In fact all people talk about money. In Sillypore, the stupid cost of living is so high and now the stupid increase in oil price escalated every thing.

My baxa is very much affect by the current situation. Every now and than, she will say that things in Vietnam are getting very expensive. Furthermore her family (father, mother and youngest brother who is still schooling) depends very much on her for money. She say that her elder brother (useless) got wife, so it if difficult for him to worry much about father and mother. Her elder sister got husband (useless) and a baby, so her sister can only worry for husband and baby. 1 younger brother (hardworking) who got a wife recently also needs to worry own family. She being not married yet, will have to take care and provide money for her father (owe money), mother (easily sick) and youngest brother (schooling). So she needs to find ways to get the money. Lucky she got a girlfriend who gives her the lobang to sell own clothes using their boss shop. I supported by providing the capital for her to start up. Now this is not enough as inflation in Vietnam is high.

Bro, for this, i may want to disagree with u. Its not the current situation that vietnamese talked about money all the time. When things were cheap and life was easier way back in 2002 and 2003, they were all out talking about money. Talking about money is one thing, but they are also all out to try all sorts of ways, even without pride, to get that money. These are the vietnamese. Its in their blood.
