???
Profit😀

I don't drink. I don't eat out.
Hell, I miss a lot of potential dates having "frugal minimalist" label on Bumble profile.
But it's so satisfying to see my Saving Rate float above 50% by end of each month 🙌

To be a nerd is to be socially awkward, and there are two distinct ways to do that:
1) to be playing the same game as everyone else, but badly,
2) and to be playing a different game.
What would you choose?

Earn 675M dongs gross profit at 50% margin/month.

In a free market an inefficient business model loses market share and gets bought out.
Then it’s converted to the efficient model.

People can finally refinance personal loans in Vn.
Unfortunately it wont benefit borrowers as you would expect.
Unless…
- Government stops weakening currency policy
- Banks adopts automatic scoring systems
- Society shifts from shadow economy

3k-9k USD, that is price for a night with former vn beauty queens and high profile ladies.
Seems a risky business given they could serve prison time for it.
Instead they could earn same or less on Twitch🧐

Just tipped 50% a Hanoi Grab bike driver, who:

- Dont violate traffic rules
- Communicates respectfully
Make HN traffic better and support good drivers👍

Walking 30 mins around Hanoi feels like smkoing 2 cigaretes.
I dont think wearing a mask makes any difference.
Locals pays huge pollution tax by driving bikes and cars everytime they go out. Hence worsening the situation.
