bad news!
It’s an unexpected bad news for me. Last week, my hsemate has decided to move out from my condo in January.. on the other hand, the contract will expire soon.. so he had decided to negotiate with the owner in order to renew our contract as well as lowering the rental by rm100, which is used to be rm1500.. this had to be done in order to get some1 to rent his room..
Everything is running smoothly, where my hsemate had convinced the owner, who is a
Stingy businessman to reduce the rental…however, it turned out to be a nightmare 1 day later where the owner decided to stop renting the hse to us. The only reason given was that the rental was not acceptable.. I wonder why is he so money minded? He is an old man, aged around 65.. at his age, he should be enjoying life but in fact he is so serious with this.. I pity him!! not angry!! Because he will be in trouble with renting out his condo with such a high price. he looked down at students, and he will never realize that he has lost a big sum of $ , just because of not reducing rm100..
Imaging the condo is rented out 2months latter after we moved out, he lost rm2800 for not collecting any $ within this period.. when he can rent it out at a price of rm1500 two mths latter, he needs 28 mths to gain back his loss.. isn’t it a stupid decision? In addition, renting the hse to students here are better since our life are simple.. what if he has rented it to outsiders who make it in a mess? why are ppl nowadays so materialistic??
I had just found a room to stay with 2 days ago. Thx god!!! So worry with it cos finding rooms is not easy in the sense that you need to consider what kind of hsemates you hv.. luckily my hsemates are my ex-schmates.. so happy, yeah!!! Will be moving in next yr early jan.. I will miss my “QUEEN” size bed very much! and also the spacious living room with big, comfortable sofa..
Lesson of the story: pls don’t be so money minded, you will lose a big deal unintentionally by being so calculating.. this is the stupidest ppl in the world!!!
