Money Not Enough

When we first started the Bridal Room project, we said we'd do the bare minimal since our place in KL will be ready next year... likely in March... And believe me, we really did... At every opportunity, we tried to save money... like the bed for instance... instead of a King-sized bed, we went for a Queen-sized one, went for clearance and warehouse sale to get discounted items, buy direct from factories etc etc. But guess what, try as we might... we've still spent over 10K... So the next time if you hear others grumbling that our money is worth so much lesser these days than before, IT'S TRUE!!! No wonder they have movies called "Money Not Enough" part 1 and 2!!!
