• Once, a politician went to his friend's place, who was a minister. The minister took his friend to his house(bungalow, to be more precise). Looking at all the riches, the politician asked his minister friend, "How could you make so much wealth?!". The minister said, "I will tell you tomorrow". The next day, the minister took his politician friend to a place far away in his own imported car & stopped by a bridge to a river & said, "Do you see that bridge?". "Yes", said the politician. "Well", said the minister, "Half the cost of that bridge went to my pocket".

    The story doesn't end here!! After some years, the minister lost his post after losing the elections, went to the place of the same politician, who was now, a minister. Seeing the tremendous wealth acquired, the former minister asked his friend how could he acquire so much. The present minister said, "I will tell you tomorrow". The next day, the minister took his politician friend to a highway in his own posh  imported car & stopped by a bridge to a river & said, "Do you see that bridge?". "No!! what bridge?! I don't see any bridge", said the former  minister. "Well", said the minister, "The entire cost of that bridge went to my pocket".
