1、"What is success？"Mr Gruber asked his 6th grade business class．It was his opening conversation for the first class of the term．
"Success is riding in a sweet car，watching an 80-inch TV，and living in a place with at least 12rooms．"One student answered，laughing from all the students．
Mr Gruber smiled，but shook his head．"Tom，that is excess （過量..That is not success．"
"How about being able to provide for your family？"A girl named Sandy in the front suggested as an answer．
"Now we're getting closer，"Mr Gruber smiled，"but try thinking about what you need and what you want．"
"Getting everything you want．"Tom shouted out an answer again，trying for more laughs．Mr Gruber sighed（嘆息．．
"Getting everything you need，but some of what you want？"James，sitting in the back wondered aloud．"Quite right!"Mr Gruber clapped．"Success is getting everything you need and some of what you want．The more you get what you want，the more successful you are．"What does this have to do with business？"Tom asked．It seemed if it wasn't funny，he wasn't happy．
"Well，Tom，think of it this way：the point of business is to make a living to support your family．
"What if I don't have a family？"he continued to be difficult．
"Then you have to provide for yourself，a family of one．"
"He has goldfish to think about!"Peter，Tom's friend，shouted out．
"Then he needs to provide for a family of one with a fishbowl，"Mr Gruber corrected himself．
Tom nodded，satisfied with that answer．
"So in the next nine weeks，we're going to study basic business situations．"
