The guy in the papers say we must spend our money wisely
Old lady : Beng, see the guy in the papers say we must spend our money wisely. Do not cincai ( simply spend ). Money huh is hard to earn. When I was small, I eat kira lucky liao lo ( I was lucky if I could find a bite ). Your Benghui! He don wan eat this eat that.
Not government faultlah everything go up. Everything oso go up. I sell things oso go up. Aiya Beng doing business must earn money one.The guy is rich. He no really understand a poor man.
There was an old rich man. One day his neighbour came over and begged for some rice.
Neighbour : Please, Ah Kiang, I haven’t had any rice for five days. I feel very weak.
Old rich man : Why don’t you eat some rice?
neighbour : I have no more rice, Sir. My family haven’t had any rice for five days already.
Old rich man : Ah Kiang, you are so silly. If no rice, eat noodles or bread or something. So silly. Go home you silly. Cook noodles.
Old lady : Oso the same lah. Man with money cannot undertherstand the susah (pains, griefs ) of a poor man. He no understand us poor people. Money is important for we poor people. Ah Moi bawa kopi satu dan suruh dia olang bawa wa mia camry pi servicing ” ( calling her Indonesian maid to bring her a cup of tea and some one to pick her Toyota Camry and send it for servicing. ) Beng, the cheque not readylah. You come back other day. I am so busy. I sign wrong. You see i sign wrong. I have no pen now. You come back tomorrow? Next week? Telephone firstlah next time.
she very cunning, trying to get out of paying you!
nolah..jus a delaying technique
aiyah! orang tuwa lah…
Hi beng, I Like your post.
Cant make out what she was saying but generally prices will go higher after the election for sure. Instead of worrying about that - we should concentrate making more money elsewhere.
that is true…and a n optimistic outlook
this is very funny. now i understand why marie antoinette was rumoured to have said’let them eat cake’ when told the people had no bread. haha. Your old lady has known a hard life, and is afraid of being poor.It can make her miserly. Next time, ask for payment in cash. haha.
money matters r never easy
