The words every minutes count is over. In the current economic downtime, peoples are talking about every cents count. I have made known a friend who is practicing on every cents count, I can’t describe him is a stingy person but I can say he is smart and he is rich. I used to have lunch with him for couple of time, he would checking foods prices before ordering even for a small drinks. The worst thing is that sometime he asked for discounts on the few dollar foods.
He is kind of person not keen to spend anything on you but he will pay whatever is belonging to him, so we have to practicing on American style every time we met, is means pay for our own foods and drinks. Sometime I feel embarrassing when making payment in the counter. Boss said “semua Rm2.50", He would said “Saya punya teh tarik, Berapa?"
Actually I don't like to practice on this way but got to follow him. I have told him that if I meet you in the last 10 years, I might be a millionaire now. One thing good is that I can have a peace of mind when meeting him, even though I only have two dollars in my pocket, because not needs to fork out extra money.
I can be friend with all kinds of peoples, and always believed that can learn something new from difference peoples. Even just a beggar, we should respect them, because we don’t know that if one day we are become a beggar too. If there is a time, we need to learn from them. Do you think to be a beggar is easy job? Do you know what timing and locations is good to do begging?
