of Baba Abdalla, he had grown his wealth steadily and lost it to an Ascetic. An Ascetic is someone who is committed to living a plebian life whilst doing good deeds.
Something had shifted in the Ascetics mind upon observation of Baba's wealth. The Ascetic who was known for good deeds decided to trick Baba. Baba trusting in the goodness of the Ascetic and not believing him to be a greedy character went along with same until he became poor and blind in one eye.
In the articles about Lottery winners who go bankrupt, the story is not too different. There is a case for instance about a woman who won over a million dollars. She divorced her husband soon as she learnt of the win. Her ex-husband later came to the knowledge of the win, filed a countersuit and was adjudged to take ownership of all the winnings. The court's decision was based on the fact that the woman had violated the laws relating to disclosure of assets. The woman ended badly due to greed.
