Show Me The Money
Things are getting bad in the office. Just heard about the Derivatives department. We may be next.
The Director just told us about the bonus this year.
I don’t know how to tell Hui Leng.
We may not be able to afford the wedding with so many tables.
Next week is the ring trip. That’s another headache.
Why do diamond rings have to cost so much?
Leng’s mom is coming along. I cannot lose face in front of her. I cannot make Leng lose face too.

Hey bro. You okay or not? Talk to the Boonster, man. You know I am your best of the best friend and you can always count with me.

I know I can always count on you, Boon. I’m just very stressed out.

Why? Your bonus is always very good. Not like me, every month just enough to survive. Don’t even have enough to take a girl out.

Don’t tell this to Leng but I am not getting the usual 12 months bonus this year.

6 months bonus is also quite good, right?

I don’t think you understand. There is NO bonus this year. In fact, there is talk of retrenchment in my department. Derivatives already let half the team go. And in this climate, nobody is hiring, especially bankers.

That sounds bad. You really don’t want to tell Hui Leng?

I may have to sell the car. I really want to make Hui Leng happy and if it’s a big wedding and big ring she wants, I want to try to give it to her.

No, not the car! How will we be able to go on our driving trips in JB?

A car is just a car. Leng matters much more to me.

But that was a gift from your father with sentimental value too! Haiz. Don’t worry brother, I will check the forums for you to get the best deal for your car if you really have to sell it.

Thanks, man. You are a brother indeed.

Why did you choose to marry at this time?

Follow the western tradition. Get a ring from your mother or grandmother, have it resize and give it to your wife-to-be.
