With a little bit of luck…

Well, with a little bit of luck, I could have recouped all the money I had spent on my car these past few weeks but sadly, that was not meant to be…

I had a flat tyre one evening for no obvious reason – they could not find a puncture in it, but I decided to get the tyre changed anyway. I wouldn’t want the risk of getting stuck somewhere…and that cost over RM100. That same morning, I decided to get my car air-conditioner serviced as it was not cold enough for me – and that took away another RM100 plus. Then, the other day, I discovered a leakage in my car and had to get the radiator pump – the main source of the problem as well as the radiator changed, plus a whole lot of other things and the bill came up to a whooping RM667.00. All in all, that totalled around RM1K! Sigh!!!

Then on Wednesday, my car number came out 2nd prize – RM1K! But unfortunately, I didn’t buy…

My missus bought a few ringgit, so she was of course, jumping for joy. It seemed that she told my outlaws…I mean, my in-laws about my car dripping and they said that they should go and buy my number. Yeah…they struck it rich too…but not me! Sulk! Sulk! I should have seen the signs too. The puncture and the aircon = wind (fong) and the leaking radiator = water (shui), and putting that together = “fong shui”…

Ah well…I guess it is just not meant to be and I would just have to go on working hard for the money to pay the bills and put food on the table and hopefully, manage to make ends meet somehow. But as Tevye (Topol) says in the following clip, “O dear Lord, You made many, many poor people. I realise, of course, it’s no shame to be poor, but it’s no great honour either. So what would have been so terrible…if I had a small fortune?“

“…You decreed I should be what I am. Would it spoil some vast eternal plan, if I were a wealthy man!!!” LOL!!!

Hope you all enjoyed the clips/songs and do have a lovely weekend, everybody!
