What is the primary theme of the new story introduced in Chapter 47?

Chapter 47 sets the stage for a new narrative by first referencing the previous chapter's story about the goats. The narrator then explicitly asks listeners to pay close attention to a story intended to illustrate a specific moral lesson. As stated directly in Chapter 47, the central theme of this upcoming account is to demonstrate "how the extreme state of greed for wealth leads to a downfall." The chapter emphasizes that this story, originating from Sai Baba himself, is meant to provide happiness and contentment to those who hear it, while serving as a cautionary tale about the perils of avarice.
