As I was coming out of a cashier
counter of a supermarket, I saw someone I had not met for a long while paying
the cashier at another counter so I went up to the end of the counter and
waited for him.
As soon as he came out of the counter, he handed me RM50 which was part of the change he held in his hand. I was surprised but I took the money. Without saying a word, he went on his way.

The guy must have been embarrassed to
see me as he had owed me nearly RM1K for years. I had not chased him for it. In
fact, I had forgotten about it after I had lost contact with him.
The RM50 was better than nothing as I knew I would have to say goodbye to the rest of the money he owed me. It would be the same with rather a few others who owed me money. I gave them the loans when I was gainfully employed. I was a sucker to their sob stories when they sought my help.

Money, says the proverb, makes money. When you have got a little, it is often easy to get more. The great difficulty is to get that little.
