It is sad that the younger brother believe that the house/land has to be sold for him to start his life. Only someone who doesn't have sense would have a property and sell it. The big brother is right in not selling; what is money? If he was really thinking he could have go to the bank and borrow against the land. But then again the older brother seems to know what type of person he is, and maybe will not sign in agreement. Well this time will help to start looking at life in a more responsible way.
