00:00 Once, already being a millionaire, Henry Ford came to England on business.
00:07 At the airport information desk, he asked about any cheap hotel, as long as it was not far away.
00:17 The clerk looked at him, his face was famous, the newspapers often wrote about Ford, and here he is standing here.
00:28 In a raincoat that looks older than himself and asks about a cheap hotel, the clerk asked uncertainly.
00:40 "If I'm not mistaken, are you Mr. Henry Ford?"
00:46 "Yes, Henry Ford," he replied.
00:52 The employee was surprised, "I saw your son at this counter recently."
01:00 He ordered the most expensive room, and was very worried that the hotel was the best.
01:08 "And you ask for a cheap hotel and wear a raincoat that seems to be no younger than you? Are you really saving money?"
01:18 "Henry Ford," after a moment's thought, replied.
01:25 "I don't need to stay in an expensive hotel, because I don't see the point in overpaying for unnecessary excesses.
01:35 Wherever I'm staying, I'm Henry Ford, and I don't see much difference in hotels.
01:44 Because in a cheap hotel you can relax no worse than in the most expensive.
01:52 And this coat yes, you're right, my father also wore it, but it doesn't matter, because I'm still Henry Ford in this coat.
02:03 And my son is still young and inexperienced, so he is afraid of what people will think if he stays in a cheap hotel.
02:13 I don't worry about the opinion of others about me, because I know my true worth.
02:21 And I became a millionaire because I know how to count money and distinguish real values from fake ones."
