What advice did Sai Baba give to Damu Anna Kasar regarding his plan to enter the cotton trade?

When Damu Anna Kasar of Nagar wrote a letter to Sai Baba seeking permission for a speculative cotton trade venture, Baba advised strongly against it. As recounted in Chapter 25, the letter was presented by Madhavrao (Shama). After it was read, Baba declared that "The Shet's mind has gone astray!" He instructed Shama to reply with the message, "Half a loaf of bread is enough for us; do not fall into the trap of millions." This counsel emphasized contentment with one's current state and warned against the dangers of chasing immense wealth, which disappointed Damu Anna greatly.
