Once the priest told a rich man, who has been in his whole life a usurer, he will get in the hell because of this life. He sent his three sons to learn a craft. After the apprenticeship, when the father was at death's door the sons were proud of being very successful in their crafts. The rich man asked the priest to come to him and redeem him from the hell and he left his wealth to the poor since his sons can survive anywhere. This is how the three boys got nothing for their pains.

No blonde son. So no one is successful among them
Jammy joe what country are you from?
Every story has at least on blonde it in. And all of those blondes got happy endings. That is why he commented this. Not literal way.
@Jammy joe so what do u think if normal people? 😐
@Jammy joe idk if i should be content with that or offended
@Jammy joe no one should be treated as a special snowflake that's superior to others based on their rare hair colour .. blonde can be unattractive or beautiful just like any other people besides personality is what matter and that what we should like people for :)..ps: sorry for my English
I remember a pretty similair German tale, but the old man wasn't too rich. He sent all his sons to work so they had a secure future and planned to give all inheritance to the most successful one. The sons had same professions as here, except they actually possessed the skills they boasted and showed them off to their father. In the end, their father decided they all were equally worthy and split his money in three, and they all lived happily ever after.
Which 1 was that.
Yeah it's Grimm's fairy tales most of the stories in this channel are from that book but they change it a little so it's not exactly identical
@@hamiraafarew726I doubt they themself change it
The second and 3rd son should have taken the hint once the 1st son didn't get anything.
Neither of the 3 brothers succeeded but of course no typical Blonde can be found in this story so they fail 😂😂😂😂😂

No love for their dad 😭
Angry Martin Luther noises

The sad irony is that no one can buy their way out of Hell and that the old man got played by a false teacher of a false church and who was known to not only lie about the Word of God but pocket and grow rich from asking for money, yet the Bible itself states that no true Christian should ask for money to share or teach God's word. (Most do not know that) The old rich man would have been better off directly giving his money TO those who were actually poor and whom he had wronged, but even that alone still would not have bought him out of Hell. So the tragedy of this story is that they all get played and none ever actually do the Biblical truly Christian behavior.
The takeaway for me from all this is this: swords make great umbrellas.
😆😅
“This is the last one tonight, I said. I’m going to go back to working on my essay, I said.”
The struggle is real 😖
That, children, is what you get when you boast too greatly of your talents and hardly work at all. It is wonderful though that the money ended up going to the poor in the end.
AnaxErik4ever yeah, I was legit worried he was going to buy indulgences, which there’s a reason the Catholics don’t do those anymore XD
By the face of the priest I bet those money didn't go to the poor 😂😂😂
They did work hard? And I don't see what's wrong with being proud in yourself..
YA PLAYA HATERS YOU SHOULD LOVE YOURSELF BRR
it wasn’t that they were proud that was the problem it was that they over exaggerated the achievements they made. I’m sure they were good at there jobs but if you listen to the details it sounds impossible. Possibly insinuating that they didn’t do the things there dad told them to do. Also if you look at there reactions after it hinted they needed the money and weren’t successful.
It’s possible they weren’t lying. even then though, there were other people so needed it more. If the sons were so well off then the dad shouldn’t have to feel pressured to give his sons anything else. Especially since he was dying, he cared a lot about them and wanted to help the but they didn’t need the help he was going to offer so he gave it to someone he assumed needed it more.
It’s also worth noting many tales like this one reward the kids for there success. So maybe they thought the most impressive one would get the most money. In other words they tried to trick they’re dad into give them his cash. Its a moral on bragging to much. You can be proud but if your to proud you can miss opportunity’s.
And if you do the exact opposite you make no money cause you need money to make money.
2:34 it seems that the rich man's house is also powered by Calcifer from Howl's Moving Castle.
Oh my gosh it is him.... now the question is would it be similar to the book's version or the movie's?
I thought the same exact thing when I saw it :o is there really a fire demon so similar to Calcifer in Hungarian folk tales?
MAY ALL YOUR BACON BURN
@@anya482 There are numerous little devils and semons with a bunch of various silly and vitty names, that could qualify.
An old man who ‘‘...had never been a young man?‘‘ How does that work?
he has an old soul.
I think that meant so say he was never young at any point of the story.
It's a bad translation. In hungarian "he wasn't young before that too". They can't translate this.
I thought that kinda meant he never had a childhood.
@@laobok kind of meant he had to work all his life
The son that's the barber reminds me of Nigel Thornberry.
It reminds me of weird al yankovic
Probably an ansester of him
he got smashed
I like how with the oldest the narrator says "He decided to make him into a soldier, because he was very smart" and then with the last two sons...it's just "He made him into a black smith" *awkward pause* "And the youngest, into a barber" *another pause*.
