If only

I should have known leh. Really.

Wah rao. I dont understand how come my father and my brother has no savings for themselves one leh. Especially my father, he has been working for 30 yrs already, why is it that he have no savings at all?

I confess I am very selfish when it comes to money, and I try to save more every mth, but because of my spending habits, I dont get to save much.

So I am very pissed when my brother tried to borrow $800 from me last yr. I ended up lending him $300 only. I do have the money, but I really bu shuang why I must be this walking bank?

He ended up repaying $100 per mth for 3 mths. 1 mth after he finished that bit, he borrowed ANOTHER $300 again.

Vicious cycle I tell you.

I always maintain that, when you lend ppl amt in a chunk, you are parting with a fraction of yourself. When this person return you the money is small proportions, it doesnt feel that the earlier hole was covered.

Really lor, when he returned me the $100 a mth, I ended up having more karaoke sessions only. I didnt return the money to my bank acct. I am not disciplined I know, but I bet I am not the only one who will lapse into such convenience. So I really hate it to have to lend ppl money.

If it wasnt that he's my brother, I WOULD NOT EVEN CONSIDER!

Now leh, my father borrowed $500 from me. I just collected back the 2nd $300 from my brother now I have to part with my money again!!!! Angry la!

Last thurs he said he wants to borrow $500 from me and will return me by chq. Fri night when I gave him the money, he said he would give me the cheque the next day.

I told him ok and he sd he will postdated it to monday. (Narrows eyes in anger).

I said ok again he said he thinks it is best to postdated it to tuesday just in case!!!!!!!!!

Ok ok ok ok ok. I anything. So I waited for his cheque. He got sore eyes over the weekend so I didnt harp on the cheque issue.

Just now he told my mother (who just returned from shanghai) that recently situations are bad. He told her he borrowed $500 from me, and then he told me he will return me the $500 next month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KNS!!!!!

Now only 3 oct leh. Next mth is really one whole mth away leh!!!!

I know you may think I very gey gao, why I save very long for each dollar that I have leh. I dont see why I must give them the convenience.
