you　boys　will　find　out　as　you　work　and　study　with　me。　That　is　why　I　took　away　all　forms　of　pay。〃

〃Any　hints？〃　Mike　asked。　〃We're　kind　of　tired　of　working　hard；　especially　for　nothing。〃

〃Well；　the　first　step　is　telling　the　truth；〃　said　rich　dad。

〃We　haven't　been　lying。〃　I　said。

〃I　did　not　say　you　were　lying。　I　said　to　tell　the　truth；〃　rich　dad　came
