You sure or not?Originally posted by mistyblue:If he's that poor, tell him to stop buying all those bikini to wear and shoot. And also sell his camera phones to stop taking lousy pics of himself in those bikini to frighten little kids on the net.
And dont make it sound as if everyone who carries some branded stuff is rich. Some people actually save up for them. Others like me don't won brands and I eat colleague's dinner leftovers for lunch. So its free. Hence don't come and talk about dare or not. If you dare to ask colleagues for their dinner left overs, anything is possible.
Like poor thing like that... -
i tried, but realised that bread + water is more filling.Originally posted by shade343:Have you survived on nothing but a glass of water 6 times a day? -
There is nothing wrong what. I don't mind doing that and i don't think anyone care also. Personally, i don't go after brand in clothings and stuff. As long as look nice, i'll take it. Don't need bathing ape or whatever. Furthermore, wearing all those nike, bathing ape, pmk and stuff makes you look very typical and not cool at all. Whereas for shoes, i guess it is more like a need because, lesser known brands are usually very heavy/ inflexible/ made of cheap material.
Frankly, if you think that eating a 30cent bowl of rice is very humiliating, it goes to show how little confidence you have in yourself. Also, i can tell that you are trying very hard to prove yourself in life though your words. I maybe wrong, but im usually right. -

i know many people see me dress will think i am poor but the fact is dat even if i earn 10K a mth i oso will wear the same....to me, clothes are meant to protect u...its just a fabric....dun get too concerned over it...cotton is cotton, the material used in branded wear is the same as those u find elsewhere.
i oso bring bread to work, 1 loaf will last me a week cos i eat 2 slices a day. almost all the people think i am a poor man....dunno y got this mentality. eating bread in office = poor ? WTF ?! don't people living in condo or semi-Ds eat bread ? food in canteen not to my liking, so i only eat papaya and a yogurt drink during tea-break most of the time and use bread to fill my stomach later on....less oil, less salt oso....
alot of people dunno how to think one lah...they think merrymaking and beautiful stuff is all it matters, got 1 phrase 'haven earn $ then know how to spend larvishly'...applies here perfectly...dats y have grads thinking a 2K job is too low for them and they dun even bother... -
I have people's leftovers. Nothing wrong. I do not eat free lunches. In return I listen to her talk about her frustrations at work, at home and etc. And also I offered to help massage the pain away from her hand/arms because she never took care of her hands and over exert all the time even when I told her to find ways to reduce her load. She refuses to listen. She is getting so much better she again began to push herself and exert even more and then the cycle of massage always have to be maintained. I know indirectly she is abusing the offer I made her. But anyways I usually give more than I take. Hence its not free lunch. I work for it. And yes, it is other people's left overs.Originally posted by TooFree:You sure or not? Like poor thing like that... -

try buying 1 chicken wing each for all of a construction site's workers for all the 3 meals for 7 days...............Originally posted by dakkon_blackblade:I've seen the Bangladeshi workers in my army camp eat plain rice, without sauce even. Makes me feel just a little bit wanna go canteen and buy some chicken wing for those poor souls...

assuming 1 construction site has 100 workers and 1 chicken wing costs $1...........Originally posted by Mr Fugue:try buying 1 chicken wing each for all of a construction site's workers for all the 3 meals for 7 days...............
for the 100 workers, I day worth of chicken wings = $300
7 days worth of chicken wings = $300 x 7 = $2,100
