My friend who only needs two friends!

Have you ever thought of how many friends you need in your life?

Well, few days ago, my good friend told me that he only needs two friends in his life. One of them is me which made me feel really honored. However, he didn’t tell me who the other friend was.

This good friend of mine has an interesting character. I have known him for ages and I see him as an interesting person because his thinking is different from regular people. If you don’t know him, you would think that he is strange.

Well, I was a bit shocked when he told me he only needs two friends. I thought how could a person go through life with only two friends? He said what’s the point of having so many friends and most of them are not Relevant to you in life.

Have you ever thought of using the word “Relevant” to measure your friendship? I was wondering how he came out with this word. If I am going to use this word, I would say all my friends are relevant to me. Definitely they are there for some purposes or else they aren’t my friends anymore.

It is interesting to have this kind of friend because he makes me think. Maybe he is not very normal, but sometime he is right also. Even though I have so many friends in so many countries, but how many of them can really help me and listen to me when I have problem or when I feel depress? I would say only one who is becoming a priest soon. However, he is so far away and we can only communicate through email.

Thus, this made me think again, do I really need so many friends like most people or I only need a few friends like the interesting friend of mine?

The Foreign Mistresses

During my grandfather’s time, it was common for a man to have a few wives. The wives served their husband, gave birth to many children and also acted as servants of the house. However, from my parents’ time onwards, men can only legally have one wife. If they have another woman besides the wife, that woman becomes the mistress.

Recently it has become a trend for Malaysian men to keep young foreign women as mistresses. We are now flooded with these women, making them easily available.

I was amazed to find out that even fresh graduates in their twenties also kept mistresses as secret girlfriends even though they are already attached. Another young man at the age of 25 has even left his wife with two young children for them.

A lot of us were shocked when we found out how much money these women are capable of extracting from these men. We heard of a particularly wealthy married man who is only 38 years old with two young children. On a business trip to a foreign country, he met one of these women and decided to keep her as a mistress.

He brought her back to Malaysia and even bought a RM500K house for her. She then persuaded him to buy a few apartments in her home country for her mother to generate rental income. Every month he gives her lots of out-of-pocket expense money for living and gambling in the Genting Highlands Casino. Even her taxi bills come to more than a thousand a month. Recently she opened up a company of her own and used up more than RM300K of his money for capital. His poor wife knew but couldn't do anything about it because she is only a housewife and depends on him for everything.

Another rich man in KL keeps these women as mistresses on an annual contract basis. That means he changes his mistress annually. The agreement is for the duration of one year, the mistress will be given a platinum credit card for her spending whims and fancies. According to a reliable source, most spend up to RM50K a month just for shopping.

My cousin told me some agents in KL are selling name lists of rich men to these foreign women. These agents did their research and compiled all the important and rich men’s phone numbers into a list. When these women arrived in KL, they can buy the lists from the agents. On getting the lists, the cold calling starts. On contact, if the men get curious and show interest, they will be pursued.

A friend told me that it is common for these women to become mistresses to two or three men at the same time and without them being aware about it. They can have a man in KL and another in Kuching. Or both men could be in the same town. How they do it, is they know that one man (the main sponsor) can only visit them on certain days and they will ask the other man to come on their free days. Since their apartment is normally rented by the main sponsor, they will use their friend’s apartment for the second man. By doing this, the two men will never meet.

I am wondering why everybody in business is saying that the economy is not good at the moment and yet so much money is spent on these women. Have you ever wondered how much money is sent back to their home country every month? For all wives in Malaysia, if you are trying to save money all the time and never want to spend it on yourselves, you better rethink now. There are just too many attractions out there.
