[mhelskie]

tsk tsk, ang bait nman nun sa mga friends nya...kaso walang naiwang bait sa sarili....baliw yannn!!! adikkk!!! LOL!

same thing also happens with some OFWs. I know a few former japayukis (i hang with former japayukis, i cant help it) who are still working their butts off here. They should have made millions (and saved millions) but the thing is, they and their dependents/families spend all the money on useless stuff. So from zero to millions to zero again.

They do not have the capability to manage the mound of money that is suddenly before them.... Their first instinct is to spend and spend and spend, because they're not used to spending,- until they realize that there are no more to spend..... Easy come, easy go... Living for the day....

*sigh*... so true... a lot of people who aren't used to handling lots of money, can't. It's not just bums, or even education... it's just money-smarts.

People, when they see that much money, or have that much money, spend more as befits their "station" in life. I've heard people complain that you can't live here on just 30,000 pesos a month or 50,000 pesos a month. Tosh! Of course you can! Just don't try to live like a person who makes 50,000 a month! :rofl01:

It's the social expectation... that if you have this much money... this is how you should live.

I don't believe that that bum deserves to be a bum forever... try giving him 100,000 dollars now and see how he spends it, now that he's learned his lesson.

he's been deprived so long, what he did was the natural thing... splurge! it's human nature i guess.

after he gets thru with it he'll be expecting another $100,000 :twak:

Well, a lot of people just doesn't know how to manage their cash/finance. May nanalo pa nga ng milyon sa lotto tapos after a while balik hirap na naman.
