CHOP ALONE; QUENCH ALONE!

It was the erudite Professor of Engineering ; Professor Olagoke of Shafaudeen fame that corroboratedly subscribed and sufficely expressed the fact of this notion at an occasion in his speech thus that parents should sound it to their wards and children's' ears to know and understand morally that the parents' quest to send their children to school for degree certificate; in order to see them being successful , useful and self-independent is not for their sake alone, but also for the sake of their society and fellow-human being beings at-least both holy books enjoined that " Whosoever one is able to assist in one's little way is exactly one's fellow being" hence I always felt slighted when I see some persons "greedily " appropriating "goodness " of some sort to themselves , that should have been spread, shared and divided among more than one, two but many persons.
  Yet the greedy  type of that myopic and parochial nature would just be exhibiting ignorance and exposing himself to be naive and naughtily stupid, because as a matter of fact he supposed to have known  "nobody knows tomorrow" and that influence in life spreads far around infinitesimally. And where he has a chance may not be where those he cheated would have their own, so cheating others first could induced others to cheat one also, thereafter therefore, it becomes a game of tit for tat, " do me I  do you God no vex" and vicious circle.
  However, God our creator has not made man comfortable only for his own sake alone, but also for the sake of others and those in the neighborhood .
   And if living is of collectivism then :"nobody is an highland to himself": hence, when one is ascending ladder; one should make sure he doesn't spit on those who are down the ladder because one may need them when one is coming down or being forced down by  circumstance, condition or situation beyond one's control.
  Meanwhile, in marketing we are always told not to "cherry-pick", as it is important to know that sometime one's guess, calculation or prediction about some situations may be wrong ; what one sees as not having expected value now or later to oneself may be of much value indeed  to one, so whenever one is doing good to others it is never good to be selective, partial or biased.
  This is pragmatically relevant to the reason why a marketer of products who hawks around prefer to canvass for sales choosing an ordinary mechanic in that dirty-ragged-overall first before considering the corporately dressed dandy man, because the corporately  dressed may not have anything but the mechanic, may be having some money of his or customer's money in his pocket hence, an adage says "gorgeous attire doesn't depicts a man's worth".
  On this note; it is imperative to chip in an advice thus that since fate could change circumstance to favour a poor man at-times then,it is better the rich man cautions himself and be careful in his conduct.