Like...couldn't we have heard at least one positive trait each, to reason why the younger two were placed into the career boxes they were? It'd be good to show kids that they can be proud of any of those career paths.
Also, I thought the narrator was going to say that tge eldest son was made a soldier because he was very "brave". I guess soldiers do need to be bright too, but that's not the first occupation that would come to my mind for a smart person
@@elsie8757 the original actually says that the son was nyalka, which is fancy for handsome. So basically, the others were assigned something more or less random, based on whatever unspeakably more hidden qualities they were harnessing.
Well, it's true that if you DID work hard at your trade and got good at it, you wouldn't need your father's money. You'd make good money on your own.
They did seem to be comfortable at least.
I guess the moral of this story, is don’t brag too much otherwise you won’t get nothing in return, well that’s what I came up with, what about everybody?!
Yeah that's what I got. Besides they were just saying that they were good at their job nothing wrong with that 😅 seemed unnecessary to not give them anything
@@hydrofake9574 They were lying and were merely trying to impress their father to earn their inheritance, and since the primary thought they had from hearing of his health was "We're going to get his money," they were punished. It said prior to return home they simply partied..
I took the lesson as, "too much of a good thing can be bad for you", which is similar to what you said. But also "money is the source of all problems".
I mean money was what led the old man to losing something, money led to his sons lying and money was used as a desperate attempt to keep himself away from hell
The lesson is to join the priesthood so you can threaten everyone into giving you nontaxable donations.
@@ShadowPersona360 but in the end money went into the right hands so when you know how to use it it's good
“Although he was never a young man” wait what the Benjamin Button is going on?
Nah. Its bad translation. It should say, though he wasnt young before (in the story). Its a turn of phrase that doesnt really work in english.
He wasn't young to begin with, is the correct way to put it. I checked the original.
this is why you don't lie you tell the truth. If the sons had told the truth, they might have not gotten anything anyways because they squandered all the money they had before and weren't diligent in their jobs.
so all the bankers in the world goes to hell? well thats intresting.
SailorIda3 At the time it was considered a sin.
@@aileenbordelon7884 oh, I never knew that, thanks for telling me :D
SailorIda3 You’re welcome :)
Yeah, usury is a sin.
Money lending with compound interest has pretty much always been considered a sin worthy of hell. In Dante's inferno the Userers occupy the same ring of hell as sodomites. I think the reason is because the interest makes the loans so difficult to pay back, and completely obliterates people's well-being (I mean just look at the state of those with student loans)...You basically have to become a slave to pay back those loans, because even if you're working for wages, all the wages go to the loan, so you're a slave. It's intensely brutal when you think about it.
5:30 Martin Luther wants to know your location
This is what I came down into the comments looking for lol.
This is an unappreciated gem
This shows, pride doesn’t pay
I'd love a moral at the end of each of these stories.
Use your head, it’s kinda obvious xd
The sons spoke big and exaggerated their own abilities which ended up getting them in trouble.
Being humble is the best way to a happy life.
plot twist: the church didn't give it to the poor; they used it for themselves
I would not be surprised
This isn't a plot twist, this is a fact!
no actually they bought Lil kids for merry making #dark fact 😂
Damn Priest, bet he never gave the money back to the poor.
Lesson: Don't fool an old man about his money and work not lie covering up your slacking failure.
I THOUGHT THE LASTEST SON WAS HONEST AND SAY THAT HE WAS PARTYING ALL THESE AWAY.
all of them including rich daddy were selfish
I’m hooked on these.
Moral OF the story
Be Honest OF your words
Moral:
1) don't be the jerk who preys on the poor.
2) do good and help others before you land on your sick bed
3) don't lie about how you're doing in life, you may lose your blessing. Although, in this case, they may have lost it regardless.
Those @#%#$! They came home, because their father was dying. But when they didn't get an inheritance, they couldn't get away from him fast enough. They left their own father to die alone.😤😡😵👊
They're the one who are going to burn in the fires of hell for all eternity.
the youngest looks like nigel thornberry
This guy got ripped off by the preacher. Like most preachers do nowadays, it's an ancient tatic!
YAS FINNALY SOME DAMN COMMOM SENSE
I mean,I believe in God...but not in the church ,cuz since beginning it was more a profit source than spiritual source
So, you're saying all preachers are like that? Typical words from today's political climate. It depends on the particular belief.
Some preachers are like that but, not all. I'm sorry that you think that.
I mean, was he any better though?
@@1fishmob it's in accordance with catholic teachings. It's no coincidence.
"I shaved a rabbit clean while it was running yesterday."
*FOR WHAT REASON, WHO BENEFITS FROM THIS*
It would make animal activists happy to know that he didn't have to kill the rabbit for it's fur. Why he did it while running is a whole nother question though.
