I completely understand where you’re coming from, but for a lot of gamers physical discs are the only way they could afford to play games because they could get them secondhand. You can also give games to your younger siblings Which is a great way to introduce them to the games you were playing.

Most importantly though, as we saw from PlayStation this past week, if the media we buy is only digital, it can be taken away from us at a moment’s notice with no recourse. Imagine that, one day your entire library of games could be deleted overnight because technically you don’t own it.

Fresh grad bujang gaji RM3,000.
Take-home cuma RM2,634.35.

Tak bayar sewa.
Tak ada ansuran kereta.
Tak ada PTPTN.

Tapi bila campur petrol, tol, parking, maintenance, phone, internet, elektrik, makan, dapur, simpanan kecil & hiburan asas, baki atas kertas tinggal sekitar RM344 saja.

Itu pun belum masuk minyak/tol hujung minggu, parking bila keluar, servis besar kereta, roadtax, insurans, kecemasan kecil.

Jadi masalah dia bukan boros.

Masalah dia ialah kos untuk sekadar pergi kerja dan hidup secara normal pun sudah mengunyah hampir habis gaji.

Yang buat RM3,000 nampak “masih lepas” bukan sebab gaji itu besar.
Yang buat ia lepas ialah sebab sewa, hutang kereta dan PTPTN belum gigit lagi.

Metmalaysia doing pc is when you should really start worrying.

the problem is that we don't "randomly cut everything by 10-35%." when it comes to austerity, the first things on the chopping block are always education, healthcare, and aid to the poor. why don't we first try "randomly" chopping corporate welfare and "see what happens?"

Da pernah jumpa budak 15 tahun bersalin tapi takde apa2 utk baby? Takde duit beli baju, tak pandai urus baby. Kena marah dgn suami yg umur 18 tahun sebab tak pandai masak. Suami tak bagi pakai perancang. Naik basikal pergi check up perut sorang2.

Taco is:
- Male
- About 6 weeks old (based on his teeth)
- 245 grams

He's been dewormed, and is parvo free (for now). I am boarding him for today, so I have time to prep his indoor accommodations.

Hoping to foster him until he gets adopted, so this thread will be his record.

Today, we mourn the death of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, gunned down.... wait, I'm sorry - today we mourn the deaths of the 68,000 Americans who needlessly die each year so that insurance company execs like Brian Thompson can become multimillionaires.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential.

Due to a myriad of reasons, cooking your own meals in Malaysia - once you factor in your time - does not make very much sense in terms of cost 😅 It is cheaper to eat out for most ppl unless you have somebody at home who specifically is tasked w cooking, which most don’t have

This is what we said

"“..co-payments could result in people cancelling their insurance policies, electing to take their chances with the public healthcare system, and actually increasing the demand and load in government clinics and hospitals."

Well, it's happening. Health insurance premiums are increasing at least 40-70%.

Bank Negara thought this wld cause people to take up co-pay schemes. Instead, ppl are dumping their insurance altogether cus they cannot afford it anymore.

Well done.

Healthy food is expensive and time consuming, things people in minimum wage or even M40 cannot afford. B40 barely can afford protein regularly. The cost of food doubles when you choose healthier less carb focussed diets. And healthy eating doesn't mean free from disease
