Answer 2

The proverb ‘A fig for the doctor when cured’ means to reward a person when the goal is achieved.

EXPLANATION:

‘A fig for the doctor when cured’ is an old Indian proverb. In olden days doctors were considered to be a part of the family. They were not paid for their visits. Tokens of rewards were given to them only when they managed to cure a patient.

In today’s world our actions are only rewarded if they are fruitful. Our employers reward us only when we achieve our target. If we fail we receive no increment or bonus. Thus all rewards are presented only after a successful output.
