For me, it&#8217;s my father. I used to think it was so easy because my father always bought everything for me, and I could get whatever I wanted immediately. Now, as an adult, I understand how hard it was for my father. When I was a child, my father was strict and always told me to &#8220;be more responsible.&#8221; I used to wonder why he was so strict with me when I was still a child. But now I understand that it was for my growth. Without my father doing that for me, I don&#8217;t think I would be here today. While it&#8217;s commonly said that children have a stronger bond with their mothers compared to fathers, I felt a stronger bond with my father. When I had problems, I would confide in him like a friend. Thinking back to my childhood, my father hardly spent money on himself. He would wear the same clothes for years. Even when I said, &#8220;You can&#8217;t wear this anymore, Dad, you should buy new clothes,&#8221; he would reply, &#8220;It&#8217;s not necessary. It&#8217;s a waste of money,&#8221; and continue wearing his old clothes without caring about his appearance. When we went out together, I would always dress nicely, and it was embarrassing to be seen with him when he looked like that. But now I understand that it was because of his appearance that I could dress stylishly. I grew up without realizing my father&#8217;s kindness. And now, I am proud of my father, regardless of his appearance. After returning home from a visit, when he comes to see me off, even though he has already given me a lot of money at home, he still hands me some pocket money when I leave. Money is more important to me than any large sum because it is filled with my father&#8217;s love. When I was deepening my studies in Japan, my father took out a loan to pay for all my tuition fees, depleting his savings. I offered to pay half of the tuition and work part-time to cover the rest, but he refused. He said, &#8220;I saved this money for your sake. If it doesn&#8217;t help you, it&#8217;s just paper. Even if I have money, it&#8217;s of no use. Japan is overseas, and you can&#8217;t easily find a part-time job there. We can manage here, but you might face difficulties. So, we&#8217;ll struggle here, and you should have an easier time.&#8221; He never shows it on his face, but my father is the one who is happiest about my success. Fathers are often called the main pillars of a family, but I consider my father the foundation of our family. Without a foundation, a house cannot be built. In India, fathers are said to be overlapped with gods, and now I understand that expression. To describe my father, it would be &#8220;he never says no when the pockets are empty.&#8221; That&#8217;s my father, the wealthiest person I&#8217;ve ever seen in my life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who is the wealthiest person for all of you?