The actual Hungarian narrator specifies that it was due to being challenged to do so, by basically accepting a bet.
I'm so glad you can't buy your way into heaven because only the rich would be there.
I'm not surprised the gentlemen earned anything. They should have done better than lying for their father.
NessLover94 Well you are so smart..🤗🤗🤗😚
The most ridiculous story among the three sons comes from the soldier. Who would believe that he can use his sword to slash the rain to keep himself dry?
Oh, yeah, his father.
any more so that you can shoe a horse while it is in motion. Have you stood next to a horse?
@@pangaeus Nope...but I was born in the year of the horse.
anime fans
Umbrellas are overrated. Imagine if mary poppins came flyin by spinning a silver sword
Honesty pays off (literally)
Kinda hard to tell what the object lesson is here ....
Jonathan Darnel bragging won't give you anything in return. They bragged to their father yet they lied about what they have been actually doing in their lives.
Work hard but don't brag.
Liars and braggers are never rewarded is what I got from it.
when you flex too hard
I love this story
Pause at 4:34 - the moral of the story is one can shoe horses with front facing eyes in motion.
0:45
Me: gee I wonder who did that?
(Get to 0:51)
Also me: WAY TO GO STEVE! I see denis is in on your little sceam
How did he not notice that?
No, it is that you get more inheritance if you exhibit need of it. If you convince your benefactor you are sufficient, they are motivated to place the money where the need is evident. I see that in my family.
A good life lesson!!!!!!!!
BAHAHA OMG i loved this story out of all the others !
So the moral of the story is, God can be bribed?
I don’t see how being a money lender is a one way ticket to hell but sure...
The sin of usury is based on these premises:
1. The money lender doesn't earn his profits from his own sweat (as opposed to farmers, artisans, laborers, soldiers). People in the ancient world thought wealth was static.
2. Rates of interest were assumed to be extortionate. Say, 25%. Back then, lending was a small business and the clientelle were similarly small in number. There was no economy of scale. If you became rich through money lending, odds are you charged extortionate rates.
In the Judeo-Christian West, this problem has been solved by the following:
1. People have realized that not all money-lending is parasitical, on the contrary it is necessary to ease the flow of capital in investments and innovation and thus create more wealth.
2. Laws that prohibit extortionate rates have made banking more respectable. The sin of usury that exists today is associated instead with sleazy loan sharks. Once the Church saw the necessity of funding to create wealth, they focused on the percent of rates instead on the concept of interest in itself.
In the Islamic world, it's more divided. Some are ok with conventional banking, especially in the more secularized countries like Indonesia or Turkey. Others insist that interest itself is sinful, and thus developed Islamic banking where instead charging interest, the bank becomes a stakeholder in the business of its client and gets a dividend on profit.
I loved it
Aww, the charitable guy!
Honestly I'm having a hard time understanding how being a money lender is such an evil practice.
Because they basically robbed people and left them without anything if they couldn't repay.
@Sardonicus To my understanding, Jesus got mad in that case because people, not just money lenders, were selling and buying in the temple of God. He overturned the tables of the money changers AND the seats of them that sold doves. "My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves."
Hungarian culture rules!!! 🇧🇬
That's the Bulgarian flag
True moral of the story: get rich and pay your way out of hell 🤔
Seriously though, am I the only one that wants to know what the rich man did that he needs to buy his way out of hell??
and so now i can use all of my money to pay my way out of hell’s fiery furnace. LMFAO what paved his pathway to hell also was the ticket out
It's phrased like he bribed God, but I prefer to look at it more like he repented and made up for his misdeeds by giving his money to the needy.
It's good that the old man atoned for his sins before it was too late.
It was only a pathetic attempt to buy his way into heaven on his death bed where money wasn't good for him anymore. Too late.
It is a very big mistake to think you can "buy your way out of hell"!
God is not dumb, do people really think a being who is older than anything and more powerful than anyone, can be tricked like that? :D
If someone is only doing good to get into heaven, and only avoid doing bad to escape hell, that person is not a good one at all!
Honestly the "sin" he committed is very old and outdated.
Essentially all bankers in modern times would be in Hell.
But no Christian nowadays ever talk about that anymore.
Should have made them priests and made them forgive him
Its a win win

Zorander Istvan It was an actual practice to pay priests to buy ones way out of hell in the distant past. It was one of the reasons why Martin Luther’s Protestant movement became so popular.
Its not buying your way out of hell. Charity helps one merit the herafter. Indeed, it can stave off death itself.
I think the moral is don't expect shit when you're already successful.
