No Money No Honey

Girl A : Hey, look at what he got me for Valentine's Day
Girl B : Wow this must be expensive .....( with envy )
Girl C : Huh, mine is better !

Valentine's Day is a highly commercial event in Hong Kong. Everywhere in Tsim Sa Tsui was packed with couples with the girls beaming in the arm of their "honeys" who had to balance huge bouquets and giant Hello Kitty on the other arm. I was told that on average every guy had to fork out RM1000 at least for Valentine's Day ( dinner, chocolate and flowers ). The essence of which is well summed up in this common phrase in Hong Kong: "No money. No honey" ( in Hongkie pronunciation please). Gee Malaysian guys, don't you count yourself lucky!
