Seven years ago a man came to our town from a distant village. He had no money. A shopkeeper allowed him to work as his helper.
Last evening, while coming from the market, I saw him sitting at the counter of a readymade dresses shop.
Out of curiosity I went to him. He told me how he saved money and managed to have a shop of his own He told me he was planning to have a house of his own.
I saw how a person can rise from abject poverty and become a businessman

He has now brought his family from the village. They now have everything they need. He has shown a person from a humble background can achieve money and respect with firm determination

You are right. He was a very poor man when he came to our town. Now he is not poor.He has achieved what he wanted with his conviction and hard labour.
