Count My Chikens


The saying goes, don’t count your chickens before they hatch. In Japan there is a similar saying, don’t count your profit before you catch the raccoon dog. I did it once. It was one month ago. I got a telephone call from my mother. She told to me, “I think we can buy you a used car from a grandfather.” I got excite and during a part-time job I was thought about the car. What kind of car will I be? So exciting! But when I got home from a part-time job my mother said to me” An insurance will be so expensive. We can’t buy the car.” I was shocked. But that’s the way it goes. That was my experience of “Don’t count your chickens before they hatch.” No one should do it.
