If you are not valued, do not be angry, it means that you are in the wrong place.

I like to give credit where credit is due, I would in this case but do not know who wrote it. It is very very good...

Father said to his son: You graduated with honors, here is a car that I acquired many years ago ... it is old. But before I give it to you, take it to the used car lot and tell them I want to sell it and see how much they offer you. The son went to the used car lot, returned to his father and said, "They offered me $1,000 because it looks very worn out."

The father said, "Take the car to the pawn shop." The son went to the pawn shop, returned to his father and said, "The pawn shop offered $100 because it was a very old car." 

The father asked his son to go to a car club and show them the car. The son took the car to the club, returned and told his father: “People at the club offered $100,000 for it, since it's a Nissan Skyline R34, iconic car and sought after by many.

The father said to his son, "I wanted you to know that the right place values you the right way." … If you are not valued, do not be angry, it means that you are in the wrong place. Those who know your value are those who appreciate you, and never stay in a place where no one sees your value...

I read it in Spanish first, so this is probably a translation. Still, the lesson is universal.

Pretty good story and lesson. This unfortunately wouldn't have taken place in the U.S. though. R34s are illegal in the US, and are still under the 25 year import law. Additionally, the RB26DETT engine would probably not pass emissions. I can't wait til these are legal to be imported. Value will skyrocket. This looks like something that could have been featured in Jalopnik.
