A woman revealed her success story of painstakingly accumulating 20 Malaysian Ringgit (MYR) bills for a family trip over the previous four years. The incident became viral on the internet, provoking debate among internet users.
The woman, a cosmetics artist, said on Facebook on July 31st that they didn’t have a specific saving habit until four years ago when they discovered the 20 MYR savings strategy. After discussing it with her husband, they agreed to use this procedure because they were impressed by its efficiency.
“We generally don’t spend the 20 MYR notes unless there are special circumstances.”
She uploaded a photo of a basket filled with many 20 MYR banknotes, saying,
“I’m going to use this money to travel.”
She mentioned that unknowingly, the 20 MYR savings method became a habit, and the progressive savings allowed them to accumulate a five-figure sum, enough for a family trip for four.
The woman with the surname Huang recently shared with the media outlet “WeirdKaya” that this savings method is “not challenging.”
“Our idea is simple, just save as much as possible, without putting any effort into saving 20 MYR.”
“When we receive change, we naturally save it.”
Despite the fact that most consumers now use e-wallets, she stated that they occasionally don’t have much cash on hand, but she also doesn’t have the practise of using e-wallets.
Nonetheless, she stated her intention to continue using the 20 MYR banknote savings approach. Even though she has enough money for her August trip, she has no intention of giving up the habit.
“It’s become a habit now.” I save 20 MYR notes whenever I come upon them.”
