However after dinner, I found a RM1 on the floor in the midst of a heavy traffic at the One Utama shopping mall.
I take it as a good omen. That will be the last time I gamble and I concluded that my luck is not gained through gambling. Nevertheless I am still a lucky guy.
The amount is not important. It's the sign that counts. Like I found ten 10 cents coins in ten different places in 2017 which is a ten.
This time it is RM1 in One U. It makes me feel very lucky indeed. I gave the money to Lizzie. I should have kept it. Who knows that [] my Ibu Duit (direct translation: Money Mother). Well honey by giving it to Lizzie, I am more or less saying she is my Money Mother isn't it?
Even the ten 10 cents coins I gave to Lizzie. Even if I have USD 100 million I still give it to Lizzie. All these years she is my magic purse.
Remember I told you that I read about the genie that grants people 3 wishes when I was a kid?
W[i]ll my 3 wishes are:
I want to be handsome:
Got it.
I want to be smart:
Got it too!
And I want a purse that never runs out of money:
Here she is baby LOL
Without Lizzie I would be out on the streets when I lost all my money (RM350 k of it) to a property scam. So as a consolation everything I own, the house, the car and my Employee Provident Fund go to her. I have a tiny trust fund in case I want to indulge myself once in a while like buying a handphone or treating myself to a gaysha (which since I met you is a past distance memory).
Other than that I got monthly pocket money from my daughter Balqis which I use to buy my simple utilities like clothes, shoes and perfumes.
I am a Light Traveler. I hardly spend money. It is fair then I don't hoard the money for myself. The wise thing to do is pass everything to Lizzie. In exchange I take daily ration from her for my lunch.
I used to spend RM800 per month on cigarettes. Since I quit smoking we now can afford a brand new car; which is cheaper than paying for cigarettes on a monthly basis.
Now baby, that doesn't mean I am an ascetic. I still enjoy a good cup of coffee but I buy at Ikea Cafe for RM3.50. Once in a blue moon I eat cheese cake and cappuccino. However I am not into indulgence. I buy them during special offer. I watch movies before 2:00 pm for RM6 (which is almost 60% off from the normal screening). Even that I'll do it max 3 times a year.
I bought my Adidas Supernova (2 of them at RM149 instead of RM650 retail price).
I think the real clincher is I stop having vices. Those things; booze cigarettes, dope and women are the money pit. I also don't loiter with friends at the coffee shops.
What can I say baby, I opted for Voluntary Simplicity and yet I am not poor. * I[] just not into material acquisition anymore.
* Well good for you Sarah. We are match made in heaven.

Hey baby, I think I'll go for my 3-in-1 coffee. Then I got to hang the clothes.
Later sweetie...
