When he was ten years old, his mother arranged for him yungoy ship which sail in the Dutch possession in the East - India. So he Read more...prostranstvoval twenty years, who were for him a harsh test, which can only withstand the strong-willed and courageous man. Idealism and the romantic dreams of a boy faced with the harsh truth of life, where there was no place for weak, exhausted. «He has a lot of terrible trials, Honore de Balzac wrote about his hero .- experienced total: romantic failure, famine, trampled love, temptation a lot of money, poverty, ill health and wealth».

Why Gobseku so much money? To good and prosperous live? Of course not. After all of the experience he can not spend money recklessly, as believed, it is better to push himself, than to allow others to do so with themselves. Gold, in his opinion - one that could provide an opportunity to survive, not to be crushed by a dirty boot.
