I used to think that, money is important, but not everything.
Starting from, drinking. I need to pay for it. An ice-kosong now costs RM 0.50.
Followed by eating. In PJ area, the cheapest rice with 1 vegetable cost me around RM 1.50- RM2.
Then, transport. To tour around Klang Valley, I think, the minimum amount I have to spend is RM 2. I can take Rapid KL and reuse the ticket for whole day. If I take LRT or Metrobus, it is going to cost more. Car? I need more than RM 1000 to get one.
Place to stay? The cheapest place that I am aware of now is RM 200, per month.
Study? Assume that I don't go for class. I buy myself photocopied materials, say, 100 pages. That costs me RM 0.04*100= RM 4.
Let us move one to greater one.
I want to go for tour? Just talk about the most frequent and easiest touring- Shopping. It takes me transportation expenses, drinks, if the time is long, meals. And shopping, the expenses can go almost uncounted number. O, yea, if I don't want, I may want to have a walk in the garden of my condo. Oops, sorry. If I want to have a condo, I can either purchase it at RM 300k or around that, or, I rent it at RM 200 per month. No free tour for me. Sorry.
I want to earn money? Alright. I want to send resume, I need computer. Buy a computer? Prepare myself at least RM 1000. If not, cyber cafe might be a good place. 1 hour, RM1. O man. I hate working. So troublesome. What about starting my own business? Come on! What can I give the market, if I have no money to create it, process it, hire people to do? Alright. Assume that I do everything myself. I still need to eat, and drink and sleep... and they are not cost-free.
Alright, well, I have brain. I can sell it. But, O no! Who knows that I got brain? I have to prove it! Erm... prove that I have brain... perhaps, by exams? O man! I forgot, people charge exam fee!
Alright. Selling brain doesn't work. I sell my muscle. I am powerful. I can do heavy works. I can stand hot weather, cold weather, light, darkness. I am not afraid. Oops! I fall sick! I don't have insurance coverage! O, man, I should have owned an insurance coverage. But wait... how much should I pay for insurance premium?
O~ I have no way. If I have nothing in my pocket, I can't continue. I beg perhaps. In Pudu Raya. Argh, I don't know which one is faster: Collecting enough money for a meal, or the speed of getting hungry...
O gosh! I have no more way. I have to go home. Yea, home sweet home. At home, I think at home I don't have to think about money. Yea yea, I know, I should not just wait for people to feed me. I should go to work also... But... to the very least... they will not dislike me because I have no money gua... I can work later one...
Haha. Yea, they won't kick you out. They might not scold you directly. Because they give you face. But one thing: They will think that you are rubbish. They are waiting for you to say: "I have caused you much trouble. I think I should leave now."
One of my female tutor said this before: Don't buy me flowers. Don't buy me this and that. Just give me cash, or give me diamonds in Valentines. That is how your show me sincerity.
Well, final voice: "If you don't have money, you better shut up."
