God’s Salt & Light

well, this little topic came up yesterday when i was having lunch with a couple of my friends. Tat time we had finished our first main exam paper. Btw, which was ok i guess. Sure to pass. Not sure of the grades. Haha

Anyways….lunch was finished. Newspapers were out. Needed to relax after 2hrs of brain squeezing. Anyway….it all started innocently enough with……money.

Talking abt money was always a debatable issue for me. Lolz. I mean we jsut chatted abt our spending and stuff. wat we gona do after out exams and stuff and shit like tat.

And i was amazed how much money Jeff had to spend on. And he goes u knw…his father has his own business, money comes in all the time. Well. wat a happy family. unlike me. So u knw. money aint easy to come by. And if u wanna get ,married, well, u’ll be needing lots of it.  But my dear  friend here  says he  cant wait to get married.  And i said "Save up, u’ll need lots of it….". He goes "Oh? Ya meh?"

"Like duh! Ur the groom. u Gotta pay for all that stuff and things and who knws wat crap." "The wedding dinner, the tux, rental, house?"

Jeff goes "House? I rent lar"

"Look buddy, if ur gonna pay for RM1000 rent a month, id rather u buy a house. It will be yours after 30 years, if its a house in KL"

"30 years??!!!"

"Yeah, wat u expect? if ure gonna live in a rented house for 30 years u wud have paid RM360 000, so, get a house instead!"

"OH, ok ok"

Back to wedding expenses, "And dont forget the brides dowry"

Jayson agrees "Yah yah"

"At least 5 figures……..99999.99"  (*cant u girls skip the 99 cents???)

Jeff "WAh, so many meh? Need meh"

I said "Come on lar. its at least tradition. U duno meh?"

Jeff "No wor……..and need so much meh"

"Come on lar Jeff? U tink getting a wife is so easy meh? It takes blood sweat and tears man. U tink ur wife only cost RM10 meh? If tats the case by now everyone wud have got married! U cant expect ur wife to be so cheap…..Its not like u go to the Kedai RM2 and pay 2 bucks then u get ur wife! Haiyo, some more those stuff are made in China."

Jeff was speechlees…..

Anyways then we went on to family money, and Jeff comes in again,

"My money is also my mums money. And my dads money is my mums money. So My dads money is also my money. Coz we always share our spending like tat"

I came in….."………so your wife is also your dad’s wife?"