There are 3 kinds of work ethic being described here too avoid. 1. Don't waste energy doing work only for yourself 2. Don't waste your energy doing work for free. 3. Don't waste your energy doing work that helps no one. Above all else, don't be like the father who did work but through wicked means.
I hope the priest was loyal and gave it to the poor. I did not trust that smile

RUclips recommendations: this
Hahahahaha
Too clever
Luigi became a soldier
I dont think any amount of money should get you out of hell
It doesn't seem that these are very old as there are firearms, New World Plants, & New World Animals.
And so what could have been the foundation of his grandchildren's futures is taken away because a bunch of peasants didn't understand basic banking/lending concepts.
Usury is a stupid sin.
cool
ruclips.net/video/4oG6ykphQKA/видео.html I checked the original. A blatant error around 2:25.Accurate translation would be: the rich man grew old, "he wasn't that young to begin with" .
They never love their father?
3:46; “wHo NeEds AN UmbrEllA?!”
Don't toot your own horn or you will be cut out of the will...
🙏
Wait minute so the children lied about how they were doing and then never got the money. I would have lied and got the money
Am I the only one who thought the youngest son might be honest and get the money from his father? I mean he’s not blonde or whatever but I just thought he would still be a good person out of his brother’s.
maybe he pretended to not care about his father and because the shaving the rabbit's furs was true and he was possibly thinking that money doesn't mean to him
Moral of the story........... You can pay yourself out of hell?
no cause like he got money from "bad work" in the beginning but at the end he helped the poor and gave his fortune to them (i guess to make up for what he did)
i guess so yeah.
5:31 and i oop-
r/thathappened
I forgot most bankers were jewish cause christians had some sort of grudge against them
exactly.
Not exactly. Most bankers were Jewish because it was considered a sin for Christians to give interests or something like that so Christians weren’t allowed to be bankers because they saw it as a sin.
That sentence made no sense but I think I know what you meant. It's not a "grudge against them", it's basic rules of capitalism: the Christian knew he wouldn't make enough profit to lend again whereas the Jewish banker would collect higher interest rates which meant there would be more funds for more lending, so the Christian business would perish. Christians have a cap on interest rates whereas Jewish faith doesn't impose a cap on interest. I think if you went over the allowed percentage, in Christianity it is called "usery" which means you take advantage of those who have less than you. So a Christian knows ahead of time not to enter into banking purely out of logic. If anything, the grudge comes from being on the victim end of a shark loan.
It was the only profession open to most Jews...they weren't allowed into tradesmen guilds
None can buy their way into Heaven. It's by faith alone in Christ's once-for-all sacrifice alone which saves. Still a great series!
One can still have faith and have a blackened soul. He gave the money not to buy his way into heaven, but to make up for his misdeeds. It was in this way he was asking God for forgiveness by getting rid of the one thing that cursed him to hell, his greed.
@@CartoonLab Nicely written! I couldn't have put it better myself! 👍
It's likely a reference to indulgences, a practice carried out by Catholic priests around the renaissance era in which a person could literally buy a ticket to heaven from the church (supposedly). Martin Luther shared YOUR opinion however, called out the Catholic Church for being greedy and exploiting people, and posted his theses. And that's how protestantism happened.
@ @@CartoonLab On his death bed where money was useless to him anymore so he gave it away, that is not a good deed at all, too late.
It is a very big mistake to think you can "buy your way out of hell"!

Shylock 😅
No blonde son? It cant be
Blacksmiths do not shoe horses, that is a farriers job.
The Blacksmith who specializes in forging shoes for horses is a "Farrier", but still a Blacksmith.
All because none of them were blond
No good morals.....BRUAHHH
The Father was a " usurer" which is someone who lends money with a high rate of interest. That practice continues today and no one likes these lenders. Reading the comments I shake my head as few understand " the morals" shown in this Folktale. Also for clarification to some comments below, A Blacksmith who "specializes" in forging shoes for horses is a Ferrier, but still a Black smith. I see reading the comments few took time to understand and learn from this story. Sad.
Do people really believe that God, who is kind and just, would sent even a single soul to hell? There is no deed on this earth that a person can perform that deserves eternal damnation. Hell was made for the souls of fallen angels who live far longer, and perform deeds much more cruel than any human ever could. Hell is not a place for the souls of men and women. His soul would only have turned away from gods love, nothingness, and not hell awaits him. For we have free will and we do not have to love God back if we do not wish to.
+shadusnox I suggest that you read the book of Revelation with an open mind, and see if you still believe exactly the same things.
This is singlehandedly the most kind thing I've ever heard a Christian say. (I myself do not follow any organized religion) It's refreshing to hear something like that after so many "fire and brimstone" jockeys.
Eh? You can’t buy your way out of hell lol, what was the point of Jesus dying then?! The Catholic system man!!! Can’t stand it
