Variations on a famous saying by Lao Tzu, Chinese philosopher:
"Give a man a fish, and he’ll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish …
… and you get rid of him for an entire weekend."
… and he’ll bore you for a lifetime."
... and he’ll go into debt to buy a bass boat."
… and you’ll find bait in your fridge."
… and he’ll sit in a boat all day, drinking beer."
Any others?
