've happened to that last gold
coin? Surely, no one would leave 99 coins!". He looked
everywhere he could, but that final coin was elusive.
Finally, exhausted, he decided that he was going to
have to work harder than ever to earn that gold coin
and complete his collection.

From that day, the servant's life was changed. He was
overworked, horribly grumpy, and castigated his family
for not helping him make that 100th gold coin. He
stopped singing while he worked.

Witnessing this drastic transformation, the King was
puzzled. When he sought his advisor's help, the
advisor said, "Your Majesty, the servant has now
officially joined The 99 Club."

He continued, "The 99 Club is a name given to those
people who have enough to be happy but are never
contented, because they're always yearning and
striving for that extra 1 telling to themselves: "Let
me get that one final thing and then I will be happy
for life."
