*The Shortcut to Riches*

Rohan was a young man with big dreams. He wanted to become very rich, and he wanted it fast. He didn't want to work hard for years like his parents did.

One day, Rohan met a friend who told him about a "sure-win" business idea. Rohan invested all his savings and borrowed money from friends.

The business failed, and Rohan lost all his money. He was sad and felt like he had failed.

A wise old man told Rohan, "Success takes time and hard work. There are no shortcuts." Rohan realized his mistake and started working hard at a regular job.

Slowly, Rohan started saving and investing wisely. He learned from his mistakes and worked patiently. Years later, Rohan became successful and rich, but this time, it was real and lasting.

*Questions:*

1. What did Rohan want?
2. What did he do to become rich fast?
3. What happened to his business?
4. What did the old man tell Rohan?
5. How did Rohan become successful?
