ESP?

My parents are moving to a new house. They've lived there for more than 25years. Now, they are building a new house and while waiting... I told them... You know why don't you sell the house first before moving? I mean it's good to have cash around...

So i suggested, why not sell it to our neighbor... He's rich and he always contributes to charity.. Which means he's got a good heart and a good bank account... They bought practically the whole vicinity except our house.

My dad said, no rush we can always sell this old house anytime... I guess the old man wasn't as excited to part ways with the house where he lived and raised his kids through good and bad times. Then i said, we'll why don't you sell it while the old neighbor is still alive... During mornings, I hear him coughing.. and boy did he cough.... I can sell it to him if you want I added... I would come up to him and say... Hey Mr. Chua, my family and I are moving cause we can't afford this house anymore... Would you be interested in your kind heart to help us out and buy our home? I'm sure he'll bite. Cause if he passed away and his kids inherits the money.. They are all young and ambitious.. They won't buy the house for a high price since they are not eager to part with their money yet....

Anyways, my dad said no... And a week after the old neighbor died....

Somehow I told you so doesn't quite say it... but Godbless Mr. Chua wherever he is now.
